Pelvic floor exercises for men • What men need to know ...
The following video covers some important information for those men awaiting a robotic radical prostatectomy for the management of localised prostate cancer. The video highlights the process that men can expect leading into their surgery and what can be expected after their operation. Prior to surgery men have work up that includes a visit to the pre-admission clinic as well as a stress echo. This assessment ensures that men have no heart issues before proceeding on with surgery. Men are admitted on the day of their operation with the majority spending one night in hospital only. All men are discharged with a catheter in placed which is removed after one week. A cystogram is performed prior to removal of the catheter. Once the catheter has been removed men need to start pelvic floor exercises again to regain full urinary control. For those men interested in sexual function a discussion regarding taking PDE5i will be had and these drugs started if wished. For those with additional questions please contact our office or leave a comment below.

That's a difficult one. I had my prostate removed in November 2021. In the UK you can check online to find the experience of the surgeon. Mine had done quite a few prostatectomy ops. The problem is if only very experienced surgeons perform these procedures then then eventually we will run out. I'm guessing there is adequate monitoring in the early stages.

Thanks Dr from ireland 🇮🇪. That was very informative. I'm not looking forward to 01/03/23. After 25 year's of chronic bacterial prostatitis it's finally being removed. The bit that scares me the most is the spinal anesthetic. That part gives me the shivers.

How can one know if your surgeon is extremely competent in operating the surgical robot? I am an engineer and I'm an expert on 3d CAD modeling. I have over 10,000 hours on CAD equipment and understand the nuances of the software that even the manufacturer was interested in. Only time and mileage gave me that competency. How can I know the competency of my surgeon and his time in the "cockpit" with these machines. I'm firmly convinced that the robotic interface is the way to go, but, the human operating the robot is the key to a successful surgery.......any help would be appreciated.

Great question. The truth is that it can be very difficult to know for sure. All you can do is ask your surgeon the volume of cases they do regularly, their total volume and their training. Hope this helps👌🏻
