Evaluating Impact of Near Infrared Autofluorescence (NIRAF) Detection for Identifying Parathyroid Glands During Parathyroidectomy

Description

This study will see if the use of near infrared autofluorescence (NIRAF) detection with an FDA-cleared device 'Parathyroid Eye (PTeye)' for identifying parathyroid glands (PGs) during parathyroidectomy (PTx) procedures is better than a surgeon's detection alone. It compares risk-benefits and outcomes in PTx patients where NIRAF detection with PTeye for parathyroid identification is either used or not used.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

For general information about clinical research, read Learn About Studies.

Eligibility Criteria

  • * Primary hyperparathyroidism who will be undergoing parathyroid surgery
  • * Persistent primary hyperparathyroidism after having undergone a failed prior parathyroid surgery who will be undergoing repeat parathyroid surgery
  • * Pregnant women (Those patients who could potentially will receive preoperative pregnancy testing, as is standard before general anesthesia. Any patients with positive pregnancy test results will not be included in the study.)
  • * Patients with concurrent parathyroid and thyroid disease that require total thyroidectomy
  • * Patients with secondary or tertiary hyperparathyroidism
