RESUMEN
Los pacientes sometidos a tiroidectomía total habitualmente tras la cirugía no pasan el postoperatorio inmediato en UCI. En nuestro estudio, tras analizar una serie de cuarenta y cinco casos que ingresaron en nuestra unidad y valorar las posibles complicaciones que se pueden producir en el postoperatorio de la cirugía tiroidea, se justifica el ingreso del paciente al menos en las primeras horas del postoperatorio inmediato. Los pacientes ingresados se benefician de la vigilancia continua (hemodinámica, monitorización de calcemia, valoración de herida quirúrgica y sangrado, etc.) prestada por el personal de enfermería, de tal forma que la detección de las posibles complicaciones se realiza precozmente (AU)
ABSTRACT
Patients subject to total thyrodectomy are not usually treated after surgery in the ICU. After analyzing a series of 45 patients which were admitted in our unit and evaluating the possible complications that could arise in the postoperative of thyroid surgery, we justified their admission at least during the first few hours after immediate surgery. The patients admitted benefit from continuous haemodynamic surveillance, monitorization of calcemia, evaluation of surgical wound and bleeding, supplied by nursing staff to enable the early detection of the possible complications of this type of surgery (AU)
