Evaluation of the effectiveness of personalized complex therapy in patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia and chronic prostatitis

Abstract

PURPOSE OF THE STUDY: to evaluate the effectiveness of personalized complex treatment of patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) in combination with chronic prostatitis using a combined physiotherapeutic effect, taking into account the individual chronobiological characteristics of patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We examined 60 patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia and chronic prostatitis who were sent to the TUR of the prostate. Patients were divided into two groups (n = 30). The comparison group (CG) was treated with alpha-blockers and fluoroquinolones for 28 days. In the main group (MG) personalized complex therapy. The effectiveness of treatment was evaluated at the time of treatment (visit 1), two weeks later (visit 2) and 4 weeks later (visit 3). The severity of lower urinary tract symptoms, prostate volume and residual urine volume, hemodynamic parameters in the gland were evaluated, and a bacterioscopic and bacteriological examination of prostate secretion was performed. RESULTS: At the end of 4 weeks of therapy, statistically significant differences (p 0.05) were found in the MG for all the studied parameters. In the bacteriological study of prostate secretions at visit 1 Escherichia coli prevailed in the crops. At visit 2 to the CG bacteria were detected in 11 (36.7%) crops, and in 10 (33.3%) patients in the MG. At visit 3, no microbial growth was detected in both groups based on the results of a bacteriological examination of prostate secretions. Initially, both groups had low hemodynamic parameters in the prostate. After the treatment, a more pronounced dynamics of improvement of blood flow in the gland by visit 2 was noted in the MG than in the GP. By visit 3, statistically significant differences were found in all the studied indicators (p 0.05). CONCLUSION: Thus, according to the results, a personalized comprehensive treatment of patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia and chronic prostatitis reduced the severity of lower urinary tract symptoms and manifestations of the inflammatory process in the prostate, improved hemodynamic parameters and increase of efficiency of antibacterial therapy, as evidenced by the results of bacteriological studies.
