Conventional Fluid Management Versus Plethysmography Variability Index-based Goal-directed Fluid Management in Patients Undergoing Transurethral Resection of the Prostate

Transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) is a widely performed surgical procedure for the management of benign prostatic hyperplasia. Because of the constant and frequently undetectable fluid exchange through the open prostatic venous sinuses, it is difficult to determine the precise amount of irrigating fluid absorbed after TURP surgery. Unpredictable intravascular volume changes may result from this. While over-resuscitation raises the risk of fluid overload, pulmonary edema, and cardiac events, under-resuscitation in older individuals can lead to hypotension and decreased organ perfusion. Fluid management in TURP has always depended on traditional techniques that employ clinical evaluations like blood pressure and heart rate monitoring or fixed-volume infusion procedures. By using advanced technologies, goal-directed fluid therapy (GDFT) methods continually monitor and evaluate a patient's physiological status in real time, modifying fluid dosage as necessary. A dynamic method for determining volume status, the plethysmography variability index (PVI) has been studied in numerous clinical settings and has proven reliable in predicting fluid responsiveness and acting as a fluid resuscitation guide

Bipolar Resection vs Enucleation of Prostate

The aim of this study is to evaluate efficacy and safety of transurethral resection of the prostate and bipolar enucleation of the prostate.
