Resumen
Objective: To establish a consensus regarding the multidisciplinary prevention of breast cancer-related lymphedema (BCRL), taking into account the expert opinion of professional groups from across the world involved in the identification and treatment of breast cancers. Methods: International consensus study involving a modified nominal group and Delphi process. A total of 50 preventive strategies representing those used by a range of health disciplines involved in breast cancer care were identified by the nominal group. These strategies were categorised into four subgroups (general recommendations, therapeutic approach, rehabilitation medicine and physiotherapy and dietary recommendations) and presented in survey format to a multidisciplinary panel of experts in a two-round Delphi process. Eleven specialist areas and 15 countries were represented on the panel. Results: Twenty-seven experts responded to both Delphi rounds, and the mean overall agreement after Round 2 was 85.7%. Of the 50 proposed strategies for preventing BCRL, 48 yielded consensus among experts. Conclusion: We report an international consensus for the multidisciplinary prevention of BCRL, setting out recommendations aimed at systematising the care of women with breast cancer. The consensus could provide a platform for the development of standardised clinical guidelines.
