To assess the variability in patient preparation for prostate biopsy (PBX) among practicing American urologists.
A survey was sent to 900 practicing American urologists randomly selected by the American Urological Association computer files. The survey asked about their pre-PBX protocol.
Approximately 63% (568 of 900) of the surveys were returned and showed considerable differences in pre-PBX protocol among those urologists. The pre-PBX regimen included prophylactic antibiotics in 98.6% and a cleansing rectal enema in 81%. Eleven different antibiotics were used, with 20 different doses and 23 different timing-duration regimens.
The pre-PBX preparation is not standardized among American urologists.
评估美国执业泌尿科医生在前列腺活检(PBX)患者准备方面的差异。
向美国泌尿外科学会计算机文件随机选取的900名美国执业泌尿科医生发送了一份调查问卷。该问卷询问了他们的PBX前方案。
约63%(900份中的568份)的调查问卷被收回,显示这些泌尿科医生在PBX前方案上存在显著差异。PBX前方案包括98.6%的预防性抗生素和81%的清洁直肠灌肠。使用了11种不同的抗生素,有20种不同的剂量和23种不同的给药时间-持续时间方案。
美国泌尿科医生在PBX前准备方面未标准化。
