What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Investigator Overall Satisfaction With the Device Using a 5-Point Scale

    The investigator evaluated the overall satisfaction with the device using a 5-point scale where 1=definitely dissatisfied with the device to 5=definitely satisfied with the device.

    Measured: 3 months

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Subject Satisfaction With Breasts Using the BREAST-Q Questionnaire

    Participants evaluated satisfaction with their breasts using the BREAST-Q. Summary scores were computed by summing the score of each response and transferring them to a 0 (worst) to 100 (best) scale.

    Measured: 6 months

  2. Investigator Evaluation of Whether the Implant is Palpably Distinguishable From the Tissue

    The investigator examined the breasts and evaluated whether the implant was palpably distinguishable from the tissue using a 5-point scale where 1=implant very easy to distinguish from the tissue to 5=implant indistinguishable from the tissue.

    Measured: 6 months

  3. Percentage of Participants With Capsular Contracture Evaluated by Four-Grade Baker Scale

    The investigator evaluated capsular contracture (lining of cells formed around the device as the body's response to a foreign object) using the Four-Grade Baker scale where: Grade I= Breast is normally soft and looks natural, Grade II= Breast is a little firm but looks normal, Grade III=Breast is firm and looks abnormal or Grade IV= Breast is hard, painful, and looks abnormal. The percentage of participants in each Baker Grade is reported.

    Measured: Interim analysis: 12 months

  4. Percentage of Participants With Local Complications

    The percentage of participants experiencing local complications (in the area of the implant) is reported.

    Measured: Interim analysis: 12 months
