ABSTRACT
Hypocalcemia following thyroid surgery is one of the most frequent complications, a situation that prolongs hospital stay and increases the costs of the procedure. Predictive factors should be investigated to administer calcium to at-risk patients in order to decrease the severity of symptoms and shorten hospitalization. In the Carlos Andrade Marín Hospital, elective thyroid surgery is the third surgical procedure in frequency, of cholecystechias and hernioplasties. Of particular importance is the early detection of complications arising from this surgery. (AU)
