Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the effect of different negative pressure level on drain volume after augmentation mammoplasty through inframammary fold incision, and try to put forward the appropriate negative pressure level for the best prognosis of patients.Methods:This was a randomized controlled clinical study. Patients who underwent prosthetic augmentation mammoplasty through inframammary fold incision in the Medical Beauty Center of the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 2019 to August 2021 were selected as the study subjects. Patients were divided into 4 groups by random number table method and different levels of negative pressure drainage were applied: 600 ml adjustable negative pressure drain bottle was used uniformly after operation by -80--85 kPa group, -40--60 kPa group, and -15--30 kPa group. In 0--5.2 kPa group, 300 ml drain drum was applied after operation. The criteria for drain removal was that the drain volume within 24 hours was less than 10 ml and the drainage fluid was clear. Daily drain volume, duration of drain placement, total drain volume, acceptance of the drain device and postoperative complications were recorded in the four groups. The corresponding indexes of each group were statistically analyzed by SPSS 21.0. Measurement data were expressed as Mean±SD. One-way analysis of variance was used for comparison between groups, and LSD- t test was used for pair comparison between groups. P<0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results:A total of 80 patients were included, 20 in each group. Inter-group equilibrium analysis: there was no significant difference in age, body mass index, distance from midclavicular point to nipple, distance from inferior mammary fold to nipple, and breast tissue thickness among 4 groups ( P>0.05). Evaluation of curative effect between groups: on the first and second day after operation, there was no significant difference in drain volume between -80--85 kPa group and -40--60 kPa group ( P>0.05), but there was significant difference among other groups ( P<0.05). There was significant difference in drain volume on the third day after operation, total drain volume and duration of drain placement between the four groups ( P<0.05). The lower the negative pressure level was, the less drain volume on the third day after surgery and the less total drain volume, and the shorter duration of drain placement. The duration of drain placement of the four groups were (5.6±0.7) d (-80--85 kPa group), (4.8±0.5) d (-40--60 kPa group), (4.0±0.5) d (-15--30 kPa group), and (3.2±0.4) d (0--5.2 kPa group), respectively. Safety evaluation: the complication rate of -80--85 kPa group, -40--60 kPa group, -15--30 kPa group and 0--5.2 kPa group were 2.5% (1/40), 2.5% (1/40), 0(0/40) and 15.0% (6/40), respectively. The complication rate of 0--5.2 kPa group was the highest. Investigation on the acceptance of the drainage device (no impact/dissatisfaction): 75 patients expressed dissatisfaction, with a dissatisfaction rate of 93.75%(75/80). Conclusion:In augmentation mammoplasty through inferior fold incision low negative pressure provides less drain volume, shorter drain placement. Negative pressure between -15 to -30 kPa is optimal.
