First seen Feb 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 20, 2026 · Updated 11 times
Summary
This trial tests whether a structured nurse-led education session before prostate cancer surgery, plus a direct referral to pelvic floor physiotherapy, can reduce urine leakage afterward. Eighty men scheduled for prostate removal will be randomly assigned to either standard care or the new program. The main goal is to see if they use fewer pads at 3 months after surgery.

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to
If it works, this could provide a simple, low-cost way to help men regain bladder control faster after prostate surgery.
What could go wrong
This is a small, single-center trial with only 80 participants, so results may not apply to all hospitals. The intervention is behavioral, so success depends on patient engagement.
