Alignment of the probe and accurate monitoring of the velles, reduction noise and interference of adjucent vessels
The fully insulated silver-coated copper coaxial lead wire is less sensitive to noise and signal interference
Loss of an audible signal alerts staff that a potential problem with perfusion may exist
Rapid Detection
Monitoring of the outflow vein of the flap will detect cessation of venous flow almost immediately
Interruption of arterial flow will cause a near-immediate loss of the venous Doppler signal
Venous monitoring clearly offers a distinct advantage over arterial monitoring with regard to detecting venous thrombosis and simultaneously
serves as a monitor of arterial flow
Early Intervention
Timing of presentation of flap compromise is a significant predictor in flap salvage rates
Intensive monitoring in the initial postoperative period by the clinician leads to early re-exploration and more likely repair
Improved Outcome Through Doppler Monitoring
Reduce Needless Re-explorations
Increase Flap Salvage Rates
Minimize Flap Loss
