Some early cancers may have signs and symptoms that can be noticed, but that is not always the case. ● Can Prostate Cancer Be Found Early? ● Screening Tests for Prostate Cancer ● American Cancer Society Recommendations for Prostate Cancer Early Detection ● Insurance Coverage for Prostate Cancer Screening Diagnosis and Planning Treatment After a cancer diagnosis, staging provides important information about the extent of cancer in the body and anticipated response to treatment. ● Signs and Symptoms of Prostate Cancer ● Tests to Diagnose and Stage Prostate Cancer ● Prostate Pathology ● Prostate Cancer Stages and Other Ways to Assess Risk ● Survival Rates for Prostate Cancer ● Questions To Ask About Prostate Cancer 1 ____________________________________________________________________________________American Cancer Society cancer.org | 1.800.227.2345 Can Prostate Cancer Be Found Early? Screening is testing to find cancer in people before they have symptoms. For some types of cancer, screening can help find cancers at an early stage, when they are likely to be easier to treat. Prostate cancer can often be found early by testing for prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels in a man’s blood. Another way to find prostate cancer is the digital rectal exam (DRE). For a DRE, the doctor puts a gloved, lubricated finger into the rectum to feel the prostate gland. These tests and the actual process of screening are described in more detail in Screening Tests for Prostate Cancer. If the results of either of these tests is abnormal, further testing (such as a prostate biopsy) is often done to see if a man has cancer.

Vis Introduction The European Association of Urology Nurses The European Association of Urology Nurses (EAUN) was established in April 2000 to represent the interests of European urological nurses. The EAUN’s underlying goal is to foster the highest standards of urological nursing care throughout Europe. With administrative, financial and advisory support from the European Association of Urology (EAU), the EAUN also encourages research and aspires to develop European standards for education and accreditation of urology nurses. Improving current standards of urological nursing care has been top of the agenda, with the aim of directly helping our members develop or update their expertise. To fulfil this essential goal, we are publishing the latest addition to our Evidence-based Guidelines for Best Practice in Health Care series, a comprehensive compilation of theoretical knowledge and practical guidelines on Transrectal Ultrasound Guided Prostate Biopsy (TRUS Biopsy). Many thousands of prostate biopsies are undertaken in each country throughout Europe and the rest of the world each year.

  • Efficacy of Intrarectal Lidocaine Hydrochloride Gel for Pain Control in Patients Undergoing Transrectal Prostate Biopsy
    Clinical Urology LIDOCAINE GEL IN TRANSRECTAL PROSTATE BIOPSY International Braz J Urol Vol. 30 (5): 380-383, September - October, 2004 Official Journal of the Brazilian Society of Urology EFFICACY OF INTRARECTAL LIDOCAINE HYDROCHLORIDE GEL FOR PAIN CONTROL IN PATIENTS UNDERGOING TRANSRECTAL PROSTATE BIOPSY ALBERTO A. ANTUNES, ADRIANO A. CALADO, MARCELO C. LIMA, EVANDRO FALCÃO Service of Urology, Getúlio Vargas Hospital, Recife, Pernambuco, Brazil ABSTRACT Objective: To determine the efficacy of intrarectal lidocaine hydrochloride gel in reducing pain in patients undergoing transrectal prostate biopsy. Materials and Methods: During the period from June to November 2002, 72 patients under- going transrectal prostate biopsy at an outpatient service were prospectively randomized. Patients were divided into 2 groups. In group 1, 20 mL of 2% lidocaine gel were administered by intrarectal route 15 minutes before biopsy. In group 2 (placebo), 20 mL of ultrasound gel were administered under the same conditions. At the end of the procedure, patients were asked to classify the discomfort degree observed during the procedure through a verbal pain scale. Statistical analysis was performed through qui-square test. Results: The majority of patients in both groups presented slight pain on the examination, and 26 patients (76.4%) from group 1, and 26 (68.3%) patients from group 2 reported slight pain or no pain at all (p > 0.05). Moderate or intense pain was felt by 23.4% of patients in group 1 and 31.5% of patients in group 2 (p > 0.05). Conclusions: We concluded that lidocaine probably exerts a minimal effect on patients’ tol- erance to pain on transrectal prostate biopsy.
