NCT07607990
The postoperative incidence of catheter-related bladder discomfort (CRBD) ranges from 47% to 95%. It increases postoperative pain and agitation, thus requiring early intervention. Although a variety of drugs are used for the prevention or treatment of CRBD, the adverse reactions of most of these drugs have limited their clinical application. In long-term clinical practice, we found that indomethacin suppository has a good therapeutic effect on the discomfort of pelvic-related organs caused by nociceptive stimulation. However, its preventive effect on CRBD has not been reported yet. We hypothesized that indomethacin suppository has a preventive effect on postoperative CRBD. To verify this hypothesis, patients undergoing laparoscopic radical prostatectomy were enrolled in the study. Patients in the intervention group received 50 mg of indomethacin suppository via the rectal route immediately after surgery, while those in the control group received no treatment. The severity of CRBD, pain scores, consumption of analgesics, other perioperative adverse reactions, and patient satisfaction were observed and recorded at 0, 1, 2, and 6 hours after surgery.

The 'Robotic Prostatectomy Artificial Intelligence Low Pressure Pain Study Trial' aims to assess the feasibility of being able to review operative outcomes such as pain when comparing two commonly used surgical devices for the removal of prostate cancers. The data collected will inform methodologies for future, larger, multi-center trials investigating pain in patients undergoing prostate cancer surgery. A robotic prostatectomy is a commonly performed surgery used to treat prostate cancer by removing the prostate gland. In order to perform the procedure, the surgeon must 'inflate' (technical term pneumoperitoneum) the patients abdomen with carbon dioxide gas using a device called an insufflator. Adequate 'inflation' of the abdomen ensures the surgeon can clearly visualise the prostate. Unfortunately, higher pressures of abdominal 'inflation' are a large contributor to intra and post-operative pain in patients having prostatectomies. The type of insufflator device used to maintain inflation pressures in the abdomen are thought to be a variable contributing to differing levels of intra and post-operative pain. Therefore, the purpose of this trial is to compare intra and post-operative pain when using two different insufflator devices when performing robotic prostatectomies. Both insufflators are already commonly used across multiple NHS Trusts. 40 patients awaiting a robotic prostatectomy at the urology department at the Lister hospital, Stevenage, will be randomised to use either the Conventional Insufflator System (CIS) {Stryker PneumoClear Insufflator} or the AIRSEAL® Insufflation System (AIS) to 'inflate' their abdomens during their prostatectomies. Data relating to various intra and post-operative outcomes will be collected in the 30 days following the patient's operation. Outcomes include levels of intra and post-operative pain, medication use, procedure time, recovery room time, length of hospital stay, post operative nausea and vomiting and adverse events. This data can be analysed to identify trends in differences in outcomes between the AIS and CIS insufflators.

The study aims to compare the efficacy of different pelvic floor muscle training (PFMT) modes on improving urinary incontinence (UI) recovery in prostate cancer (PCa) patients after radical prostatectomy (RP). The methods being compared include standard PFMT (S-PFMT) , a somatosensory interactive PFMT (SI-PFMT, an enhanced PFMT) , and a standard PFMT combined with pelvic floor muscle magnetic stimulation (S-PFMT+MS). Eligible participants are randomized into either of the groups to receive different modalities of post-operative PFMT. Subjects in the S-PFMT group received traditional verbal instructions and paper-based educational materials. For the SI-PFMT group, an interactive experiential education model was adopted. First, an educational video introduced the importance and basic information of postoperative PFMT. Then, synchronized PFMT guidance through a combination of audio and video would be used. Subjects assigned to the S-PFMT+MS group, on the basis of traditional verbal and paper-based education, pelvic floor magnetic stimulation therapy was applied using a pelvic floor magnetic stimulator, operated by the same experienced rehabilitation physician. Self administered questionnaires and 1-hour pad test would be used to assess the treatment outcomes at 1, 3, and 6 months postoperatively.
NCT06907641
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare 64Cu-SAR-bisPSMA PET/CT and 68Ga PSMA-11 PET/CT in men with biochemical failure following radical prostatectomy. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Is there a difference in the number of lesions of prostate cancer recurrence detected between the 64Cu-SAR-bisPSMA PET/CT and 68Ga PSMA-11 PET/CT scans. * What is the diagnostic accuracy of 64Cu-SAR-bisPSMA PET/CT compared to 68Ga PSMA-11 PET/CT using a standard of care comparator. * Evaluate the magnitude of clinical management change when using 64Cu-SAR-bisPSMA additional to standard of care imaging (68Ga PSMA-11). Participants will: * have 3 visits: 1) standard of care 68Ga PSMA-11 dose and PET/CT scan; 2) 64Cu-SAR-bisPSMA dose and PET/CT; 3) 64Cu-SAR-bisPSMA PET/CT only * have standard of care blood test either at Visit 1 or Visit 2
NCT06617481
Flotufolastat F-18, sold under the brand name Posluma, is a radioactive diagnostic agent for use with positron emission tomography (PET) imaging for prostate cancer. The research is being done to study the capability of 18F-rhPSMA-7.3 (flotufolastat F-18) PET scan to detect prostate cancer when there are very low levels of Prostate-Specific Antigen (PSA) following previous radical prostatectomy surgery.
