This study tests a program that combines exercise, nutrition, and mental preparation before and after prostate removal surgery. The goal is to help you recover faster and keep better urinary and sexual function.
This study tests whether doing pelvic floor muscle exercises (Kegel exercises) after prostate removal surgery helps improve bladder control and reduce urine leakage. If you're recovering from prostate surgery and didn't have leakage before, these exercises might help you regain continence faster.
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.
This trial tests a program to help men recover erectile function after prostate cancer treatment. It is for men with a specific type of prostate cancer that hasn't spread and who still have some erectile function.
