Conditions studied: Prostatectomy, Prehabilitation, Telemedicine

In brief

The study titled " The effectiveness of telemedicine monitoring prehabilitation in prostate cancer patients undergoing radical prostatectomy " investigates the impact of a structured telemedicine-supported prehabilitation and rehabilitation program on reducing postoperative urinary incontinence in patients with localized prostate cancer. Radical prostatectomy, a common treatment for localized prostate cancer, is often associated with complications such as urinary incontinence, which significantly affects quality of life. This study aims to address this issue by enhancing patients' physical conditioning and adherence to pre- and postoperative rehabilitation through the use of wearable devices and remote physiotherapy consultations.
