Sponsor's own description
Ischemia and reperfusion injury during free flap reconstructive surgery creates a state of increased oxidative stress that can adversely affect the flap outcomes. Ascorbic acid (AA) had been proven to have beneficial effect on end-organ protection and flap survival from ischemia-reperfusion injury via its antioxidant properties. The investigators hypothesise that perioperative parenteral ascorbic acid treatment may reduce oxidative stress among participants undergoing free flap reconstructive surgery along with reduction in inflammatory markers, improved rate of flap viability and wound healing at both donor and recipient sites.
