The Importance of a Pre-treatment Baseline When Screening Patients for Breast-Cancer-Related Lymphedema

Steven L. Chen, Chirag Shah, John Boyages, Louise A. Koelmeyer et autres

BACKGROUND: The PREVENT randomized clinical trial showed that bioimpedance spectroscopy (BIS) screening for subclinical breast-cancer-related lymphedema (sBCRL) detection with early intervention is associated with lower progression to chronic breast-cancer-related lymphedema (cBCRL) than tape measurement (TM). This study explores the role of a …

A multisite randomized trial of an advanced pneumatic compression device vs usual care for head and neck cancer related lymphedema: Short-term results.

Barbara A. Murphy, Derek K. Smith, Cristina Kline‐Quiroz, K. S. Jensen et autres

6107 Background: Lymphedema is common in head and neck cancer survivors (HNCS). Published data indicate that an Advanced Pneumatic Compression Device (APCD) is an effective intervention for lymphedema refractory to Therapist Guided Lymphedema Treatment (TGLT). It may also address barriers to TGLT. …

Head and neck cancer survivors’ perception of lymphedema care.

Cristina Kline‐Quiroz, Barbara A. Murphy, Sheila Hedden Ridner, Derek K. Smith et autres

e24046 Background: Secondary lymphedema and fibrosis occurs in more than 90% of HNC survivors. Given the progressive nature of lymphedema, prompt identification and treatment are essential. Treatment of HNC related lymphedema is fraught by numerous barriers. Advanced pneumatic compression devices (APCD) may …

Axillary Treatment and Chronic Breast Cancer–Related Lymphedema: Implications for Prospective Surveillance and Intervention From a Randomized Controlled Trial

John Boyages, Frank A. Vicini, Behnaz Azimi Manavi, Richelle L. Gaw et autres

PURPOSE: The PREVENT randomized trial assessed progression to chronic breast cancer-related lymphedema (cBCRL) after intervention triggered by bioimpedance spectroscopy (BIS) or tape measurement (TM). This secondary analysis identifies cBCRL risk factors on the basis of axillary treatment. METHODS: Between June 2014 and …

Prospective Surveillance with Compression for Subclinical Lymphedema: Symptoms, Skin, and Quality-of-Life Outcomes

Mary S. Dietrich, Katrina Gaitatzis, Louise A. Koelmeyer, John Boyages et autres

Background: Patients underwent a compression (sleeve and gauntlet) intervention for subclinical breast cancer-related lymphedema (S-BCRL). Physical, emotional, and quality-of-life (QoL) outcomes were examined. Associations of change in extracellular fluid alone through bioimpedance spectroscopy (BIS) or change in whole-arm volume through tape measure …
