Farzin Goravanchi
MD Anderson Cancer Center, USA
Breast cancer surgery is associated with high stress. The recognition of stress and management of its effects on patient recovery will
be presented. 1- Focus our efforts on patient risk identification, 2- Patient education, 3- Optimization of patient cardiovascular
function status, 4- Standardize of perioperative management of the patients (currently many types of anesthetics and techniques of
post operative managemtn are used), 5- Clinical data capture (perioperative complications, surveys to quantify symptom burden,
functional recovery, develop and capture medical readiness for discharge, cancer recurrence and survival information). 6- cost of care
measures. 7- embrace new improved techniques and technologies. Paravertebral block as an anesthetic technique will be introduced
and its peri-operative effects will be introduced in stress reduction. Recognition and managent of stress may lead to reduction of
posoperative complications, minimize symptom burden, improve functional recovery, improve long term outcomes, and improve
oncological outcomes.
