Condition: Prostate Biopsy · Post Biopsy Bleeding · Transrectal Ultrasound-guided Prostate Biopsy · Sponsor: Veterans Health Service Medical Center, Seoul, Korea
Hematuria (up to 50%) and rectal bleeding (up to 30%) are common complications following transrectal ultrasound-guided prostate biopsy. Although most cases are mild, some require additional intervention. Short-duration compression has been shown to achieve hemostasis in cases of post-biopsy bleeding, suggesting that routine probe compression may reduce bleeding complications. Post-biopsy bleeding may also be associated with an increased risk of subsequent infection. This randomized controlled trial aims to evaluate the effect of routine probe compression and compression duration after transrectal prostate biopsy on bleeding and infectious complications.
