NCT ID: NCT05233891 Recruiting - Breast Cancer Clinical Trials

Validation of Scales in Reconstructive Breast Surgery

ValPlast
Start date: June 21, 2021
Phase:
Study type: Observational

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.

NCT ID: NCT04597515 Recruiting - Breast Hypertrophy Clinical Trials

Reduction of Breast Enlargement Using the Da Vinci Xi Robot

R-HTM-R
Start date: November 1, 2020
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Breast enlargement reductions are frequent interventions. One of the main issue associated with this surgery remains the ransom scar, wide at the periareolar level, vertical at the subareolar level and in the submammary groove. The expected result is to achieve a reduction in breast enlargement with no visible scar using Da Da Vinci Xi robot.

NCT ID: NCT03669679 Completed - Breast Hypertrophy Clinical Trials

Comparison of Superomedial and Inferior Pedicle Techniques in Mammaplasty

Start date: April 1, 2016
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The aim of this study is to evaluate Superomedial pedicle and Inferior pedicle techniques in breast reduction for Egyptian females and compare between both pedicles regarding cosmetic outcomes, possible complications, patient satisfaction and time of operation.

NCT ID: NCT03621345 Completed - Postoperative Pain Clinical Trials

Bilateral Ultrasound-Guided Erector Spinae Plane Block For Postoperative Analgesia in Breast Reduction Surgery

Start date: August 15, 2018
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Erector spinae plane (ESP) block is a novel block developed by Forero to treat severe neuropathic pain and was firstly reported in 2016. Anatomical and radiological investigations in fresh cadavers indicate that its site of action is likely at the dorsal and ventral rami of the thoracic spinal nerves. The ESP block has a clear and simple sonoanatomy, it is easy to perform, not time consuming and generally well tolerated by the patients. So, the investigators believed that the ESP block may be an effective and safer alternative to paravertebral block, epidural analgesia and other myofascial thoracic wall blocks in breast surgery and designed a prospective, randomised, placebo-controlled trial for pain management.

NCT ID: NCT03558880 Completed - Pain, Postoperative Clinical Trials

Ultrasound Guided Bilateral Erector Spinae Plane Block Versus Tumescent Anesthesia

Start date: July 1, 2017
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

In breast reduction surgery, pain control is usually performed with tumescent anesthesia, thoracic epidural anesthesia, intercostal nerve blocks and paravertebral block applications. Tumescent anesthesia is also preferred by plastic surgeons because of the varying risk of thoracic epidural anesthesia and paravertebral block applications. After the Erector spinae block was first described by Forero in 2016, it was reported to have been applied in many cases, including breast surgery. It is considered to be a safer block because of the presence of paravertebral block-like activity and the location where the needle is guided away from the pleura. The investigators aimed to compare postoperative analgesia consumption, pain scores and patient satisfaction of erector spine block with tumescent anesthesia in patients who underwent reduction mammoplasty operation under general anesthesia in this double-blind prospective randomized study.

NCT ID: NCT01297621 Completed - Breast Hypertrophy Clinical Trials

Physical Activity and Sexuality After Reduction Mammaplasty

Start date: May 2010
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This prospective controlled trial was designed to determine whether breast reduction may influence physical activity and sexuality of breast hypertrophy women.

NCT ID: NCT00992368 Completed - Cost-effectiveness Clinical Trials

Cost-effectiveness of Reduction Mammaplasty

Start date: July 2008
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Several works show breast hypertrophy as pain cause, postural alterations, dermatitis and decrease of the functional capacity and of the self-esteem. The economical evaluations are destined to esteem the costs in alternative ways of attendance to the health, comparing, for instance, clinical strategies with surgical strategies. OBJECTIVE: To analyze cost-effectiveness in reduction mammaplasty.

NCT ID: NCT00727025 Completed - Clinical trials for Breast Reconstruction

Randomized Controlled Trial of Subcuticular Skin Closure Versus Steri-strip S Closure

Start date: July 2005
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Purpose: The aims of this randomized clinical trial are: 1. to assess scar quality from the patient and surgeon perspectives 2. to assess patient comfort in the days immediately following surgery 3. to assess the time taken to complete closure in the operating room. 4. the financial benefit or cost for the institution of using Steri Strip S will also be estimated. Two closure methods will be compared, a new coaptive film device (Steri Strip S) versus standard subcuticular sutures. The linear incisions will include the standard incision segments utilized for an inverted-T closure for bilateral breast reduction and the transabdominal incision segments utilized for abdominoplasty or TRAM flap harvest. Our hypothesis is that incisions segments closed with Steri Strip S compared to standard subcuticular closure, will yield scars of better cosmetic quality, in shorter time to closure, with novice and expert surgeons, for both bilateral breast reduction and abdominoplasty surgical procedures.

NCT ID: NCT00149370 Completed - Breast Hypertrophy Clinical Trials

Quality of Life Among Breast Reduction Patients

Start date: January 2001
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

Despite the growing evidence showing that breast hypertrophy is associated with reduced Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQL) and that reduction mammoplasty has a significant positive impact on HRQL, there are unresolved issues that need to be addressed. These include our ability to measure quantitatively the change that occurs after reduction and the ongoing restriction or denials of third party payments based on body mass index (BMI). The primary purpose of this study is to assess and measure the HRQL experienced by breast reduction patients using four reliable and validated HRQL measures. Fifty-two consecutive patients with the diagnosis of breast hypertrophy were invited to participate in this prospective study. Participants completed the Health Utilities Index Mark 2 (HUI2) and Mark 3 (HUI3) and the Breast Reduction Assessment Value and Outcomes (BRAVO) instruments (the Short Form 36, the Multidimensional Body-Self Rating Questionnaire Appearance Assessment, and the Breast Related Symptom Questionnaire) at one week and one day pre-surgery and one, six, and 12 months post-surgery.

NCT ID: NCT00149344 Completed - Breast Hypertrophy Clinical Trials

Vertical Scar Versus Inferior Pedicle Reduction Mammoplasty

Start date: September 2005
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Main research question: Is vertical scar reduction mammoplasty superior when compared to inferior pedicle reduction mammoplasty in terms of patient quality of life and cost-effectiveness? Why is this research important?: There is on-going controversy among plastic surgeons as to the superiority of one technique (vertical scar mammoplasty versus inferior pedicle reduction mammoplasty) over the other in terms of patient health related quality of life and health care resource utilization. What is being studied?: We are studying (comparing) two surgical procedures for breast reduction mammoplasty (vertical scar mammoplasty versus inferior pedicle reduction mammoplasty).
