Trial summary

Microdialysis is admitted to be reliable by numerous surgeons to monitor flaps. Nevertheless, a few authors reported follow up with microdialysis in bone free flaps, and they all describe the position of the catheter in the surrounding soft tissue muscle which is not the accurate reflect of bone vascularisation.

About this study

Microdialysis is admitted to be reliable by numerous surgeons to monitor flaps. Nevertheless, a few authors reported follow up with microdialysis in bone free flaps, and they all describe the position of the catheter in the surrounding soft tissue muscle which is not the accurate reflect of bone vascularisation. The aim of this study is to determine the lactate/pyruvate ratio mean value in bone free flaps with a microdialysis catheter directly positioned in the bone tissue.

Read the detailed description

Failure rate of facial reconstructive surgery with bone free flaps varies between 11 and 25%. In case of buried bone free flaps, the follow up is even more difficult. Monitoring methods, such as the implantable Doppler system, laser Doppler flowmetry and microdialysis have been developped in the last 15 years. Ferguson et al. show a false positive rate of 31% with implantable doppler monitoring of buried flaps.

The purpose of this study is to to determine the lactate/pyruvate ratio mean value in bone free flaps with a microdialysis catheter directly positioned in the bone tissue.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing glucose measurement, lactacte measurement and pyruvate measurement in people with Flap Necrosis, run by Centre Hospitalier Universitaire, Amiens at 1 site in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 Jul 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Stéphanie Dakpe, MD ((33)322089050, dakpe.stephanie@chu-amiens.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change from Baseline of lactate/pyruvate ratio in patients without free flap ischemia (time frame: every hour during the day of surgery). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 10 Jul 2024.
