Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

By comparison of two different protocols with diverse fluid/ catecholamine administration limits (fluid restriction vs. catecholamine restriction with target systolic blood pressure > 100 mmHg) the investigators would like to reveal the impact of intraoperative blood pressure management on the survival rate of free deep inferior epigastric artery flaps for breast reconstruction.
