Abstract

Purpose: The aim of this study is to evaluate the influence of patient demographics, operative techniques and post-operative care on patient satisfaction after breast reduction operations were evaluated in this study. Materials and Methods: Patients who undergo breast reduction surgery were offered to fulfil Breast-Q reduction module survey in pre-operative and post-operative sixth month period. Patient data such as age, height, weight, smoking, marital status and parenting have been recorded. Operative variances such as drain use and cutaneous stitches and complications, post-operative discharge days, staying in a private room were recorded with post-operative survey module. Results: Seventy-six patients were included in this study. The average age was 45.8 and mean body mass index (BMI) was 29.2. Post-operative satisfaction with breasts, psychosocial, sexual and physical wellbeing scores were significantly higher than pre-operative scores. Older women had higher pre-operative scores from satisfaction with breasts and psychosocial wellbeing. Younger patients and normal weight patients had higher scores from post-operative physical wellbeing. Satisfaction with breasts, sexual and physical wellbeing, satisfaction with information, surgeon and medical stuff scores were significantly lower in patients who had a post-operative complication.Conclusion: Surgery without complications is the most powerful factor that increases patient satisfaction. Patient demographics such as age and BMI can be used for patient selection for higher patient satisfaction.

Özet

Amaç: Bu çalışmada meme küçültme amelyiatı sonrası, hasta demografik özellikleri, ameliyat teknikleri ve ameliyat sonrası bakımın hasta memnuniyetine etkisi değerlendirilmiştir.Gereç ve Yöntem: Meme küçültme ameliyatı geçiren hastalar arasından, ameliyat öncesi ve ameliyat sonrası altıncı aylık dönemde Breast-Q meme redüksiyonu modülü anketi doldurmayı kabul eden hastalar çalışmaya dahil edildi. Hastaların evlilik durumları, çocuk sahibi olup olmadıkları, sigara kullanımı, boy ve kiloları, yaşları ameliyat öncesinde sorularak kaydedildi. Ameliyat sonrası dren kullanılıp kullanılmadığı, cilt dikişleri olup olmadığı, herhangi bir komplikasyon gelişip gelişmediği, postoperatif yatış gün sayısı, hastanede kaldığı odada başka hasta bulunup bulunmadığı sorgulanarak kayıt altına alındı. Bulgular: Çalışmaya 76 hasta dahil edildi. Ortalama yaş 45.8 ve ortalama vücut kitle indeksi (VKİ) 29.2 idi. Ameliyat sonrası memelerden tatmin, psikososyal, cinsel ve fiziksel iyilik hali puanları ameliyat öncesi puanlardan anlamlı derecede yüksekti. Yaşlı kadınlarda memelerden memnuniyet ve psikososyal iyilik hali ameliyat öncesi puanlarda daha yüksekti. Genç hastalar ve normal kilolu hastalar ameliyat sonrası fiziksel iyilikten daha yüksek puan aldı. Ameliyat sonrası komplikasyonu olan hastalarda memelerden memnuniyet, cinsel ve fiziksel iyilik hali, bilgi memnuniyeti, cerrah ve tıbbi malzeme puanları anlamlı olarak düşüktü.Sonuç: Komplikasyon olmayan cerrahinin, hasta memnuniyetini artıran en güçlü faktör olduğu görüldü. Yaş ve VKİ gibi hasta demografisi bilgileri, hasta memnuniyetini arttırmak için hasta seçiminde kullanılabilecek kriterlerdir.
