“…Nos casos em que há indicação de cirurgia, tanto a mastectomia, com ou sem reconstrução, ou a cirurgia conservadora da mama são muitas vezes as opções viáveis (Parker et al, 2007;Pockaj et al, 2009). …”

“…Outro instrumento amplamente utilizado é o FACT, muito similar ao QLQ-C30, e conta também com um módulo específico para o cancro da mama, o FACT-B (He et al, 2012). Alguns investigadores optam por utilizar questionários genéricos, não específicos para doentes oncológicos, sendo um dos mais utilizados mundialmente o questionário SF-36 (Parker et al, 2007;Veiga et al, 2010).…”

“…Diversos estudos são desenvolvidos nos primeiros meses após a cirurgia, sendo o follow-up das investigações geralmente inferior a dois anos (Han et al, 2010;Parker et al, 2007;Shi et al, 2011;Veiga et al, 2010). São poucos os estudos com seguimento prolongado dos participantes (Arndt, Stegmaier, Ziegler, & Brenner, 2008;Ganz et al, 2002).…”

“…Num estudo desenvolvido nos Estados Unidos com 258 mulheres, das quais 109 fizeram mastectomia com reconstrução, 45 mastectomia sem reconstrução e 104 cirurgia conservadora, avaliou-se a qualidade de vida em cinco momentos: no pré--operatório e após 1, 6, 12 e 24 meses da cirurgia (Parker et al, 2007). O estudo mostrou que os escores de qualidade de vida no pré-operatório das mulheres que fizeram mastectomia eram mais baixos do que as que fizeram cirurgia conservadora, sendo que com o passar do tempo, principalmente no último momento da avaliação os escores eram muito semelhantes.…”

“…Alguns autores optaram por enviar os questionários por correspondência ou por meios electrónicos às pacientes para serem auto-aplicados (Han et al, 2010;Parker et al, 2007), enquanto outros autores optaram por aplicar os questionários na consulta hospitalar de follow-up, geralmente com a presença do próprio investigador (He et al, 2012;Shi et al, 2011;Veiga et al, 2010).…”

Objective To examine the relationship of overall patient satisfaction with the treatment provided by the surgeon and the consultation process and skills, in low income women undergoing surgical treatment for breast cancer. Design Cross sectional survey. Logistic regression was used to assess the relationship between satisfaction with surgeon treatment and four consultation skills and processes (time spent, listens carefully, explains things in a way you could understand, and shows respect for what you had to say), controlling for a range of patient, surgeon, and treatment characteristics. Setting & Patients A statewide sample of 789 low income women in California receiving treatment for breast cancer under the state’s Breast and Cervical Cancer Treatment Program (BCCTP). Main outcome measures Satisfaction with surgeon treatment. Results Three out of every four women reported being extremely satisfied with the treatment they received from their surgeon. African-American women and those with arm swelling were less likely to be satisfied, while those reporting that the surgeon always spent enough time and explained things in a way they could understand were more likely to report greater satisfaction. Conclusions Our findings highlight the importance of two relatively simple behaviors that surgeons can easily implement to increase patient satisfaction, which can be of potential benefit in today’s litigious world.

Comparison of Wound Complications After Immediate, Delayed, and Secondary Breast Reconstruction Procedures

et al. 2017

The incidence of SSI and NIWCs was slightly higher for implant IR compared with delayed or secondary implant reconstruction. Women who had an SSI or NIWC after implant IR had a higher risk for subsequent complications after SR and more breast operations. The risk for complications should be carefully balanced with the psychosocial and technical benefits of IR. Select high-risk patients may benefit from consideration of delayed rather than immediate implant reconstruction to decrease breast complications after mastectomy.
