The purpose of this paper was to explore the prevalence and reasons for the usage of IONM in endocrine surgery in Australia and New Zealand.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>A survey was sent to general surgeons registered with the Royal Australasian College of Surgeons involved in endocrine surgery and members of the Australian and New Zealand Endocrine Surgeons. Users were divided into surgeon type, area of work, hospital type and volume of surgery. These data were analysed with univariate and multivariate logistic regression models.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Significant differences in IONM usage levels were observed between endocrine and general surgeons, area of work and volume of surgery performed. Endocrine surgeons are significantly more likely to use IONM than general surgeons. Surgeons who work in tertiary hospitals are more likely to use IONM as compared to those working in district hospitals. Surgeons who perform less than 100 thyroidectomies were more likely to be users of IONM.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>IONM is not routinely used in thyroid surgery in Australia and New Zealand. The main reasons for the use of IONM given in our study by routine users were to establish familiarity of equipment and medicolegal reasons. Selective users chose as the most common reasons, a documented pre\u2010existing unilateral nerve paresis or a hostile surgical field. Non\u2010users stated that there was conflicting evidence that it improves outcomes and increased costs.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/ans.15536","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,10,31]],"date-time":"2019-10-31T03:59:11Z","timestamp":1572494351000},"page":"867-871","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Intraoperative nerve monitoring in endocrine surgery: prevalence and reasons for its use in Australia and New Zealand"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"90","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4552-9579","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"David Chee Weng","family":"Leong","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Endocrine Surgery Sir Charles Gairdner Hospital  Perth Western Australia Australia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Johnny","family":"Lo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Research School of Science Edith Cowan University  Perth Western Australia Australia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Simon","family":"Ryan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Endocrine Surgery Sir Charles Gairdner Hospital  Perth Western Australia Australia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Hieu","family":"Nguyen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Endocrine Surgery Sir Charles Gairdner Hospital  Perth Western Australia Australia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Dean","family":"Lisewski","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Endocrine Surgery Fiona Stanley Hospital  Perth Western Australia Australia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2019,10,30]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_7_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s13304-014-0275-y"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s00268-008-9724-4"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.4236\/ijohns.2013.21007"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/jamaoto.2016.0412"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s00423-017-1580-y"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/ans.12980"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s00268-013-2260-x"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/1477-7819-11-94"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_10_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jfma.2012.03.003"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_11_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.otorri.2015.02.001"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_12_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/bjs.10276"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_13_1","first-page":"7761","article-title":"Protective effects of intraoperative nerve monitoring (IONM) for recurrent laryngeal nerve injury in thyroidectomy: meta\u2010analysis","volume":"8","author":"Bai B","year":"2018","journal-title":"Nature"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_14_1","first-page":"223","article-title":"Meta\u2010analysis of recurrent laryngeal nerve injury in thyroid surgery with or without intraoperative nerve monitoring","volume":"34","author":"Rulli F","year":"2014","journal-title":"Acta Otorhinolaryngol.
