HoLEP clinical trials at UCSF
1 research study open to eligible people
HoLEP is a laser operation to remove enlarged prostate tissue. UCSF is testing whether showing a discharge video affects post-surgery healthcare use. The trial is randomized and records clinic visits and phone calls.
Educational Discharge Video Impact on Post-Operative Healthcare Utilization After HoLEP
open to eligible males ages 18 years and up
This will be a randomized interventional study. Patients scheduled to undergo a HoLEP at UCSF will be randomized into two groups after the procedure: one group will watch a scripted educational HoLEP video and the other group will not receive a video. We will monitor the post-operative care utilization after discharge. Secondary outcomes will include patient satisfaction.
