Description détaillée
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To assess the patient's increased knowledge of lymphedema signs/symptoms after education.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. The participant may detect lymphedema signs/symptoms at an early stage by having a pre-surgery comparison of bilateral upper extremities (BUE) circumferential measures to the 3 month post-surgery measures.
OUTLINE:
Participants complete a five question survey, designed by the Occupational Therapy staff, as an instrument to assess a patient's knowledge of lymphedema signs/symptoms before surgery. An Occupational Therapist (OT), Physical Therapist (PT), and/or Certified Lymphedema Therapist (CLT) provide written handouts to participants on the pathophysiology, signs, symptoms, and treatment of lymphedema. Participants repeat the survey at 3 months post-surgery. BUE circumferential measurements are also collected before surgery and at 3 months post-surgery.

Expérimental: Supportive care (lymphedema education)
In an educational intervention, participants complete a five question lymphedema survey, designed by the Occupational Therapy staff, as an instrument to assess a patient's knowledge of lymphedema signs/symptoms before surgery.
An OT, PT, and/or CLT provide written handouts to participants on the pathophysiology, signs, symptoms, and treatment of lymphedema.
Participants repeat the survey at 3 months post-surgery.
BUE circumferential measurements are also collected before surgery and at 3 months post-surgery.

Description de la mesure |
Délai |
|---|---|---|
|
Improvement in participant's knowledge of lymphedema
Délai: Baseline to 3 months post-surgery
|
Quantitative data regarding number of correct answers to the survey questions pre-surgery and at the post-surgery 3 month re-test will be compared to assess if the lymphedema education improved the participant's knowledge of lymphedema.
|
Baseline to 3 months post-surgery
|
|
Total girth differences as assessed by BUE circumferential measurements using the National Lymphedema Network (NLN) guidelines
Délai: Baseline to 3 months post-surgery
|
If a > 2 cm difference is noted in girth from pre to post surgery measures, a referral will be forwarded to the physician by the study investigators and treatment options provided to the participant.

Baseline to 3 months post-surgery
