Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Amount of Drainage during first 7 days postoperative. Drains will be removed during a follow-up visit to be held seven days postoperatively or when drainage is 30-35 ml in a 24 hour period, unless prohibited by complication.

    7 days

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • The secondary endpoint for this study will be the rate of patients experiencing at least one of the following postoperative wound complications: 1. Seroma Formation 2. Surgical Site Infection

    6 weeks post -op

Study Arms (2)

1

EXPERIMENTAL

Application of Autologous Blood Products to surgical site during mastectomy.

Procedure: Application of autologous blood products.

2

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Standard Modified Radical Mastectomy

Procedure: Standard Modified Radical Mastectomy

Interventions

Autologous blood products (platelet rich and platelet poor plasma) produced by the PlasmaxTM Plus Plasma Concentration System will be applied to the surgical site.
