    Delphi Study Consensus Recommendations: Patient Selection and Preoperative Planning Measurements for Natrelle 410
    (2015) HEDEN, Per; BROWN, Mitchell H.; LUAN, Jie; MAXWELL, G. Patrick; MUNHOZ, Alexandre Mendonca; CARTER, Mollie
    Background: There is considerable variation in the planning and implementation process for breast augmentation. Although general guidelines are available, the distinctive characteristics of the Natrelle 410 breast implant warrant surgical guidelines specific to this device. This study aimed to develop consensus recommendations for patient selection and preoperative planning for Natrelle 410 in primary breast augmentation. Methods: Surgeons were invited to participate in this study, which used a modified Delphi method. Participants completed 2 rounds of online surveys, with the second round (Recommendations Survey) based on responses from the first round. Respondents also listed their top priorities for using Natrelle 410 implants. Results: Participants (n = 22) reached consensus on 15 of 18 criteria for patient selection; tuberous breasts, patient preference regarding upper pole shape, and asymmetry of the breasts were the top 3 patient characteristics considered appropriate for the use of Natrelle 410. Consensus was reached on 38 of 51 items related to preoperative planning, with 8 measurements and 6 markings recommended by the participants. Patient-desired outcome was considered the most essential element for Natrelle 410 implant selection; quality of skin envelope and height and width dimension of the breast were selected as the most essential elements for Natrelle 410 implant volume selection. Conclusions: The modified Delphi method resulted in consensus recommendations for patient selection and preoperative planning in primary breast augmentation with the Natrelle 410 breast implant. These recommendations and priorities, used in concert with a surgeon's clinical experience, are designed to optimize surgical outcomes.

    Delphi Consensus Recommendations: Intraoperative Technique and Postoperative Management of Patients with Natrelle 410 Implants
    (2015) MAXWELL, G. Patrick; BROWN, Mitchell H.; HEDEN, Per; LUAN, Jie; MUNHOZ, Alexandre Mendonca; CARTER, Mollie
    Background: Anatomically shaped, form-stable Natrelle 410 breast implants were approved in Europe in 1993 and in the United States in 2013. Although general guidelines for breast augmentation are available, the distinctive characteristics of Natrelle 410 warrant specific guidelines for this device. The goal of this study was to generate consensus recommendations for intraoperative technique and postoperative management with Natrelle 410 in primary breast augmentation. Methods: Surgeons were invited to participate in the study, which used a modified Delphi method. Participants completed 2 rounds of online surveys; the second survey (Recommendations Survey) was generated based on first survey results. Respondents also listed top priorities for use of Natrelle 410. Results: Participants (n = 22) reached consensus on 15 of 18 perioperative and surgical techniques; dual-plane placement, tight pockets, and limiting the boundaries of dissection were among intraoperative techniques considered most important for Natrelle 410. Consensus was reached for 18 of 32 items regarding postoperative management and 6 of 9 open-ended postoperative activity restrictions. Consensus on activity restrictions with specified time limits were similar to consensus recommendations on general restrictions. Top participant-identified intraoperative and postoperative management practices for Natrelle 410 were dual-plane placement of the implant and wearing a bra postoperatively, respectively. Conclusions: The Delphi method identified consensus recommendations on a broad range of intraoperative techniques and postoperative management practices for primary breast augmentation with Natrelle 410. These recommendations and priorities provide surgeons with a framework that, together with the surgeon's experience, will contribute to optimal clinical outcomes with Natrelle 410.
