“…Although the severity of urinary incontinence often decreases with time after RP [6][7][8], previous studies have demonstrated that 8% to 87% of patients still experience urinary incontinence at six months and 5% to 44.5% remain incontinent at one to two years after surgery [7][8][9][10][11][12]. Moreover, up to 50% of patients report some degree of incontinence two years after RP [3], even after pelvic fl oor muscle exercise intervention.…”

“…MAPS adopted this regimen for the intervention supported by evidence from four previously documented trials, which found it to be convenient, acceptable and comfortable for patients. 24,[50][51][52] It was believed that men needed to be able to tighten their pelvic floor muscles in a number of positions, so that they could recruit them speedily during coughing and sneezing.…”

“…The value of psychological support for men following radical prostatectomy has been stressed in the literature, 52 as has the intrinsic value of therapist contact in order to maintain patient motivation. 64 Within MAPS, therefore, a schedule of four appointments (at baseline, 2 weeks, 6 weeks and 12 weeks) was considered sufficient to monitor postsurgical muscle strength development and maintain motivation but not be too burdensome on patients or costly in terms of resources (chiefly therapist time).…”

HTA NIHR Health Technology Assessment programmeThe Health Technology Assessment (HTA) programme, part of the National Institute for Health Research (NIHR), was set up in 1993. It produces high-quality research information on the effectiveness, costs and broader impact of health technologies for those who use, manage and provide care in the NHS. 'Health technologies' are broadly defined as all interventions used to promote health, prevent and treat disease, and improve rehabilitation and long-term care. The research findings from the HTA programme directly influence decision-making bodies such as the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) and the National Screening Committee (NSC). HTA findings also help to improve the quality of clinical practice in the NHS indirectly in that they form a key component of the 'National Knowledge Service' . The HTA programme is needs led in that it fills gaps in the evidence needed by the NHS. There are three routes to the start of projects. First is the commissioned route.

Purpose: To evaluate preoperative rectal electrical stimulation in the recovery of urinary continence in patients who undergo radical retropubic prostatectomy. Materials and Methods: Patients were divided into 3 randomized groups: control, pelvic exercises, and electrical stimulation. A 1 hour pad-test, the ICIQ-SF, and the SF-36 were performed 1, 3, and 6 months after the surgical procedure. Results: Of the 58 patients who were initially included in the study, 9 were excluded due to radiotherapy after surgical intervention, an indwelling urethral catheter for more than 30 days, high surgical risk, loss of follow-up, or incomplete participation in the study routines and spontaneous interruption. Forty-nine patients concluded the study (15 in the control group, 17 in the exercise group, and 17 in the electrical stimulation group). We did not observe any significant difference in the pad test (p > 0.05), the 8 domains of the SF-36, or ICIQ-SF score compared with control groups (control, exercise, and electrical stimulation). Conclusion: Preoperative rectal electrical stimulation has no impact on continence status in patients who undergo radical retropubic prostatectomy. There is no difference in the three above mentioned groups with regard to urinary leakage and quality of life.
