A complete blood count (CBC) with differential may show an elevated white blood cell (WBC) count indicative of inflammation or invasive infection. The erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) should be determined. An ESR higher than 120 mm/hr and a WBC count greater than 15,000/µL suggest osteomyelitis.
Nutritional parameters should be evaluated to assess adequate nutritional stores needed for adequate wound healing. Useful tests include the following:
Albumin level - This should be optimized to at least 3.5 g/mL before flap reconstruction
Prealbumin level
Transferrin level
Serum protein level
