Experimental model demonstrates vascular occlusion detection in free flaps, suggesting clinical utility for monitoring.
Interstitial glucose monitoring appears to be a reliable method for detecting vascular occlusion in free tissue transfers within this experimental model. This technique may offer a rapid, minimally invasive, and cost-effective approach for postoperative vascular monitoring of free flaps. Further investigation in human trials is warranted to confirm these findings and assess clinical utility.
