چکیده
Several reports show increasing incidence of bacterial resistance in patients with sepsis after TRUSguided biopsy.1-3 Preprocedure screening of high-risk patients using cultures from rectal swabs would allow targeted prophylaxis.4,5 We performed a retrospective audit of all men undergoing a TRUS-guided prostate biopsy by one of nine urologists in Newcastle, New South Wales, to assess the incidence of bacteraemia and changes in antimicrobial susceptibility.

OBJECTIVE To determine the rate of hospital re-admission for sepsis after transperineal (TP) biopsy using both local data and worldwide literature, as there is growing interest in TP biopsy as an alternative to transrectal ultrasonography (TRUS)-guided biopsy for patients undergoing repeat prostate biopsy. PATIENTS AND METHODS Pooled prospective databases on TP biopsy from multiple centres in...

PURPOSE To assess the prevalence of fluoroquinolone resistance among patients undergoing transrectal ultrasound (TRUS)-guided prostate biopsy and the impact of rectal swab culture-directed antibiotic prophylaxis on postbiopsy infectious complications. MATERIALS AND METHODS We prospectively analyzed all patients undergoing TRUS-guided prostate biopsy from April 2013 to February 2015. Antibioti...
متن کاملThe comparison of the influence between two different bowel preparation methods on sepsis after prostate biopsies
INTRODUCTION Transrectal ultrasonography (TRUS) guided prostate needle biopsy has been performed to diagnose and stage prostate cancer for many years. There are many different bowel preparation protocols to diminish the infectious complications, but there is no standardized consensus among urologists. Therefore, we aimed to assess two different bowel preparation methods on the rate of infectiou...
متن کاملRisk factors for infection following prostate biopsy - a case control study
BACKGROUND Infection is a complication of TRUS prostate biopsy, despite the use of antimicrobial prophylaxis. Worryingly the rate of infectious complications following TRUS biopsy has been shown to be increasing. We aimed to determine the rate, severity, risk factors, standard patterns of care and microbiology resistance profiles associated with TRUS biopsy sepsis. METHODS A retrospective cas...
