In recent years, the incidence of thyroid tumors has rapidly increased, leading to a corresponding rise in the number of thyroid surgeries performed annually. Postoperative bleeding and resultant airway compression are the most dangerous complications after thyroid surgery, and in severe cases, can result in death, posing potential medical disputes. Providing necessary professional training is crucial to enhance early recognition of postoperative bleeding and airway compression after thyroid surgery. Timely and appropriate management of postoperative bleeding and airway compression can prevent further complications and irreversible consequences. In addition, the management of complications related to postoperative bleeding after thyroid surgery requires a multidisciplinary team (MDT) involving surgeons, anesthesiologists, and nursing staff. Based on extensive clinical experience and literature review, and grounded on evidence-based medicine, experts from relevant fields in Hunan province have developed a "Consensus on the Prevention and Management of Postoperative Bleeding after Thyroid Surgery", so as to improve surgical safety, reduce the incidence of postoperative bleeding, and facilitate timely detection and management.
