The CNM group demonstrated a significant reduction in postoperative RLN palsy compared to the non-CNM group.
Overall incidence of RLN palsy was 11.9%, with the CNM group at 6.0% and the non-CNM group at 29.4%.
Continuous nerve monitoring was found to be an independent factor for reducing the risk of RLN palsy.
Patients with CNM had shorter hospital stays and lower rates of postoperative pneumonia.
