简要总结
The purpose of this study is to investigate whether prescribing a 3-day course of antibiotics after Holmium laser enucleation of the prostate (HoLEP) reduces the risk of urinary tract infection. The findings of this trial will have a major impact on clinical practice to either justify the prescription of antibiotics after HoLEP or give urologists more confidence in not prescribing antibiotics prophylactically after HoLEP.
详细描述
Systemic antibiotic usage is the primary driver of antimicrobial resistance both in the index patient and the community. Limiting antibiotic use to indicated patients helps reduction of the risks of antimicrobial overuse, which include associated adverse events, development of multidrug resistant (MDR) organism strains, and increased health-related community burden. (1-3) Holmium laser enucleation of the prostate (HoLEP) has been increasingly used as an effective minimally invasive procedure for the management of enlarged prostate. (4) Most guidelines currently recommend the use of single-dose antibiotic prophylaxis prior to all transurethral procedures for the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia including HoLEP. (2,3) Although, most surgeons who perform HoLEP usually extend the antibiotics prophylaxis to 3-7 days or more after HoLEP to avoid the incidence of urinary tract infection. Currently no literature that supports the benefit of prescribing antibiotics routinely to all patients after HoLEP. (5, 6) 2. Significance: This clinical trial will provide insight into the benefit of prescribing antibiotics after HoLEP. This study can be practice-changing for urologists who perform HoLEP as it will decrease the prescription of unnecessary antibiotics. This has major implications for antibiotic stewardship in the field of urology.
3. Objectives & Specific Aims: The purpose of this study is to investigate whether prescribing a 3-day course of antibiotics after HoLEP reduces the risk of urinary tract infection. The findings of this trial will have a major impact on clinical practice to either justify the prescription of antibiotics after HoLEP or give urologists more confidence in not prescribing antibiotics prophylactically after HoLEP.
The specific aims of this study are:
- Avoid the possible unnecessary generalized prolonged antibiotic prophylaxis in patients with HoLEP.
- Identify the patient and procedure factors that increase the incidence of postoperative urinary tract infection.
- Possible selection of patients who can benefit from prolonged antibiotic prophylaxis.
- Help changing the urology practice towards more antibiotic stewardship.
4. Methodology: 4.1 Study Design.
