Multicentral Preventive Antibiotics With Cystectomy Within Enhanced Recovery After Surgery

Category Primary study
Registry of Trialsclinicaltrials.gov
Year 2022
The current usage of antibiotic prophylaxis (AP) in radical cystectomy (RC) is aimed to reducing the incidence of surgical site infections and incidence of unnecessary prescribing of antibiotics. There are a huge number of different AP protocols according to Urological Associations. However, there is no convincing evidence to support variations and duration of AP which requires a randomized clinical trial on AP when performing variants of RC with uroderivation. Research hypothesis: The use of prolonged antibiotic prophylaxis (5 days), depending on the glomerular filtration rate, does not affect the incidence of postoperative complications.
