Breast & Lymphedema Society
Breast & Lymphedema Society is a dedicated professional initiative focused on advancing breast care and lymphedema management. This is planned with multi-pronged approach. First and foremost, we emphasize enhancing the skills of already established surgeons and colleagues by expert led workshops and clinical education.
We also want to equip healthcare professionals with practical skills, updated knowledge and evidence-based techniques to improve patient outcome. Our program also is designed towards physiotherapists and nurses, so that a one stop solution for progressed and lymphedema care can be established in most of the setups across the country. And patients will not have to visit multiple centers for a complete care of the same condition.
Please add module 3 and module 4. Module 3 is directed towards physiotherapists. It will include 1, lymphatic massage, decongestant, lymphatic anatomy, a, b, measurements of the lymphedema patient, standardized care protocol, decongestive therapy, use of lymphopress and other equipments for the same. Module 4 towards nurses for PICC line, chemoport removal, sterilized care of the patient, dressings, applying compression bandages, ultrasound guided PICC line insertion, establishing venous lines through venous flow meter.
