Helpful Hints for the Poster Presentation
Overview
· This assessment builds of the foundation you established in your poster abstract, but you now need to extend and incorporate the pathophysiology and pharmacology of your chosen topic. You may source some of this information from textbooks.
· You are required to provide your poster via MyLO assignment folder prior to or on the due date (please see your unit outline for details).
· You must be available during week 7, 8 or 9 to present your poster.
· The target audience for your poster presentation is experienced Registered Nurse.
· You are encouraged to refer to the poster rubric when you are planning your poster content, design, and prior to final submission.
· At the presentation, you are expected to be organised, well-informed about your topic and provide articulate responses.
· Your grade and feedback will be available on MyLO when all presentations have been marked and moderated.
· You must appropriately acknowledge all sources of information, including images.
· To produce an effective poster you require nothing more complex than Microsoft Office programs or similar (Word or Power Point). If you do not have either of these available on computer then there are very good ‘freeware’ programs available, such as Open Office.
· Please read the FAQ sheet for further information
· This is an example of layout (Thank you to Sonya for sharing her work). Please be mindful that the criteria for this assessment has changed since this poster was undertaken.

Nursing care considerations for the post-operative
mastectomy patient
Sonya J. Moore
Launceston Campus
Figure 1. Front view of
breast. Locating the
axillary lymph node
dissection is often done
concurrently with
mastectomy to evaluate
the local spread of the
cancer
.
Surgical Procedure Description
Breast-conserving
procedures: Lumpectomy
Wide excision
Partial mastectomy
Segmental mastectomy
Quadrantectomy
Removal of varying
amounts of breast tissue,
including the malignant
tissue and some
surrounding tissue to
ensure clear margins;
axillary lymph nodes are
also removed with these
procedures, if the cancer
was of the invasive type
Axillary lymph node
dissection (ALND)
Removal of some or all
axillary lymph nodes for
determination of extent of
disease spread; the single
most important determinant
for prognosis and treatment
Sentinel node biopsy Minimally invasive surgical technique used to assess
the axilla in clinically
negative node patients that
may result in less arm
morbidity than ALND
Total mastectomy Removal of the breast tissue only; this procedure
is generally done for the
treatment of carcinoma in
situ, typically ductal
Modified radical
mastectomy
Removal of breast tissue
and an axillary lymph node
dissection; the pectoralis
major and minor muscles
remain intact
Radical mastectomy Removal of the breast tissue along with pectoralis
major and minor muscles in
conjunction with an axillary
lymph node dissection
Surgical Treatment of Breast Cancer
Post-Operative Nursing Care
Anatomy of the Breast
Background
Post-operative nursing care for the mastectomy patient
refers to the care required in the immediate period
following surgery and up until the patient is discharged.
During the recovery period, it is crucial for nurses to
observe the patient closely to identify potential problems,
enable a safe and timely recovery and prevent possible
complications from occurring. This guide is not designed
to replace routine post-operative nursing care policy and
procedures but should rather be read in conjunction with.
Surgical Complications
Observation Explanation
Lymphoedema • Can occur at any time after an axillary dissection and results if
functioning lymphatic channels are
inadequate to ensure a return flow
of lymph fluid to the general
circulation
• Signs and symptoms may include;
swelling of the affected limb,
reddening of the skin, pitting or pain
Haematoma
formation
• May occur after either mastectomy
or breast conservation and usually
develops within the first 12 hours
post surgery
• Signs and symptoms may include;
gross swelling, tightness, pain or
bruising at the surgical site or
increased bloody output from the
surgical drain
Seroma
formation
• May accumulate under the breast
incision after mastectomy or breast
conservation or in the axilla
• Signs and symptoms may include;
swelling, heaviness, discomfort or
‘sloshing’ of fluid
Wound infection • Can occur after breast surgery if the patient has a concurrent condition
or is exposed to pathogens
• Signs and symptoms may include;
redness, foul-smelling drainage,
temperature greater than 38°C
Special Considerations
• Risk factors for lymphoedema are increasing age,
obesity, presence of extensive axillary disease,
radiation treatment and injury or infection to the
extremity
• Transient odema usually occurs in the post-operative
period after removal of axillary nodes until collateral or
axillary circulation has fully assumed functioning
• Fluid found in surgical drain/s will initially appear bloody
and then gradually change to a serous fluid within a
few days
• Seromas may develop temporarily after surgical drain/s
have been removed or if the drain becomes obstructed
and could lead to infection
• Some patients may experience phantom sensations in
the breast months after their operation
• Because of altered post-operative sensation in the
surgical area, avoid extreme hot or cold temperatures
on the affected arm
• Not all patients will be candidates for breast
reconstruction after a mastectomy
Clinical
Manifestations
Nursing Interventions
Tests and
treatments: Vital signs, O2
saturations,
prolonged
immobilisation,
circulation and
wound care
• Ensure blood pressure tests,
injections and venipuncture are
performed on the patient’s unaffected
arm to avoid causing pain, injury or
infection
• Encourage deep breathing and
frequent coughing to improve lung
function after general anesthesia.
Consider providing the patient with an
incentive spirometer to use
• Ensure compression stockings are
worn after surgery to decrease the
possibility of blood clots forming in
legs due to prolonged immobilisation
• Encourage patient to elevate the arm
above the level of the heart on a pillow
for 45 minutes three times daily to
promote circulation and reduce
transient odema
• Ensure correct management of drains
and measure output every 4 hours for
24 hours post-operation and
encourage self care of wound and
dressing
Activity: Ambulation and
post mastectomy
exercises
• Encourage ambulation when patient is
free of post-anaesthesia nausea
supporting non-operative side
• Hand, shoulder and arm exercises are
initiated on the second postoperative
day to increase circulation and muscle
strength, prevent joint stiffness and
contractures and restore full range of
motion
Medications: Opioid use
• If the patient is taking an opioid
analgesic, assess bowel function daily
and initiate a bowel protocol to
prevent opioid-induced constipation
Referrals/discharge
plans: Drain care and
management,
emotional
support and
referrals
• Provide patient with written discharge
instructions for correct management of
the drainage system at home as
drains are usually left in place for 7 to
10 days
• Provide opportunity for patient to meet
with Social Worker or Breast Cancer
Nurse for emotional support
• A referral to a physiotherapist may be
necessary for a custom-made elastic
sleeve or exercises
• A referral to community-based care
may be necessary to assist the
patient, family or carer with post-
operative care at home

Amthan Zip/Poster_Abstract__Rhabdomyolysis.docx
Title - Rhabdomyolysis: Taking aggressive action to avoid complications
Background
Rhabdomyolysis can be a potentially life-threatening condition because it can cause significant consequences such as kidney injury; this condition can occur from a variety of different causes. Essentially this condition occurs from skeletal tissue breaking down into the circulatory system and releasing enzymes that can be toxic to the organs such as kidneys (Khan 2009). It is a topic of importance particularly because many young people in Australia are engaging in extreme fitness behaviours that can cause this condition and thus hospitals are seeing a rise in its presentation; therefore nurses need to be aware of how to treat the condition appropriately to avoid complications (Khan 2009).
Target Audience
This presentation has been prepared for the target audience of Registered Nurses and thus some prior knowledge has been assumed.
Main Findings
Implications for Practice
This information described is very important for nurses to be aware of because it is vital that rapid and aggressive treatment occurs. Nurses must be able to quickly identify cases of rhabdomyolysis and immediately remove the cause of the condition and begin aggressive fluid therapy in order to prevent complications such as kidney injury; without following such treatment guidelines, the condition can be fatal.
