Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Occurrence of infectious complications, which include genitourinary infection (symptoms of fever, chills and dysuria) with or without fever and asymptomatic bacteriuria, evaluated after the patients' return visit, in the medical record, and urine culture performed 10 days after the biopsy procedure, in each group, through the relative and absolute frequency of the occurrence. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) level was obtained from the patients' medical records through the relative and absolute rate in each group. The PSA levels found were mostly between 4-10 nanograms per milliliter (ng/ml) (64.3%). Levels below 4 ng/ml and above 10 ng/ml represent 18.3% of the sample and 17.4%, respectively. ;Previous use of a urinary catheter was evaluated in the patients' medical records, through the absolute and relative frequency, representing 1.7% of the patients. ;Uroculture and bacterial resistance 10 days after biopsy in patients who had symptoms of infectious complications, was evaluated in medical records using absolute and relative frequency. Only 1.7% of patients had positive urine culture and bacterial resistance in both cases.;The use of antibiotics in the last three months was evaluated in the patients' medical records through the absolute and relative frequency, corresponding to 2.6% of the patients. ;The personal history of Diabetes Melitus was evaluated in the patients' medical records through the relative and absolute frequency in each group. In all, 13% of patients had diabetes. ;The result of the anatomopathological study of the participants' prostate biopsies was evaluated in the medical record using absolute and relative frequency. Regarding the results of biopsies, most participants were diagnosed with adenocarcinoma (52.2%) followed by benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) (44.3%), followed by atypical proliferation of small acids (7%) and prostatitis ( 1.7%). | — |
