Full-wrap Versus Conventional Suspension for Reducing Soft Palate Injury Rate in Transoral Surgery
Full-wrap Versus Conventional Suspension for Reducing Soft Palate Injury Rate in Transoral Surgery: A Prospective Randomized Controlled Trial
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 10 Jul 2026
Brief summary (registry, in English)
This study aims to evaluate whether the use of full-wrap suspension, compared with the traditional double-strap suspension, can effectively reduce the risk of intraoperative and postoperative soft palate injury in transoral/transnasal pharyngeal surgery. Through a prospective, multicenter, randomized controlled design, this study will provide evidence-based support for the clinical promotion and standardized application of full-wrap suspension.
