Clinical features and nursing strategies of reexploration for hematomas after thyroid surgery: insights from a 7-year single-center study in China.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
objectiveTo explore clinical characteristics of postoperative hemorrhage following thyroid or parathyroid surgery, and to discuss the nursing strategies for its prevention.
methodsA retrospective analysis was conducted on all patients who underwent thyroid or parathyroid surgery from February 2016 to September 2023. The clinical data of patients who experienced postoperative hemorrhage and required reoperation were collected and analyzed.
resultsAmong the 5579 patients who underwent surgery, 42 patients experienced postoperative hemorrhage and required reoperation. Hemorrhage occurred within 6 h in 19 cases (45.2%) and within 24 h in 35 cases (83.3%). The most common bleeding sites were the anterior cervical muscle group (44.2%) and branches of the superior or inferior thyroid artery (20.9%). Underlying diseases such as hypertension, diabetes, hemophilia, and postoperative activities like neck movements, coughing, vomiting, and drainage tube manipulation were potential risk factors for postoperative hemorrhage. Clinical manifestations of postoperative hemorrhage included neck swelling or tightness, increased drainage fluid with clots, incision bleeding, pain, skin bruising, and worsening dyspnea.
conclusionUnderstanding the potential risk factors and characteristics of postoperative hemorrhage in thyroid surgery is crucial for specialized thyroid nursing care, as it can aid in its prevention and treatment.
