| Abstract | Introduction: Transurethral Resection of Prostate (TURP) is the most common treatment for Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH). Blood loss during and after transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) is a potential cause of morbidity and clot retention. Usual practise is to apply traction in every case of TURP to reduce early postoperative hematuria and clot retention. There are very few studies in the literature and they have mainly concentrated on the effect of traction on reducing blood loss but there is scanty data regarding the morbidity associated with the use of traction. Various authors have described their method of traction application. So, in this study, we will compare the result of short term (10 min) traction with standard (4-6 h) traction. Materials and methods: It is a prospective comparative study with 50 participants, conducted at the department of Urology of a tertiary care hospital in eastern India after taking ethical clearance and consent from the patient. The patients attending urology O.P.D. with LUTS and diagnosed as BPH and planned for elective TURP and who had prolonged traction after TURP were excluded. Study period was one and the half year. Results: Post operatively 25 patients were managed with catheter traction while 25 patients were managed with short term traction of 10 min. Pain which is assessed by visual analog scale (VAS) at 2 and 4 h post operatively is statistically significant with Conclusion: If hemostatsis is done properly then short term traction is preferable, safe and had fewer complications for prostate volume <65 g in comparison to standard traction TURP comparing the overall factors. Although, VAS score at 2 and 4 h post operatively shows patient experienced less pain even in prostate volume >65 g. |
