Evaluating the efficacy of transrectal povidone-iodine application for infection prevention in transrectal ultrasound-guided prostate biopsy: A single-center retrospective study.
Introduction: Prostate cancer diagnosis via transrectal ultrasound-guided (TRUS) biopsy carries a significant risk of infectious complications due to potential contamination from the rectal microbiome. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of transrectal 10% povidone-iodine application, in combination with antibiotic prophylaxis, in reducing infectious complications following TRUS biopsy.
Materials and methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on 643 patients who underwent TRUS biopsy at a single center in a tertiary hospital in Kuala Lumpur between January 2017 and December 2023. Patient records were reviewed for demographic data, biopsy indications, type of antibiotic prophylaxis, and post-biopsy complications. Patients were categorized into two groups: those who received antibiotic prophylaxis alone and those who received both antibiotic prophylaxis and transrectal povidone-iodine. Statistical analyses, including chi-square tests and logistic regression, were performed to compare outcomes and assess the impact of povidone-iodine on infection rates.
Results: Of the 643 patients, 285 received antibiotic prophylaxis combined with transrectal povidone-iodine, was associated with a significantly lower infection rate from 2.23% to 0.7% (P < 0.05). There were no significant differences between the povidone-iodine and non- povidone-iodine groups in terms of patient demographics, including age, prostate volume, Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) levels, and histopathological findings. Logistic regression analysis further confirmed the significant effect of povidone-iodine in reducing post-biopsy infections presenting as fever >37.5 within 30 days after TRUS biopsy.
Conclusion: The results indicate that the use of transrectal 10% povidone-iodine alongside antibiotic prophylaxis is an effective approach for reducing infectious complications following TRUS biopsy.
期刊介绍:
Published since 1890 this journal originated as the Journal of the Straits Medical Association. With the formation of the Malaysian Medical Association (MMA), the Journal became the official organ, supervised by an editorial board. Some of the early Hon. Editors were Mr. H.M. McGladdery (1960 - 1964), Dr. A.A. Sandosham (1965 - 1977), Prof. Paul C.Y. Chen (1977 - 1987). It is a scientific journal, published quarterly and can be found in medical libraries in many parts of the world. The Journal also enjoys the status of being listed in the Index Medicus, the internationally accepted reference index of medical journals. The editorial columns often reflect the Association''s views and attitudes towards medical problems in the country. The MJM aims to be a peer reviewed scientific journal of the highest quality. We want to ensure that whatever data is published is true and any opinion expressed important to medical science. We believe being Malaysian is our unique niche; our priority will be for scientific knowledge about diseases found in Malaysia and for the practice of medicine in Malaysia. The MJM will archive knowledge about the changing pattern of human diseases and our endeavours to overcome them. It will also document how medicine develops as a profession in the nation. We will communicate and co-operate with other scientific journals in Malaysia. We seek articles that are of educational value to doctors. We will consider all unsolicited articles submitted to the journal and will commission distinguished Malaysians to write relevant review articles. We want to help doctors make better decisions and be good at judging the value of scientific data. We want to help doctors write better, to be articulate and precise.
