Key inclusion & exclusion criteria
|
Inclusion Criteria:
- Adult patients planned to undergo reconstructive surgery using either a pedicle or free tissue transfer flap seen by The Plastic Surgery Service on either an in-patient or outpatient bases.
- Adult patients that are planned to undergo reconstructive surgery as above and able to receive information regarding the study and provide informed consent to enrollment in the study.
Exclusion Criteria
- All emergency reconstructive surgery patients.
- Patients planned to undergo radiation therapy in the region of the reconstructive surgery within 6 months after surgery.
- Patients who develop hypotension requiring the administration of vasopressors either intra-operatively or during the post-operative period prior to discharge from the hospital.
- Patients who develop clinical signs of a surgical site infection at the location of the tissue transfer flap(s).
- Patients with the development of post-operative anemia requiring a blood transfusion during the first 72 hours after surgery.
- Patients with tattooing or pigmented lesions on the tissue transfer flap.
- Patients who incur injury to the flaps secondary to trauma within 6 months of the reconstructive surgery; with trauma defined as either accidental major trauma resulting in injury to the tissue transfer flap or surgical trauma as a result of further oncologic resection of tissues in close proximity to the tissue transfer flap.
- Minor under the age of 18 years of age.
- Patients deemed unable to comprehend and provide informed consent to enrollment into study due to either a cognitive deficit or medical condition.
