Filter by:Background: Patients with indwelling urinary catheter for chronic retention due to obstructive BPH refractory to medical therapy are candidates for prostatectomy still considered as the gold standard of treatment. Urinary tract infection, strictures, postoperative pain, incontinence, sexual dysfunction, anesthesiologist risk and blood loss are complications associated with surgery. Minimally invasive treatments were originally conceived as an attempt to offer equivalent efficacy without the burden and risk of operative morbidity. Recently, it was suggested that prostatic arterial embolization (PAE) to treat BPH might follow uterine artery embolization for uterine leiomyomas. Animal studies in pigs and dogs have shown that PAE is safe and can induce prostatic volume reduction. The first report of this technique in the management of BPH in humans was by DeMeritt et al, who reported a single case of BPH with obstructive symptoms and blood loss refractory to other treatments that was successfully managed by PAE with polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) particles. Objective : We investigate whether PAE might be a feasible procedure as an alternative treatment option to treat urinary retention due to obstructive BPH. The primary objective is to evaluate the success rate of procedure defined when selective prostatic arterial catheterization and embolization were achieve and patients can be able to urinate after their urinary catheter has been removed. Patients and methods : A monocentric prospective study is undertaken in 25 patients aged 50-85 years who present with indwelling urinary catheter due to obstructive BPH refractory to medical treatment with a clinical indication for surgery who agreed to undergo PAE. The study is approved by the hospital ethical committee and an informed consent form for PAE as an alternative treatment is signed by all participants. Statistical analysis : The sample size has been calculated in order to have an estimated probability of success (corresponding of primary objective) of 50% (worst case) with 95% confidence intervals of 30 to 70. The two-sample t-test (and Wilcoxon rank-sum test) is used to compare the mean changes of the variables from baseline to 10, 30 and 90 days. Finally, the Chi-square test is used to test for adverse events at the end of follow-up. P ≤ 0.05 is indicative of statistically significant.
This is a Phase I/II investigator sponsored FDA-approved Investigational Device Exemption protocol, with the primary goal of determining the safety of prostatic artery embolization (PAE) for benign prostatic hyperplasia. Our primary goal is to document the frequency of side effects, particularly bladder and rectal complications, which may occur as a result of this procedure. Secondarily, the study will provide preliminary data to determine its effectiveness in diminishing obstructive symptoms associated with BPH.
This study is designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Naftopidil in Korean male patients with with lower urinary tract symptoms associated with benign prostatic hyperplasia. The investigators hypothesized that Naftopidil which came onto marcket in Japan would effect in improvement of voiding and storage difficulty. Design: Placebo-controlled, Randomized, Double-blind, Double-dummy, Parallel group, Fixed dose design
To evaluate the safety and efficacy of the Rezūm System and assess its effect on urinary symptoms secondary to benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).
The HistoSonics' Histotripsy BPH Device, the Vortx Rx, is a portable ultrasound therapy device. The purpose of this study is to assess and monitor the performance of the Vortx Rx for initial safety and efficacy for the treatment of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia.
Epidural lidocaine is widely used in anesthesia for urologic or lower abdominal surgery because of its rapid onset. But the epidural anesthesia using high concentration of lidocaine may cause excessive motor block and unwanted side effects such as nausea, vomiting and hypotension. This is a study to determine the effective concentration of lidocaine with fentanyl in lumbar epidural anesthesia for transurethral resection of prostate in elderly patients.
We aim to determine the effectiveness of 2013 "Mag paDRE ka" programme in increasing general public awareness on prostate health and promoting prostate health assessment among Filipino males aged 40 or older.
1. i-gel 2. C-LMA Compare the effect on gastroeosephageal reflux Postoperative complicatios.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate procedure tolerability and surgical recovery following the UroLift® system procedure when conducted with local anesthesia in subjects with symptomatic benign hyperplasia (BPH). Primary effectiveness will be achieved by looking at the Quality of Recovery Visual Analog Scale (QoR VAS) by the one month follow-up visit.
Spinal anesthesia, is used during the transuretheral resection of the prostate.Low dose hyperbaric local anesthetics have been used to enhance the resolution of the spinal block. We compared the efficacy and duration of the spinal block with two different bupivacaine baricities. - Group I: low dose isobaric group - GroupII: Low dose hyperbaric group
