ICG-R: ICG Indocyanine Green in Reconstructive Surgery
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The success or failure of a reconstruction is largely related to the vascularization of the operated area. Near infrared fluorescence (also near infrared fluorescence angiography, NIR FA) with ICG administration is an innovative technique to quantify tissue perfusion. Based on the results obtained in other subspecialties, NIR fluorescence appears to be a promising way to quantify tissue perfusion in reconstructive surgery. Fluorescence research has previously been used in the context of microsurgery and breast reconstructions using implants, but structural objective determinations are lacking. Our study is successful if we are able to determine a cut off value for the absolute or relative perfusion parameters.

- Maximum perfusion intensity (ROI) [Once during the surgery]
2. Maximum perfusion intensity (Imax, units) in a normal vascularized reference frame
- Relative Perfusion [Once during the surgery]
Maximum perfusion intensity (Imax, units) in a normal vascularized reference frame / Maximum perfusion intensity (Imax, units) in a normal vascularized reference frame
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Tmax [Once during the surgery]
Time to reach maximum perfusion in region of interest (Tmax, sec)
- Ingress [Once during the surgery]
Rate of increase in intensity from baseline to peak intensity (Ingress, units)
- Egress [Once during the surgery]
Degree of decrease in intensity from peak to last measurement (Egress, units)
- Lap Failure [Follow up at six weeks postoperative]
Quantified as I <5%; II 5-15%, III 15-50%, IV> 50%, V complete
- Wound infection [Follow up at six weeks postoperative]
Defined as none, local wound treatment, antibiotics, or hospitalization.
- Skin necrosis [Follow up at six weeks postoperative]
Defined as none, partial thickness, and full thickness.
- Delayed union [Follow up at six and twelve months postoperative]
Radiologic examination (Xray or CT) concluding on the presence of delayed union after 6 months or non-union after 12 months
- Relative Perfusion before and after tissue transfer [Twice during the surgery]
Maximum perfusion intensity (Imax, units) in the same reference frame after tissue transfer / Maximum perfusion intensity (Imax, units) in a reference frame before tissue transfer
