Abstract

Backgrounds

A meta-analysis research was executed to appraise the effect of the continuous intervention for intraoperative pressure wound ulcers (IOPWUs) associated problems in breast cancer (BC) females.

Methods

Inclusive literature research till March 2023 was done and 436 interconnected researches were revised. The 8 picked researches, enclosed 1267 BC females were in the utilized researches' starting point, 636 of them were utilizing CI, and 631 were control. Odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were utilized to appraise the effect of CI for IOPWUs associated problems in BC females by the dichotomous, or contentious approaches and a fixed or random model.

Results

Continuous intervention had significantly lower IOPWUs (OR, 0.18; 95% CI, 0.13-0.24, p<0.001), higher Braden risk score (BRS) (OR, 2.11; 95% CI, 1.91-2.31, p<0.001), and higher quality of life (OR, 9.75; 95% CI, 6.90-12.60, p=0.02) compared to control in BC females.

Conclusions

Continuous intervention had significantly lower IOPWUs, higher BRS, and higher quality of life compared to control in BC females. However, caution must be taken when interacting with its values since there was a low number of nominated research found for some comparison in the meta-analysis.
