Background
Postoperative sleep disturbance
THYROID NODULES
The incidence of thyroid nodules has increased significantly in recent years, and surgical removal is a common treatment. Postoperative sleep disturbance is still a serious problem in the current surgical environment. In this study, we explored whether intraoperative lidocaine infusion could improve the quality of sleep over 7 days and 30 days after surgery and postoperative recovery for patients undergoing thyroid surgery.
