Pelvic floor recovery after prostate cancer surgery
Part of Cancer, Kidney & urinary, Mental health, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study looks at how pelvic floor function and emotional well-being are affected at least one year after prostate removal surgery for prostate cancer. It aims to understand long-term outcomes to help improve care.

This study tests whether adding aerobic exercise (like walking or cycling) and relaxation to pelvic floor muscle training helps men recover bladder control and sexual function after prostate cancer surgery. You may be eligible if you had nerve-sparing robotic prostate removal in the last year and can do pelvic floor exercises.
This study tests if special exercises for the muscles that control urination (pelvic floor muscles) can help men who have had their prostate removed due to cancer to regain bladder control. It may help you if you are older than 40, did not have leaking urine before surgery, and have not had other major surgeries or health issues.
This study tests whether a personalized exercise and support program before and after robot-assisted prostate cancer surgery helps men recover better function and quality of life. You'll work with a team to prepare your body before surgery and rebuild strength afterward.
This study tests whether a smartphone app that teaches you about recovery before and after prostate cancer surgery helps prevent urinary leakage and erectile problems. You'd use the app to learn exercises and tips tailored to your recovery.
This study looks at factors that can predict whether prostate cancer will come back in the 10 years after robot-assisted prostate removal surgery, and how well bladder control (urinary continence) recovers. It helps doctors understand which patients might do better long-term.
This study tests whether a nurse-led education program and direct referral to a physiotherapist before prostate removal surgery can help reduce urine leakage (incontinence) after the operation. It may help you recover better bladder control.
