Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Incidence of vocal fold mobility impairment (VFMI) and dysphagia in postoperative cardiovascular patients	January 2010-June 2020	Data analyses will be conducted using commercially available statistical software, SPSS and only de-identified data will be used during data analysis. We will pull data from the files in order to determine how often the patients have vocal fold mobility impairment and/or dysphagia following surgery.
