Novel Approach for XXXX Control in @entity1 Undergoing Prostate Biopsy: Iliohypogastric Nerve Block with or without Topical Application of @entity5403 - @entity3303 : A Randomized Controlled Trial.

@entity1 @entity5403 @entity3303 @entity158 @entity616
PURPOSE: To investigate the efficacy of a novel anesthetic technique called @entity616 ( @entity616 ) for @entity158 control in @entity1 undergoing prostate biopsy. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of 59 consecutive @entity1 who underwent transrectal ultrasound guided prostates biopsies were included in the study. @entity1 were randomized into four groups: (1) control, no method of anesthesia was administered, (2) intrarectal @entity5403 - @entity3303 cream application, (3) @entity616 and (4) @entity616 + intrarectal @entity5403 - @entity3303 cream application (combined group). @entity1 were asked to use a scale of 0-10 in a Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) questionnaire about @entity158 during probe insertion (VAS 1) and prostate biopsy (VAS 2). RESULTS: The mean VAS 1 and VAS 2 scores were 0.7 and 4.9 for controls, 0.5 and 1.8 for @entity616 , 0.5 and 2.6 for the intrarectal cream group, and 0.4 and 1.8 for the combined group. The mean VAS 1 scores were not different between groups. However, the mean VAS 2 scores were significantly lower in @entity616 , @entity5403 - @entity3303 cream and combined groups compared to the control group (P < .001). In addition, the @entity616 group had significantly lower VAS 2 scores compared to the cream application group (P = .03). On the other hand, there was no difference between the @entity616 and combined groups (P = .8). CONCLUSION: Any form of anesthesia was superior to none. However, @entity616 alone seemed to be superior to @entity5403 - @entity3303 cream application in @entity1 undergoing prostate biopsy. Addition of @entity5403 - @entity3303 cream application to @entity616 may not provide better analgesia._
