A Proposed Minimum Standard Set of Outcome Measures for Lymphatic Surgery: Results of a Modified Delphi Process from the Society of Lymphatic Surgery Leadership
The SLS leadership established a first minimum standard set of outcome measures for lymphatic surgery with six baseline characteristics for evaluating outcomes of lymphatic surgery. This outcome set will support the collection of meaningful data to further standardize lymphatic surgery approaches for the treatment and prevention of lymphedema.
