What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

The goal of this observational study is to conduct postoperative monitoring in patients who have undergone upper or lower limb reconstructive surgery with an anterolateral thigh flap, by employing the gold standard approach: intermittent assessment of clinical parameters (flap's color, temperature, skin turgor and capillary refill time) combined with Doppler techniques, alongside continuous tissue oxygenation measurements obtained using the CASMED FORE-SIGHT ELITE monitor.The main objective of the study is to provide preliminary data on potential cut-off values indicative of flap failure.
