: In 2012, the breast cancer estimate worldwide stood at 1.67 million new cases, these accounting for 25% of all types of cancer diagnosed in women. For 2014, 57,120 new cases are expected, with a risk estimated at 56.1 cases for every 100,000 women. The objective of this study was to analyze the satisfaction regarding the use of external breast prostheses by women undergoing mastectomy.
This cross-sectional study was conducted with 76 women who used an external breast prosthesis (EBP), registered in the services of the Cuiaba Center for Comprehensive Rehabilitation, Mato Grosso, Brazil, from 2009 to 2012. Data were collected from the records of women who had requested the opening of a process of external breast prosthesis concession.
Satisfaction with the EBP was identified in 56.6% of the women. Those satisfied with the EBP reported that its weight was not annoying (p<0.01). Although the women felt body sensations of stitches, pains, pulling, dormancy and phantom limb, they are satisfied with the EBP. The variable related to the displacement of the breast prosthesis during activity of everyday life has demonstrated that even though the women have reported the possibility of displacements, they are satisfied with the EBP. The satisfaction with the use of external breast prosthesis did not affect the sexuality of the women with mastectomy.
Learning the specificities of the EBP, taking into consideration the satisfaction of its use, allows the rehabilitation team, by listening to their clientele more attentively, following up this woman throughout her life journey, supporting and guiding the best way of use, with an eye to her personal, emotional and social life, as well as to her self-esteem.
2012年，全球乳腺癌估计新增病例达167万例，占女性确诊的所有癌症类型的25%。预计2014年新增病例57120例，每10万名女性中的发病风险估计为56.1例。本研究的目的是分析接受乳房切除术的女性使用外部乳房假体的满意度。
本横断面研究对2009年至2012年在巴西马托格罗索州库亚巴综合康复中心登记使用外部乳房假体（EBP）的76名女性进行。数据收集自申请外部乳房假体特许权程序的女性记录。
56.6%的女性对EBP感到满意。对EBP满意的女性表示其重量并不烦人（p<0.01）。尽管女性有缝线、疼痛、牵拉、麻木和幻肢等身体感觉，但她们对EBP感到满意。与日常生活活动中乳房假体移位相关的变量表明，尽管女性报告了移位的可能性，但她们对EBP感到满意。使用外部乳房假体的满意度并未影响接受乳房切除术女性的性生活。
了解EBP的特性，考虑其使用满意度，使康复团队能够更用心倾听客户，在女性的人生旅程中全程跟进，支持并指导最佳使用方式，关注其个人、情感和社会生活以及自尊。
