Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Proportion of Body Composition Measurement Collection

    The proportion of enrolled participants with successfully obtained body composition measurements at both preoperative and postoperative timepoints. A success rate of ≥90% will be considered feasible. The proportion of the participants meets feasibility will be reported.

    up to 2 years

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Postoperative Variability of Body Composition

    up to 2 years

  • Pre- to Postoperative Changes in Body Composition and Their Association with BMI

    up to 2 years

  • Association Between Body Composition Parameters and Postoperative Complications Following Breast Reconstruction

    up to 2 years

Study Arms (2)

Cohort A: Implant-based Reconstruction

Patients undergo standard of care implant-based breast reconstruction and body composition measurement on study.

Procedure: Measurement of Body CompositionOther: Chart Review

Cohort B: Autologous Reconstruction

Patients undergo standard of care autologous breast reconstruction and body composition measurement on study.

Procedure: Measurement of Body CompositionOther: Chart Review

Interventions

Body composition measurements collected pre and post operatively using a bioelectrical impedance analyzer.

Cohort A: Implant-based ReconstructionCohort B: Autologous Reconstruction

Clinical and surgical data will be collected from the participants medical records.

Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)
Sampling MethodNon-Probability Sample
Study Population

Adult participants seen at University California of San Francisco (UCSF) clinics

You may qualify if:

  • Patients must have histologically confirmed breast malignancy or increased risk of developing a breast malignancy.
  • Age ≥ 18 years.
  • Scheduled to undergo mastectomy with immediate breast reconstruction using a permanent implant, tissue expander, or autologous tissue (e.g. Deep Inferior Epigastric Perforator (DIEP) flap, muscle-sparing Transverse Rectus Abdominis Myocutaneous (msTRAM) flap, Profunda Artery Perforator (PAP) flap).
  • Ability to understand a written informed consent document, and the willingness to sign it.

You may not qualify if:

  • Any significant medical condition or laboratory abnormalities, which places the subject at unacceptable risk if he/she were to participate in the study.
  • Pregnant or breastfeeding.
  • Patients assigned male at birth.
  • Non-cisgender women.
  • Patients with implanted electronic medical devices (e.g. pacemaker, defibrillator).
  • Patients with prosthetic limbs.
