(047) A Systematic Review of Partner Satisfaction after Penile Prosthesis and Review of Patient Satisfaction in LGBTQ+ Men after Penile Prosthesis

Abstract Introduction Erectile dysfunction (ED), known to negatively affect both patient and partner quality-of-life (QoL), is estimated to affect more than 30 million men in the United States. Penile prosthesis (PP) implantation has been shown to be a successful surgical option for men with erectile dysfunction refractory to medical treatment. Several recent studies have demonstrated post-surgical patient satisfaction rates of >90% using validated, non-specific tools such as the International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF) and the Erectile Dysfunction Inventory of Treatment Satisfaction (EDITS). Objective Despite the progress in examining the satisfaction of heterosexual male patients with PP implantation, there has been no thorough review of partner satisfaction and QoL. Our objective was to summarize the current literature around partner satisfaction for heterosexual patients and patient satisfaction for LGBQT+ patients, respectively. We specifically conducted a systematic review according to the Cochrane and preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and meta-analyses (PRISMA) standards and stratified studies into three tiers by methodological rigor. Methods A PRISMA systematic literature review was performed using the PubMed database in March 2022. For the heterosexual partner review, a search was conducted to find all relevant abstracts regarding ‘penile prosthesis’, ‘partner satisfaction’, and ‘partner quality of life’. For the LGBQT+ review, ‘MSM’, ‘gay’, ‘homosexual’, ‘queer’, and ‘heterosexual’ were used as additional search terms. The research was limited to English-language articles from January 2000 to March 2022. The list of studies generated by the search was screened to identify eligible studies. Inclusion criteria included a clinical outcome study with primary outcomes related to penile prosthesis, and partner satisfaction was included as an outcome measure. Exclusion criteria included case reports, review articles, animal studies, and patient satisfaction studies that did not include partner satisfaction. Studies for the partner satisfaction review were sorted into three tiers based on the accuracy and external validity of each study’s methods. Results After an initial search of 172 articles, 30 studies met the inclusion criteria for the partner satisfaction review (Table 1). For our LGBTQ review, three studies consisting of 129 patients met the inclusion criteria from an initial search of 13 records (Table 2). For our partner satisfaction review, 10 studies were classified as Tier 1, 11 studies were classified as Tier 2, and 9 studies were classified as Tier 3. Across all the tiers, studies noted partner satisfaction rates between 50%-90% and improved satisfaction and sexual QoL metrics compared to pre-surgery rates. Overall, although partner satisfaction rates were high after PP implantation, many studies noted slightly lower partner satisfaction rates than patient satisfaction rates. Satisfaction rates among LGBTQ patients after PP implantation varied greatly between studies, ranging from 11% to 93% satisfaction. Conclusions Although the quality of evidence varies, the available literature suggests relatively high rates of partner satisfaction after PP implantation, in addition to varying rates of patient satisfaction after PP implantation in LGBTQ patients. Given the diversity of study designs and widespread use of non-validated or non-specific questionnaires in the current literature, future research should focus on prospective studies and/or data collection using validated, PP-specific questionnaires.

A Review of Patient Satisfaction and Experience with Telemedicine: A Virtual Solution During and Beyond COVID-19 Pandemic

Introduction: This article reviews the studies examining patients' perspective toward telemedicine and their preference for virtual health care services. Methods: An electronic literature search using PubMed was conducted to identify relevant research studies published between December 2019 and August 2020. Twenty-five studies were selected out of 1,041 studies based on inclusion and exclusion criteria, which highlight patients' satisfaction and experience with the use of telemedicine during the pandemic. Results: The findings based upon 48,144 surveyed patients and 146 providers in 12 different countries revealed high satisfaction with virtual encounters across a spectrum of diseases. Telemedicine was found satisfactory on various outcome measures, such as addressing patients' concerns, communication with health care providers, usefulness, and reliability. Most common advantages were time saved due to lesser traveling and waiting time, better accessibility, convenience, and cost efficiency. Age and sex did not significantly impact the satisfaction levels. Physicians and patients both showed a strong preference for continued usage and agreed upon telemedicine's potential to complement the regular health care services even after the pandemic. Technical challenges (reported in 10 studies) and lack of physical examination (reported in 13 studies) were the main limitations encountered in virtual visits. Conclusions: Long-term sustainability of telemedicine for all socioeconomic classes requires closer scrutiny of issues such as technology, training, reimbursement, data privacy, legal guidelines, and framework. Telemedicine must be adopted as a proactive strategy and scaled-up even beyond emergency usage due to its immense potential in complementing conventional health care services, such as diagnosis, treatment, follow-up, surveillance, and infection control.

Skin-sparing mastectomy with immediate nipple reconstruction during autologous latissimus dorsi breast reconstruction: A review of patient satisfaction.

BackgroundNipple-areolar complex (NAC) reconstruction following curative mastectomy is traditionally performed as a second-stage procedure several months after initial breast reconstruction. The recent literature has documented the increasing popularity of immediate nipple reconstruction carried out simultaneously during autologous reconstruction. The aim of this study was to evaluate the surgical outcomes and patient satisfaction with immediate breast and nipple reconstruction performed in a single stage after skin-sparing mastectomy.MethodsAll patients who underwent a skin-sparing mastectomy with immediate latissimus dorsi flap breast and NAC reconstruction as a single-stage procedure from 2007 to 2015 were included. Patient demographics, oncologic details, and surgical outcomes were recorded. The BREAST-Q questionnaire was administered to patients to assess the impact and effectiveness of this reconstructive strategy.ResultsDuring the study period, 34 breast and NAC reconstructions in 29 patients were performed at Cork University Hospital. The majority of our patient cohort were non-smokers (93.1%) and did not receive adjuvant radiotherapy. Postoperative complications were infrequent, with no cases of partial necrosis or complete loss of the nipple. The response rate to the BREAST-Q was 62% (n=18). Patients reported high levels of satisfaction with the reconstructed breast (62±4), nipple reconstruction (61±4.8), overall outcome (74.3±5), and psychosocialwell-being (77.7±3.2).ConclusionsSkin-sparing mastectomy with immediate nipple reconstruction during autologous latissimus dorsi reconstruction was demonstrated to be a safe and aesthetically reliable procedure in our cohort, yielding high levels of psychological and physical well-being. A single-stage procedure promotes psychosocial well-being involving issues that are intrinsically linked with breast cancer surgery.

Management of vascular lesions of the mouth and lips using a potassium titanyl phosphate (KTP) laser: review of patient satisfaction

We reviewed patient satisfaction with the management of oral vascular lesions using a potassium titanyl phosphate (KTP) laser. Questionnaires consisting of 10 questions were given to 95 patients who had had laser treatment for oral vascular lesions between September 2007 and July 2009. A five-point scale ranging from poor (1) to very good (5) was used for the responses. Seventy-one percent of patients responded. Overall, they were very satisfied with the process of laser treatment (mean score more than 4.5/5), but were less satisfied with the levels of comfort 24 h after the procedure (mean score 3.7/5), and after one week (mean score 4.2/5). As postoperative discomfort was highlighted as an area of dissatisfaction for some patients, modifications to aftercare instructions may improve this aspect of the service.

Patient satisfaction under managed care

In the USA, health maintenance organizations (HMOs) have pledged to control health care costs. Many patients have complained about the quality of care under the HMO regime and limits imposed on them, particularly access to care. Has quality of care been degraded under the HMO regime, resulting in an impact on patient satisfaction? There have been many studies that have compared the satisfaction of HMO patients with that of patients in the traditional fee-for-service payment system. The aim of this paper is to review HMO patient satisfaction. A review of patient satisfaction under managed care arrangements with a focus on HMOs. The article describes the US history of managed care and its effect on the satisfaction of several patient categories including the general population, vulnerable patients and the elderly. There is much information available on patient satisfaction with their insurers and most surveys indicate the lack of choice of a provider--a major source of discontent. Therefore, patient protection laws are necessary to avoid abuse. Patients have little ability or are not willing to rely on the information available when selecting a provider. The paper discusses patient awareness regarding satisfaction surveys and how the latter can be used when patients are seeking care.

This paper examines the way patient satisfaction is perceived in the dental literature. The majority of studies carried out since the early 1980s concentrate on patient perceptions of various service quality attributes and the role that sociodemographic variables play in determining satisfaction. Recent work concerning attribution theory suggests that two concepts, duty and culpability, may be central to explaining this process.
