结局指标
主要结局
The difference between the baseline and postoperative arm volume measurement
时间窗: Up to 24 months
The primary objective is to determine the efficacy of a prevention program in decreasing the development of lymphedema in participants treated for breast cancer with Axillary Lymph Node Dissection/ALND by use of arm volume measurements. A ≥ 10% increase in RVC (arm volume difference between the affected and unaffected arms) between baseline and postoperative measures occurring at 12 months or later will indicate the development of lymphedema
