I zoomed in some parts so you could see the writing better. Let me know if you like that and I can continue to do it in future videos. If not let me know that too. :)
No I didn't it would be much better with a male Dr. Not a female nurse. Because a women wouldn't even be in the room with me. Oh it's a fun name. Oh it's only an hour with a giant thing in your junk
Had this procedure performed 10 days ago. Admissions at 9:45am, then to the surgical center for prep which included a thorough assessment of vitals and questions from nurses. Given three tylenol and another pill that I can't remember the name of; hooked up to the IV and then off to surgery. Given a spinal anesthetic which I think is preferred and sedation prior to the operation at 11:30am; wake up in recovery at 1:00 pm with catheter in place and continuous irrigation in place. Shuttled to the ward at 3 pm. Little discomfort really, no pain killers needed. Discharged two days post-op without a catheter once able to pass the pee test. :)
Hi. So today I went for a working interview at a Advanced Urology! I never worked urology and we are required to do Foley catheters. WOW! Thank you so much! Thank lease continue to help me with all your videos also I pray I get the job! I will know tomorrow. I am. Medical assistant and I worked in ENT
Just had this done. This is spot on. I was only in the hospital one day (Overnight) Not a lot of pain, I had to urinate with the catheter removed to go home.
@@musicbox99 Completely Obstructed. I think TURP is the best way to go, The other ways are less effective. I had a friend who had the eurolift he said it was painful for awhile.
@@sdgardner1954 hi ! I hope you are doing well. It's been 2 years, how are you feeling now after the surgery? People told me that urine obstruction happens after some years. That's why i am asking
Good lecture. A minor correction for you from a proudly nerdy engineer. It’s not an electrically charged wire, it’s a wire carrying an electric current (hot wire, like a toaster) that cuts and cauterises. You're welcome :)
Just had my TURP last week, was able to pee 200 ml normally next day around 10am. The later did 650 ml, dark red. Painful urination. 9 days later, much less pain, but still painful, and I think I have UTI. Went last 2 days and hardly any output, gained 6 pounds, of fluid. After started taking kflex ( 500 mg) every 6 hours, am able to pee. Going to do lab work tomorrow. I still have to pee every 1-2 hours, day and nite, resumed Eliquis, since bleeding has stopped. Just a long slow recovery, the painful urination was unexpected, but per my doctor, normal. Guess she forgot to tell me, but I would have still had the procedure done.
I’m going in for the turp procedure in a couple weeks, and very apprehensive about the pain of urination or complications from the surgery, but I’m tired of getting up 6 times a night to urinate and a major disruption of my sleep patterns. Thanks for an informative video.
I have never known someone who had a TURP that hasn't had major problems with it a few years down the road. I had Urolift,, that was ba enough, but I met an Urologist who also has the same problems and was coping with Cialis! Flomax wasn't mentioned but I had bad reactions to it. Cialis isn't covered by insurance!
I had my turp recently and it's been great...I piss well and a good amount and I can hold it with no discomfort for hours... And when I'm at the gym I don't feel that "I've gotta take a piss every five minutes feeling" is great... But... When I'm trying to shoot one into my girlfriend... Nothing's coming out... What's up with that... Because I don't recall my urologist, who was great, saying anything about not having any schlozz in the Canon... Any help on that? Great vid by they way. 👍
@@stevetop5970 ….I did look into it. My urologist measured my prostate. The doctors who would have performed the PAE said my prostate wasn’t large enough. As a result,I pee a little more often than a younger man, but life goes on. If my prostate continues to grow,I’ll look into it again…Good Luck to you!!
@@bobbender5858 Thanks I have too been looking into PAE. I have been in a bad way since we last spoke. I ended up not being able to pee and my kidneys were not draining down properly. The upshot of that was I have had to have a catheter put into my bladder, and it has to stay in place until I get an operation. I have been for a scan for PAE, but dont know if that will help me now, as my kidneys got damaged, so PAE might not be an option for me. Have to go back shortly when I get the results. For anyone reading this, if your kidneys dont drain down you will get a back flow of urine from your bladder into your kidneys, the pain is like being stabbed with a knife. DO NOT let it get to that stage, a catheter could save your life!
@@stevetop5970 ..Wow !! You have really been through it. Maybe you should just get the turp, and end the issue. Recovery should only be a couple of weeks and you can get your health back. I don’t remember, are you in the UK or in the states ?
@@bobbender5858 I am in the UK. Yes, I think it is probably the most sensible thing to do to get a turp, and be done with it. That said, the doctor said the turp might last 5 to 10 years, so at some point I would have to have it again. With the catheter in place I have to drink at least 2 litres of water a day, which is a lot of liquid for me.
Thanks for making this very informative video. My husband will undergo TURP procedure this coming July 4 and I would like to know if he would an adult nappy while recovering at home? Thanks in advance
Having done next week. Question for you. You mentioned the problems before surgery with urinating. You didn’t mention NOT being able to urinate at all at some point. I have been self catheter’ing for 6 months due to not being to urinate at all. Is that also one of the pre-surgery issues
Follow up to my TURP Surgery in June 20. So far it has not gone well. I have had terrible pain and continue bleeding, cannot urinate after 7 weeks, I am on anti-biotics for the next 30 days to try and stop infections that keep coming back. The bladder pain is horrible. I now wished I did not do a TURP surgery and chosen another method. Wearing a catheter for 20 days now. Miserable.
Good Day Mam, I had a concern about the age which is younger to be TURP. It is okay under go operation? For example my friend the age is 34 years old he had prostate enlargement since 27 years old, for now the symptoms is frequent even he take medicine..
I had a TURP 4 days ago. I was unable to void. I was sent home with a catheter and will have another void trial outpatient next week. Is there is a good chance I will void next week? Really nervous I will have this catheter forever. Thank you.
My husband said most embarrassing, humiliating thing he ever had done at the hands of the urologist who did not explain anything. All he said was going to ream you out. The scrub and other female thought they were funny and winked at me as they told him, "Don't worry, WE are going to get to know you real well". He said never again. No more medical procedures where exposed to opposite gender.
I can relate to your husband’s feelings, as I too feel uncomfortable having to be exposed to a female in that situation. When I had to have the catheter removed, I had to see a female nurse and was initially very uncomfortable about it. I said “Where’s the doctor?” and she said she was assigned the duty of removing the catheter. I asked her if she had done it before, and she said she had, and it turned out she was very capable and empathetic. She helped me expertly and professionally without any wisecracks, with little pain and lots of support. It’s a shame you had to have people who acted unprofessional in your situation. Just wanted to share that not all females are unprofessional like that, and they certainly would have deserved a reprimand.
Opposite gender? Who cares, get over it man. All that counts is we can pee. I am 81, had tons of female nurses and it did not bother me one bit. The important part is to be able to pee.
Why shouldn't a nurse explain it? If they work / have experience in urology then what's the issue? As to not letting a urology clinician near you, who may just happen to be a woman, well, you need to get over that one... Never have this done? If you can't pee and end up with a constantly full bladder, with urine backing-up in the kidneys leading to bi-lateral hydronephrosis, as happened to me, then you'll end-up with kidney failure and be on dialysis inside 12 months, as the urologist told me - then a TURP will save your life. Just sayin'...
“Stop smoking” before your op. Hahaha, it implies that smoking is the norm. Thankfully it is no longer “normal” to be a smoker at any age. It is idiotic (imho)

I had this done about a month ago, Glad I did cause they found out I had prostate cancer. I got it early!
Nice job. Just had the TURP procedure and your explanation was spot on. Total respect for the job nurses do.

As a semester 2 nursing student this video helped me alot thank you
I'm going in for a TURP very soon. But I must admit it does not sound pleasant. Good explanation of all that will or can happen. Thank you.
You are amazing. Thanks for your videos. You know how to teach and have been extremely helpful!!!
We are going to have this topic on our final so I sent this video to all my friends. Thanks Prof.

Thank you so much for all the videos you've shared🙏❤️
It's really helps me into my actuals..
Nice, very clear explanation
Thank you from the country of Iraq
this is so informative, needed this for medsurge presentation. Thankyou
Doesn't the wire loop have to puncture the wall of the urethra in order to reach the prostate tissue that surrounds it?
I had my turp recently and it's been great...I piss well and a good amount and I can hold it with no discomfort for hours... And when I'm at the gym I don't feel that "I've gotta take a piss every five minutes feeling" is great... But... When I'm trying to shoot one into my girlfriend... Nothing's coming out...

Bless your soul
Thank u .I got a good and precise explanation on your channel . Thanks again from ,💓
Thanks for the 💓from a nurse to THE NURSING PROF
WHY CANT I GET A ERECTION AFTER HAVING A TURP,MY BRAIN SAYS I WANT ONE BUT IT DOESNT HAPPEN
very informative, i had a extra lobe on top of my prostate, was removed still have burning ,and bladder pain ,after 4 weeks is this normal ,
Thank you - very informative.
Good Job!!!!
Do you carve out the euretha inside the prostate?
Great question. I hadn't considered that aspect.
I would like to hear what she has to say about aquablation.
You were looking at PAE, did you get any further with it?
@@stevetop5970 ….I did look into it. My urologist measured my prostate. The doctors who would have performed the PAE said my prostate wasn’t large enough.

Very good
Is the TURP procedure outdated?
Deas it involve a total destruction of urethrae??????????
Do you lose your internal and external sphincter with this procedure! Thank you
No
Thanks for making this very informative video. My husband will undergo TURP procedure this coming July 4 and I would like to know if he would an adult nappy while recovering at home? Thanks in advance
No that's usually not necessary

Oh no! Sorry you are going through that. It is not normal to have that sort of recovery.

It is more common for older men but that is going to be a conversion he has with his urologist.

Higher chances that you will void normally then need a catheter for longer than a short time
Thank you!
Just a comparison, our hospital does this as an outpatient procedure. No hospital stay! Nurse visit after 3 days to remove catheter.
Prostate Artery Embolization is not invasive, quick recovery and no ED and retrograde ejaculation.
Mais pas pour le lobe median
Your very helpful and cute as well.

@@ALKRANTZ my urologist is a lady. And a damn good urologist too!
Dr what happens if you have sex before six months
6 weeks not 6 months!
After TURP a man can be father . Details information about this.
