Tranexamic Acid to Improve Same-day Discharge Rates After Holmium Laser Enucleation of the Prostate...

Kidney CalculiUrologic Diseases1 more

This study is designed to assess if there is a significant difference in same day discharge rates after Holmium Laser Enucleation of the Prostate (HoLEP). The investigators attempt to perform HoLEP as a same-day discharge (SDD) procedure, but at Northwestern Memorial, the SDD rate is currently approximately 60%. The limiting factor in SDD is hematuria. Tranexamic acid (TXA) is a clot promoting drug that is commonly used by orthopedic, cardiac and obstetric surgeons to prevent bleeding. The primary outcome will be to assess if there is a difference in SDD rates in those who receive TXA vs. those who do not. Secondary outcomes will assess bleeding complications (defined as unplanned ED visit/clinic visit/procedure/admission related to bleeding, clot retention, clot evacuation, need for perioperative transfusion) between participants who receive TXA vs. those do not. The study will also assess differences in perioperative complications associated with TXA including but not limited to: deep venous thrombosis, pulmonary embolism, cerebrovascular events, between the groups. The study will also assess for the duration of postoperative hematuria between groups as well as differences in operative times between the groups. The investigators anticipate that there may be up to a 25% increase in SDD rates in those who receive TXA vs. those who do not.

Lower Urinary Tract SymptomsProstatic Hyperplasia2 more

The goal of this single-centre prospective randomized clinical trial is to compare the post-operative use of temporary prostatic stent (Group 1) vs indwelling catheter (Group 2) in patients undergoing cryotherapy for targeted therapy of localized prostate cancer, transurethral water vapor energy ablation (REZUM) or transperineal laser ablation of the prostate with EchoLaser™ system for the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) The main questions are: Difference in quality of life, Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms (scored with IPSS, International Prostate Symptom Score), urinary continence symptoms (scored with International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire-Urinary Incontinence Short Form, ICIQ-UI-SF) and patient satisfaction between indwelling catheter and temporary prostatic stent (Exime®) score with a non-validated questionnaire (Stent/catheter-related urinary symptoms questionnaire) Difference in side effects and complications between indwelling catheter and temporary prostatic stent (Exime®) A total 120 of patients will be enrolled (Group 1: 60; Group 2: 60) with a 1:1 randomization ratio. The follow-up duration will be 6 months.

PROARTE -PROstate ARTery to Reduce the Symptoms of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia

Benign Prostatic HyperplasiaLower Urinary Tract Symptoms

This is a trial to demonstrate the superiority of prostate artery embolization (PAE) over sham procedure in men with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) induced lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS). The trial will aim to enroll 108 patients at a 2:1 allocation over a 2 year period.

Customized TULSA-PRO Ablation Registry

Prostate CancerProstate Adenocarcinoma1 more

This patient registry will capture data from patients who have been or who are undergoing the transurethral ultrasound ablation (TULSA) procedure as part of their routine clinical care. The registry will shed light on real-world outcomes of safety and efficacy of the procedure and understand how a patient's quality of life is affected throughout their follow-up and lifetime.

Top-Down Holmium Laser Enucleation of the Prostate (HoLEP) vs the Traditional HoLEP for Treatment...

Benign Prostatic HyperplasiaLower Urinary Tract Symptoms

Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), the non-malignant enlargement of the prostate gland, places pressure on the urethra and causes urination difficulties and bladder problems. Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms (LUTS) secondary to BPH is a common condition in aging men, with an overall prevalence of more than 50% in those older than 50 years of age. Men with LUTS often experience sexual dysfunction including ejaculatory loss, painful ejaculation, and erectile dysfunction, which among other complications can also lead to a decreased quality of life. Holmium laser enucleation of the prostate (HoLEP), first reported by Fraundorfer et al in 1998, is a more recent step in the evolution of holmium laser prostatectomy. HOLEP offers patients the alternative of being treated endoscopically with minimal blood loss, short catheterization time, and decreased hospital stay. One noted drawback to HoLEP, and the primary reason why it has yet to become the new standard for treatment of symptomatic BPH, is the complexity of this procedure, with a prolonged learning curve. Modifications to the procedure have thus been explored in order to address this limitation. The "Top-Down" HoLEP technique is a novel technique which offers potential benefits to the Traditional HoLEP procedure, including decreased complexity, a reduced learning curve, with anticipated improved continence. This study will compare the operating time between the Top-Down Holmium Laser Enucleation of the prostate (HoLEP) and the Traditional HoLEP for the treatment of patients with symptomatic bladder outlet obstruction due to BPH in Northwestern Ontario.

Enhanced Clinical Decisions for Management of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia Using Patient-Reported...

Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia

The goal of this project is to use newly developed patient-reported outcomes to improve the clinical care of patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia. The use of new patient-centered tools will improve evaluation and clinical decision-making by including symptoms not commonly measured in men, such as urinary incontinence, and allow for more frequent assessment of lower urinary tract symptoms through remote surveillance. Through the use of care-coordination checklists, clinicians can be more responsive to post-treatment symptom changes, resulting in reduced bother from lower urinary tract symptoms and higher quality of life in patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia.

The Risk Factor and Outcome of Transient Incontinence After Prostate Enucleation Surgery

Benign Prostatic HyperplasiaIncontinence

Lower urinary tract symptoms caused by benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) are the most common urological problem among men. monopolar transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP), in which the enlarged prostate tissue is resected piece by piece using a monopolar electrode, has been the gold standard since the 1970s. It can substantially improve the maximal flow rate (Qmax), urinary symptoms (International Prostate Symptom Score, IPSS), and health-related quality of life (QOL), with long-term efficacy compared to medications or other minimally invasive treatments.4 5 However, monopolar TURP is a risky procedure because of the likelihood of severe complications such as massive bleeding or transurethral resection (TUR) syndrome.6 Therefore, it is of paramount importance to develop minimally invasive surgical techniques with outcomes similar to those of monopolar TURP, but with fewer side effects. Therefore, new energy system with different surgical methods developed after 2000s. Among all, Enucleation methods was proved to have better Qmax and IPSS after surgery than vaporization and resection methods. However, the risk of short-term transient incontinence was higher in enucleation than in resection methods. Hence modified methods such as upside down, apical preservation methods, defining the limits of dissection proximal to external sphincter prior to enucleation of prostate were developed in order to reduce transient incontinence. Besides, the necessity of preoperative urodynamic study and biofeedback training, investigate the risk factors of transient incontinence are important issues. The study using prospective cohort design recruit 300 BPH patient receiving enucleation methods. To investigate the risk factors of transient incontinence and establish model to predict the incontinence. Besides we will evaluate different surgical methods and treatment methods to improve transient incontinence and the long-term results of different enucleation methods.
