Popis: | Background: We aimed to assess the predictive value of the absolute and relative intact parathormone (iPTH) decline levels as reliable markers of postoperative hypocalcemia. Materials & methods: iPTH levels were measured 4 h after surgery and the following morning after surgery (postoperative day 1). iPTH, absolute iPTH decline (ΔPTH) and relative iPTH decline (ΔPTH%) were calculated and correlated with symptomatic hypocalcemia. Results: Of the 95 patients, 20% of patients (n = 19) developed symptomatic hypocalcemia. The ΔPTH (U = 206; p |
