| Research Abstract |
This study evaluated the effects of a Perioperative Educational Program for Improving Upper Arm Dysfunction in Patients with Breast Cancer 3-Year Follow-up with regard to upper arm function and quality of life (QOL). Among the variables examined, only Upper arm girth and self-reported questionnaires, the Subjective Perception of Post-Operative Functional Impairment of the Arm (SPOFIA) and the Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand (DASH), self-care and QOL were significantly improved in the intervention group. The present program improves the postoperative upper arm function and discomfort in breast cancer patients who undergo surgery with axillary lymph node dissection.
