ABSTRACT
Objective To discuss the effect of two different warming methods on the circulation of free flaps during operation and seek for an optimal warming method which is benificial for the circulation of free flaps, and thus provide clinical evidences for intraoperative care. Methods A total of 96 patients undergoing free flap transplantation were divided into routine warming group and diversification warming group randomly (n=48 each). In routine warming group, temperature in the operating room was set at routine temperature and flaps were douched by routine heated saline. In diversification warming group, the temperature in the operation room, fluids used for washing wounds and flaps were warmed, fluids for intravenous application were pre-warmed by a fluid warmer, in addition, the operation table where patients were lying on was covered with warmer blanket. The influence of two different warming methods on the circulation of free flaps was observed. Results The scores of flap elasticity and capillary refill time in routine warming group were 2.02 ± 0.79 and 2.04 ± 0.81, respectively, vs. 2.50 ± 0.61 and 2.48 ± 0.6 in diversification warming group, showing diversification warming group was statistically better than routine warming group (Z=1.949, 3.872, P<0.05). In addition, the flap survival rate in routine warming group was 81.2%(39/48) vs. 95.8%(46/48) in diversification warming group, showing significantly better results in diversification warming group (χ2=4.02, P < 0.05). Conclusions The diversification warm keeping method can effectively promote the circulation and survival of flaps, improve clinical prognosis, accelerate postoperative rehabilitation, therefore is worthy of being recommanded its clinical application.
