Background:The most common complication of thyroid anesthesia is recurrent laryngeal nerve injury, and anesthesia drugs affect the intraoperative recurrent laryngeal nerve monitoring indicators, especially nerve blockers, which can cause muscle relaxation and affect vocal cord contraction. The purpose of this study was to investigate the optimal dose of rocuronium during general anesthesia (GA) during thyroid surgery by meta-analysis.Methods: Chinese and English databases were searched by the combination of "thyroid", "general anesthesia", and "rocuronium bromide". Publications which took double dose rocuronium GA surgery as the double group and normal dose rocuronium GA surgery as the normal group were included, and Review Manager 5.3 (Rev Man 5.3) was employed for meta-analysis.Results: A total of fifteen publications were included in the meta-analysis and an overall heterogeneity test was conducted to obtain the results. Comparison of the operation time between the double group and the normal group showed the mean difference (
