Background and Aim: Head and neck cancer surgeries with free tissue transfer are complex procedures, and fluid management can grossly affect the microvascular anastomosis. We hypothesise that intra-operative goal-directed fluid therapy (GDFT) is the key to administer fluid individualised to a patient's requirement. The aim of this study was to observe the role of GDFT in perioperative flap outcome and length of hospital stay. Methods:A randomised prospective controlled study was performed in 106 patients undergoing composite resection of head and neck cancer with free tissue transfer. Patients in Group A received GDFT based on stroke volume variation whereas Group B received conventional fluid therapy intra-operatively. The endpoints of this study were total perioperative fluid, fluid boluses, vasopressor requirement, flap outcome and length of intensive care unit and hospital stay. Statistical analysis was done using Chi-square test. Results: The total intra-operative fluid given to both the groups was comparable but patients in Group A received more boluses and vasopressors compared to Group B during intra-operative period. The amount of fluid given in the first 24 hours post-operatively was significantly less in Group A (1807 + 476 ml) compared to Group B (2205 + 382 ml). Incidence of hypotension with tachycardia was observed in three patients in Group B and none in Group A. Poor flap outcome was observed in one patient in Group A versus four in Group B due to thrombosis. Conclusion: GDFT helps in early detection of fluid deficit and may avoid complications arising due to inadequate microvascular perfusion during the peri-operative period. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
