Patient‐reported outcomes, postoperative pain and pain relief after day‐case surgery (POPPY): baseline data from day surgery practice in the UK

Anaesthesia, EarlyView.
Summary Introduction Most patients undergoing elective surgery in the UK are discharged from hospital on the same day. Despite this, there is a lack of UK patient‐centred outcome measures relating to quality of recovery, pain and analgesic use. The POPPY study was a UK‐wide prospective, observational study measuring short‐ and longer‐term patient ...

Feasibility of Charcoal Tattooing of Cytology-Proven Metastatic Axillary Lymph Node at Diagnosis and Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy after Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy in Breast Cancer Patients

Cancer research and treatment : official journal of Korean Cancer Association, 2017
Purpose Sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) can be performed when node-positive disease is converted to node-negative status after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NCT). Tattooing nodes might improve accuracy but supportive data are limited.

Selective Pectoralis Muscle Denervation Reduces Capsular Contracture in Sub‐Pectoral Breast Reconstruction. Long‐Term Retrospective Case‐ Control Study

ANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Implant‐based breast reconstruction (IBBR) is the most common method of breast reconstruction globally. Although the traditional approach places implants in a retropectoral position, pre‐pectoral reconstruction has recently gained popularity due to its improved aesthetic outcomes and lower capsular contracture (CC) rates.

The Breast Cancer Treatment Experience for a Breast Cancer Patient Living With Intellectual or Developmental Disabilities in Ontario, Canada: A Critical Realist Case Study

British Journal of Learning Disabilities, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Adult females with intellectual or developmental disabilities are more likely to die following a breast cancer diagnosis. Differences in access to cancer treatment may contribute to these survival differences. We explored how one woman with intellectual or developmental disabilities received guideline‐recommended breast cancer ...
