NCT04503018
Previous quality of life studies have suggested that long term satisfaction with breast reconstruction may be affected by postoperative complications. Complication frequencies, especially the risk for implant loss, is considerably higher in immediate than in delayed breast reconstruction. Knowledge about how implant loss affects the patient's experience of her breast reconstruction can guide us in the choice between immediate and delayed breast reconstruction in high risk patients and help us better prepare the patients for possible complications. This study will investigate patients' experiences with losing an implant in connection with immediate breast reconstruction.
NCT05233891
The main purpose of the project is to validate patient reported outcomes measures (PROMs) in reconstructive breast surgery. BREAST-Q will be evaluated for Swedish and Sweden.Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS), EuroQol 5D (EQ5D), and SF-36 will be validated for reconstructive breast surgery. In addition, the complication classification system according to Clavien-Dindo will be validated for reconstructive breast surgery.
NCT04714463
A breast reconstruction after mastectomy, either due to breast cancer or a high lifetime risk for cancer, is performed to increase the patient's quality of life. However, there are studies that show that some women regret their decision to have breast reconstruction. There are also studies demonstrating similarities in the general patterns of psychosocial adjustment and quality of life among women with breast cancer who have undergone breast-conserving surgery, mastectomy alone, and mastectomy combined with breast reconstruction. Hence, it is unclear which women actually benefit from a breast reconstruction. The concept of quality of life is connected to patient satisfaction and body image/investment. Therefore, the aim of this project is to examine the effects of patient expectations and body image on the patient reported outcomes of breast reconstruction, to improve preoperative information and postoperative care for women considering a breast reconstruction.
