Trial Title: Core Stability as a Prognostic Factor of Urinary Incontinence in Patients Undergoing Robot-assisted Laparoscopic Prostatectomy

NCT ID: NCT05893394

Condition: Prostate Cancer

Conditions: Official terms:
Urinary Incontinence

Study type: Observational [Patient Registry]

Overall status: Recruiting

Study design:

Time perspective: Prospective

Summary: The study aims at investigating the possible correlation between core stability muscles and urinary incontinence following Robot-Assisted Laparoscopic Prostatectomy. Sixty-two patients who are candidates for Robot-Assisted Laparoscopic Prostatectomy will be enrolled. All participants will be asked to be evaluated in their core stability functionality 30-40 days before Robot-Assisted Laparoscopic Prostatectomy intervention. The core stability functionality result will be correlated with the urinary incontinence 45-50 days after intervention.

Detailed description: The study aims at investigating the correlation between core stability muscles and urinary incontinence following Robot-Assisted Laparoscopic Prostatectomy. All sixty-two participants will be asked to be evaluated in their core stability functionality 30-40 days before Robot-Assisted Laparoscopic Prostatectomy intervention. Core stability functionality will be evaluated through the Loumajoki Battery of tests, composed of 10 simple items in which the patients have to maintain core stability. In addition a Quality of Life questionnaire (WHO Quality of Life-BREF) will be administered. The core stability functionality result will be correlated with urinary incontinence measured by the 24h PAD test 45-50 days after intervention. At this point core stability will be evaluated again as done before.
