Doctors' views on pain during flexible cystoscopy with local anesthetic
Part of Cancer, Kidney & urinary, Mental health, Pain, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial asks doctors to rate how much pain they think male patients feel during a minimally invasive bladder exam. It aims to see if doctors' estimates of pain are accurate.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are a man over 18 years old
- You need a cystoscopy (a thin, flexible camera inserted into the bladder) to check a urinary problem
- You can tolerate having this procedure done with local anesthetic (numbing gel)

This study looks at how age and sex affect the pain people expect and actually feel during their first flexible cystoscopy, a test where a thin tube is used to look inside the bladder. It helps researchers understand how to better prepare patients for the procedure.
This trial tests if using virtual reality (VR) during a cystoscopy (a procedure to look inside the bladder) can help reduce pain or anxiety. If you are having a rigid cystoscopy for the first time under local anesthesia, you may be able to participate.
This trial tests different ways to manage pain during and after urologic surgery to help you recover faster and with less discomfort. It compares several pain relief methods, such as epidural blocks and IV pain pumps, to find what works best.
This study tests two simple methods to make your cystoscopy or bladder instillation more comfortable and less stressful. You may be randomly assigned to get extra numbing gel, soothing music, or both, so the team can see what works best.
This study tests a device that measures pain signals during urology procedures like cystoscopy or prostate biopsy. It may help doctors give you the right amount of sedation.
