Breast self-examination glove SensifemmeIt is used for detecting the occurrence of any change in the shape or the normal breast size so it can be treated early.One of the biggest preventions for this disease that affects not only adults, but currently more and more young women, is self-breast examination. If the breast is divided into four parts we can see that as many ducts are located in the upper outer quadrant of the breast (next to the armpits). This is where most of the malignant breast tumours (50%) develop. The breast contains a variable number of lobules, between 10 and 20, and as many excretory milk ducts leading to the nipple. These globules are responsible for producing breast milk. With self-examination, you will get to know the normal structure of your breasts and you will be able to discover any further anomalies that might occur. 95% of the cases of breast cancer can be cured, if it is detected on time.The innovative factor of the glove is the increased sensitivity of the fingers which ranges from 3 to 8 times, thanks to the combination of the material used for manufacturing and special oil between the two layers that form the glove. Its efficacy has been tested in the Department of Biotechnology of the University of Alicante.The study was conducted with microspheres which size was between 0.04 and 1.40 millimetres.Between 93.2 % (right hand) and 100% (left hand) cases increased 3.3 times the touch sensitivity.Between 53.3 % (right hand) and 67% (left hand) cases increased 6.6 times the touch sensitivity.Between 20% (right hand) and 14% (left hand) cases increased 8.3 times the touch sensitivity.Another conclusion obtained from the results was that the glove SENSIFEMME has more capacity to increase the touch sensitivity when the particle size is smaller, making it very suitable for the early detection of small breast lumps.Risk Factors:• Sex: It occurs mainly in women. It can also affect men although the probability is lower.• Age: 60% of breast cancers occur in women over 60 years and the remaining 40% in the younger ones.• Genes: There are two genes, BRCA1 and BRCA2, which mutated form can cause breast cancer.• Family history: If a first-degree relative (mother, sister or daughter) has had breast cancer, the risk of suffering doubles. If a more distant relative (grandmother, aunt or cousin), the risk increases only slightly.• Periods: The sooner the first menstruation occurs (before age 12), the highest risk of breast cancer when compared to these for who it started later. Women with late menopause (after age 55) also have a higher risk.• Lifestyle: Alcohol abuse, smoking, obesity, etc… increases the risk of breast cancer.SENSI FEMME Advantages:• It increases touch sensitivity, allowing a faster and more accurately detection of any unknown swelling, even lumps of the size of a pinhead or a sugar grain. In case of breast cancer, early diagnosis greatly increases the chance of cure.• It provides a more uniform palpation without resistance or friction that may affect the touch.• It magnifies the perception of the tissues of the breast.• It allows a more effective and simple self-examination within the privacy of home.• It detects more accurately changes in the structure of the skin or chest.• It is especially useful if the touch with your fingers is painful.If you have any questions about the performance of the technique, do not hesitate to consult your doctor, gynaecologist and/or nurse.
