- W2269816027 abstract "S S77 future trial should test a physical activity intervention including a supervised component throughout to maximise adherence. http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.ejso.2015.03.217 P180. Audit of referrals to a family history clinic Kate Foster, Philippa Dooher, Syed Ahmed, Ashraf Patel 1 Princess Alexandra Hospital NHS Trust, Harlow Essex, UK 2 Southend General Hospital, Southend Essex, UK The London Clinic, London, UK Background: Guidelines were issued by NICE in 2004 and further updated in 2006 and 2013 for the management of women with a family history of breast cancer. This led to the establishment of a dedicated breast cancer family history clinic in this district general hospital. The experience from this risk assessment clinic and how it has evolved is presented here. Material and methods: The clinic was originally set up with a research grant from the QUEST cancer research charity. Women with a family history of breast cancer were referred to this clinic by their general practitioner or breast clinician. Women were asked to complete a family history questionnaire. This questionnaire assisted in creating a pedigree for each woman. Originally in late 2006 these patients’ pedigrees were handwritten, then entered onto Progeny software, but by August 2009 this was replaced by FaHRAS software which is still in use. Using the NICE guidelines the women were categorised into population, moderate and high risk groups and managed accordingly. Results: Between August 2009 and December 2014 a total of 1262 patients have been assessed in the clinic. A further 64 were referred directly to the regional genetics service. An additional 191 were declined at the initial triage stage as population risk. Of those seen, 165 (13%) are near population risk, 474 (38%) are moderate risk and 623 (49%) are high risk. A total of 550 patients were referred to or had been seen by the regional genetics service. Of them, 181 were offered testing for the BRCA gene mutations. Of these, 145 have been tested, 58 BRCA 1 or BRCA 2 mutation carriers were identified, 43 tested negative (including those tested for Ashkenazi Jewish mutations only) and 44 were inconclusive (including variant of unknown significance).Since testing positive for a BRCA mutation, 10 women have undergone bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy (BSO) alone, 5 have had risk-reducing bilateral mastectomy (RRM) alone, and 4 have had both BSO and RRM. Conclusion/Summary: The family history clinic provides a comprehensive service to women with a breast cancer family history encompassing specialised risk analysis, clinical and radiological assessment and appropriate counselling. There is a high demand for this service in a district general hospital A significant proportion of these women will require genetic counselling A number of these women will go on to require further specialist management such as risk-reducing surgery. http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.ejso.2015.03.218 P181. Integration of physical activity into breast cancer care pathway “Can-Move” programme Catherine Fitzsimmons, Zahida Saad Salford Royal NHS Foundation Trust, Salford, UK Introduction: Cancer survival is improving due to early diagnosis, and improved treatment. This means that more patients are living with the long term effects of cancer including fatigue, weight gain, psychological issues etc. In the past patients were advised to rest during and after their treatment but there is growing evidence suggesting that staying active during and after treatment can significantly reduce the negative side effects of cancer. Recent review of evidence (Macmillan 2012) demonstrates that moderate exercise can have a beneficial effect. 150 minutes of exercise per week can reduce breast cancer mortality by 40%. A Pilot study “Can-Move” was commenced locally in February 2014 to provide a structured programme of 12 weeks exercise designed for patients diagnosed with breast, colorectal and prostate cancer. It is delivered by an exercise specialist from the active life styles team. Methods: The breast team has been recruiting into this programme. Physical activity is discussed with individual patients during their holistic needs assessment at time of diagnosis. Following agreement between the clinical nurse specialist and the patient appropriate referral is made to the “Active Lifestyles” team. The patient is assessed and a physical activity plan is designed and tailored to suit the individual. Results: 1st MarcheSeptember 2014,129 total number of referrals, (71 Breast patients) 90% report an increase in physical activity levels from the baseline. 86% report enhanced confidence to self-manage their condition using physical activity. 89% report enhanced wellbeing scores on WEMWBS. Conclusion: Staying active/ exercising enhances the wellbeing of patients with cancer. This Pilot study has been extended to March 2016. http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.ejso.2015.03.219 P182. Evaluation of the benefits of breast reconstruction information evenings Sandra Cookson, Nick Cawrse, Sisse Olsen Royal Devon and Exeter NHS Foundation Trust, Exeter, UK Introduction: Women considering breast reconstruction face many difficult choices. Breast reconstruction information evenings were initiated at the Royal Devon & Exeter Hospital (RD&E) in 2011 to provide information and peer support for women considering breast reconstruction. They are facilitated by the Breast Reconstruction Nurse Specialist and supported by medical and nursing staff. Information evenings are held three times a year at the local cancer support centre and are advertised in advance. The aim of the audit was assess the value of peer support and the benefit of providing information in a group setting. Method: Questionnaires were handed out to all women at consecutive information evenings between July 2011 and November 2014. The audit was based on the standard hospital design for auditing support groups. Results: 10 meetings have been held at the RD&E attended by a total of 171 women. The response rate was 58%. (100/171) 100% (100) of respondents would recommend the evening to other women considering breast reconstruction. 90% (90) women valued meeting and talking to the patient volunteers and seeing the results of surgery. 80% (80) women valued talking to healthcare professionals in this setting. 60% (60) women felt the evening supported their decision to go ahead with breast reconstruction. Conclusions: Women value peer support fromwomenwho have already had a breast reconstruction. This may help in their decision making. Women valued the opportunity to talk to healthcare professionals. Providing information on breast reconstruction in this format has been well received. http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.ejso.2015.03.220 P183. Implementing short-stay major breast surgery e The challenges and the achievements Amanda Snippe, Imelda Hughes, Clare Brearley, Donna Bolton Pennine Acute Hospitals NHS Trust, Manchester, UK Introduction: Short-stay major breast surgery was introduced to Pennine Acute Hospitals NHS Trust in 2011 in answer to the Government’s Quality Improvement programme. The recommendation was for 80% of patients, who were undergoing a mastectomy or wide local excision plus axillary surgery, to have their procedure as a day case. As our Trust covers a wide geographical area and caters for patients who have lower incomes and" @default.
