ABSTRACT
<p><b>Objective</b>To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of low-concentration hydrogen peroxide solution (HPS) for continuous bladder irrigation after transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP).</p><p><b>METHODS</b>We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data about 148 cases of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) treated by TURP from January 2013 to January 2016. Seventy-six of the patients received postoperative continuous bladder irrigation with 0.15% HPS (group A) and the other 72 with normal saline (group B). We compared the two groups of patients in their postoperative hemoglobin (Hb) levels, duration of bladder irrigation, frequency of catheter blockage, time of catheterization, and length of hospital stay.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>There were no statistically significant differences between the two groups of patients preoperatively in the prostate volume, International Prostate Symptoms Score, maximum urinary flow rate, postvoid residual urine, or levels of serum PSA and Hb (P > 0.05). At 48 hours after operation, a significantly less reduction was observed in the Hb level in group A than in group B ([3.38 ± 2.56] vs [7.29 ± 6.58] g/L, P < 0.01). The patients of group A, in comparison with those of group B, also showed remarkably shorter duration of postoperative bladder irrigation ([32.57 ± 5.99] vs [46.10 ± 8.79] h, P < 0.01), lower rate of catheter blockage (3.3% vs 11.8%, P < 0.01), shorter time of catheterization ([3.74 ± 0.79] vs [4.79 ± 0.93] d, P < 0.01), and fewer days of postoperative hospital stay ([4.22 ± 0.81] vs [4.67 ± 0.88] d, P < 0.01).</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>Low-concentration HPS for continuous bladder irrigation after TURP can reduce blood loss, catheter blockage, bladder irrigation duration, catheterization time, and hospital stay, and therefore deserves a wide clinical application.</p>
