Importance: Continuous vasopressor use in free-flap reconstruction is a point of contention among microvascular surgeons despite data demonstrating safety. Objective: To investigate the association between continuous vasopressor use and the incidence of reoperation in the early postoperative period. Design, Setting, and Participants: In this cohort study, a retrospective medical record review was conducted of patients who underwent head and neck free-flap reconstructions between May 1, 2014, and October 31, 2019, in an academic tertiary care center. All patients undergoing free-flap reconstruction for head and neck defects were included. Exposures: Continuous intraoperative vasopressors. Main Outcomes and Measures: Patient medical records were queried for demographic variables; intraoperative use of vasopressors; vasopressor type, duration, and infusion rate; reoperation within the first 5 postoperative days; and reason for reoperation. Results: Four hundred forty-nine consecutive free-flap reconstructions were performed on 426 patients. The mean age was 62 years (IQR, 55.7-71.1); 293 patients were men (65.3%), 380 were White (84.6%), 55 were Black (12.2%), and 14 were of other race or ethnicity (3.1%). A total of 174 patients received a continuous vasopressor during their reconstruction. Twenty-three reoperations occurred within 5 days postoperatively, 8 of which included vasopressors during initial intervention. Vasopressor type had no association with reoperation (4.5% vs 5.5% [8/174 vs 15/275, respectively] for patients who received vasopressors vs those who did not) (dobutamine odds ratio [OR], 1.02 [95% CI, 0.21-2.91]; dopamine OR, 1.48 [95% CI, 0.33-4.26]). No difference was seen in the duration (dobutamine OR, 1.50 [95% CI, 0.78-2.90]; dopamine OR, 0.87 [95% CI, 0.59-1.28]) or infusion rate (dobutamine OR, 1.50 [95% CI, 0.99-1.02]; dopamine OR, 1.00 [95% CI, 0.99-1.01]) of vasopressors between patients who underwent reoperation and those who did not. Analysis after the exclusion of reasons for reoperation that did not represent possible microvascular anastomosis failure (eg, Doppler malfunction, donor site complications) showed no increased propensity for reoperation (OR, 1.18; 95% CI, 0.27-3.9). Conclusions and Relevance: In this cohort study, use of vasopressors for extensive periods intraoperatively during free-tissue transfer appeared to have no association with the rate of reoperation within 5 days of intervention, regardless of agent used, simultaneous use of agents, type of free-flap operation performed, or reason for reoperation. This study adds to the body of literature supporting the judicious use of vasopressors in patients requiring intraoperative pharmacological pressure support during free-flap reconstruction.
