The Effect of Head Position During Thyroidectomy on Cerebral Oxygenation and Postoperative Cognitive Functions

The aim of our study is to observe the effect of head-neck position of patients scheduled for thyroidectomy, on carotid artery blood flow, regional cerebral oxygen saturation measured using near-infrared spectroscopy technology, and postoperative cognitive dysfunction.
