Video after prostate surgery may cut unnecessary hospital calls
NCT ID NCT06975033
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether watching a short educational video after HoLEP prostate surgery helps patients manage their recovery at home and reduces the need to call or visit the doctor. About 114 adults having the procedure will be randomly assigned to either watch the video or not. Researchers will track how often each group uses healthcare services after discharge and measure patient satisfaction.
