Significance of Preoperative Examination in Breast Augmentation Department of Nanjing Plastic Surgery Hospital

The Breast Augmentation Department of Nanjing Plastic Surgery Hospital, as a professional plastic surgery hospital, usually needs preoperative examination before breast augmentation surgery. This process is very important for the safety and postoperative effect of the operation. The necessity of preoperative examination is described in detail from several aspects.

physical examination

The first aspect of preoperative examination is physical examination. By checking the patient's physical indicators, we can know whether the patient's physical condition is suitable for breast augmentation surgery. For example, the doctor will check the patient's blood pressure, heart rate, lung function, etc. to determine whether there is hypertension, heart disease or respiratory system disease and other conditions that are not suitable for surgery. In addition, the doctor will also check the patient's breast to see if the breast tissue is healthy, if there is a breast lump or other abnormalities.

Physical examination can eliminate some surgical contraindications, reduce the risk of surgery and ensure the safety of surgery.

Mammography

In addition to physical examination, preoperative mammography is also required. This examination method can more intuitively observe the internal structure of the breast, understand the breast volume, gland tissue distribution and other conditions. Mammography usually adopts ultrasonic examination and mammography.

Mammography examination can not only determine the feasibility of the operation, but also help doctors to select the appropriate breast augmentation surgery methods and prosthesis types. For example, for patients with small breasts, doctors can recommend the selection of appropriate size prostheses according to the ultrasonic examination results to achieve the ideal breast effect.

Preoperative psychological assessment

Preoperative psychological evaluation is a very important part of breast augmentation surgery. Before surgery, doctors usually arrange psychological consultants to communicate with patients face to face to understand their expectations, psychological status and tolerance for surgery. By paying close attention to patients' inner feelings, doctors can better understand patients' needs and provide accurate preoperative guidance and suggestions.

Psychological assessment can help patients establish correct expectations for surgery and prevent postoperative psychological problems. For patients with potential psychological problems, doctors can give psychological support in advance to ensure the stability of the surgical effect and the mental health of patients.

Preoperative communication and signing of informed consent

*After that, preoperative examination included preoperative communication and signing of informed consent. Preoperative communication is an important link between doctors and patients. Through communication with patients, doctors can understand patients' expectations and needs in detail, and can also inform patients of the risks of surgery and postoperative nursing requirements.

On the basis of communication, the doctor will ask the patient to read and sign the informed consent form, so as to ensure that the patient fully understands the possible risks during the operation, and takes corresponding responsibilities for the operation results.
