  5. 19. Reducing the morbidity of transurethral resection of the prostate based on patient selection, fluid absorption, and blood loss

    Författare :Lars Sandfeldt; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Absorption; blood loss; surgical; cardiovascular disease; electrocardiography; ethanol; finasteride; glycine; hemodynamics; intracranial pressure; mannitol; myocardium; personality; prostatectomy; prostatic hyperplasia; risk factors; ~urethral resection of prostate; ultrasonography; urodynamics.;

    Sammanfattning : A higher long-term mortality due to myocardial infarction after TURP, compared to open surgery, irrigating fluid absorption and blood loss, prompted this investigation of whether prostate size has any correlation with cardiovascular risk factors, whether two common fluids differ in terms of harmful effects, and whether premedication with finasteride may reduce the blood loss during TURP. Paper I; Fifty-two patients were studied before the treatment of their bladder outlet obstruction. LÄS MER
