Study population: bilateral intermediate cervical plexus block for thyroid nodule or parathyroid adenoma

Brief summary: The aim of this study was evaluated the feasibility of bilateral intermediate cervical plexus blockade to be anesthesia for simple thyroid/parathyroid surgery.

Detailed description: Bilateral intermediate cervical plexus blocks have been reported for thyroid/parathyroid surgery. This technique combined with intravenous sedation has used with safety in patients undergoing simple thyroid or parathyroid surgery. Simple surgery is defined as the thyroid conditions are not cancer, redo or substernal goiter.

Eligibility criteria: Inclusion Criteria:

* patient underwent thyroid/parathyroid surgery under nerve blocks and sedation

Exclusion Criteria:

* incomplete opioid consumption or pain score record.

Primary outcomes:

Secondary outcomes:
measure: opioid usage
timeFrame: intraoperative
measure: dypnea
timeFrame: intraoperative
measure: pain score within 24 hours
timeFrame: within 24 hours postoperative
