Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify relationship of urinary symptom, urinary discomfort and quality of life among the bladder cancer patients and benign prostate hypertrophy patients, and to contribute health promotion of such patients and nursing intervention development based on this results. Method: Study sample recruited bladder cancer patents(n=49) and benign prostate hypertrophy patients who admitted Seoul National University Hospital from June, 2002 to June, 2003. Both group patients were operated, and prostate hypertrophy patients group (mean 67.8 years old) were older than bladder cancer patients group(60.82 years old). Instruments was composed of general characteristics, urinary symptom scale(19 items), urinary discomfort scale(19 items) and quality of life scale(21 items). Data was analysed SPSS PC + 10. using mean, standard deviation, pearson correlation coefficient. Result as follows: 1. There was a statistically significant difference in occupation between two groups (p=.027). Hypertrophy patients group's age was more older than bladder cancer patients group. 2. The prostate hypertrophy patients group had the significantly higher score in urinary symptom (p=000) and nighttime urination frequency. However, there was no significant difference in incontinence symptoms and the symptoms associated bladder cancer between two groups. 3. The prostate hypertrophy patients group had significantly higher score in urinary discomfort (p=000) than the bladder cancer patients group. However, there was no significant difference incontinence discomfort and the discomfort associated bladder cancer between two groups. 4. The prostate hypertrophy patients group suffered more urinary discomfort than the bladder cancer patients group did. The quality of life the prostate hypertrophy patients group was lower than the quality of life the bladder cancer patients group. Quality of life was no statistically significant difference between two groups (p=000). 5. There was a positive correlation between urinary symptoms and urinary discomfort. However, there was a negative correlation between the quality of life and urination symptoms and discomfort. Conclusions: The prostate hypertrophy patients group had significantly higher score in urinary symptom and urinary discomfort (p=000) than the bladder cancer patients group. The quality of life the prostate hypertrophy patients group was lower than the quality of life the bladder cancer patients group. This means that urinary symptom and urinary discomfort in prostate hypertrophy patient group is more important problem. So, prostate hypertrophy patient group need to control the symptom. Therefore, nurses will be provide the intervention program to improve the bladder function after prostate hypertrophy surgery.

Objective: This study evaluates the effectiveness and safety of moxibustion for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). Methods: Using the keywords "benign prostatic hyperplasia", "benign prostatic hypertrophy", "benign prostatic enlargement", "prostatic hyperplasia", and "moxibustion", we searched papers in numerous databases, including National Discovery for Science Leaders (NDSL), Korean Traditional Knowledge Portal (KTKP), Oriental Medicine Advanced Searching Integrated System (OASIS), Research Information Sharing Service (RISS), PubMed, Embase, and CENTRAL. The search range included randomized controlled trials (RCTs). Papers not matched with inclusion criteria were excluded. The methodological quality of each RCT was assessed using the Cochrane risk-of-bias tool. Where appropriate, meta-analyses were performed. Results: Initially, 77 studies were found. Of these, 11 duplicate studies were removed and 27 were excluded following title and abstract screening. After the remaining 39 papers were scanned, 13 RCTs were selected and analyzed. Among these 13 RCTs, five compared moxibustion therapy and oral medication, seven compared moxibustion plus acupuncture therapy and oral medication, and one compared moxibustion plus acupuncture therapy and sham-moxibustion. The meta-analysis showed positive results for the use of moxibustion therapy in terms of International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS), Quality Of Life (QOL), Maximum Flow Rate (Qmax), Prostate Volume (PV), and the efficacy rate. The meta-analysis showed positive results for the use of moxibustion plus acupuncture therapy in terms of IPSS, QOL, and the efficacy rate. Conclusions: This meta-analysis of clinical trials suggests that moxibustion is effective intreating BPH patients. The results of this study could be applied to clinical treatment of BPH. However, additional large-scale clinical researches should be conducted.

Objectives: The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of Heat-sensitive Moxibustion on Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia Methods: We searched articles from Academic Journals(CAJ) online databases, Oriental Medicine Advanced Searching Integrated System (OASIS), Searching key words were '前列腺增生', '熱敏灸' and '열민구', '전립선비대'. The search range included randomized controlled trials (RCTs). Among the articles published to 2020, 10 articles were found. After review the title, abstract and original, 3 articles were selected finally to rule out treatment combined with completely different treatments. Result: The Heat-sensitive moxibustion at acupoints in the treatment of Benign prostatic hyperplasia were significantly superior to control group after treatment in the symptoms of patients, IPSS, QOL, PVR and Qmax(P<0.05). The Heat-sensitive moxibustion can significantly reduce the incidence of temporary urinary incontinence after Transurethral resection of the prostate(TURP) and improve life quality and satisfaction of patients(P<0.05). The individualized desensitization saturated time and amount of Heat-sensitive moxibustion is superior effective to general amount and time of traditional moxibustion in the total effective rate, IPSS, Ru and Qmax(P<0.01) for Benign prostatic hyperplasia. Conclusion: Heat sensitive moxibustion directly transfer heat to the source of a disease. So it can be considered as a good treatment for Benign prostate hypertrophy. It was also shown a better effect on BPH compared to traditional moxibustion, According to the thermo principles of tumor, if the tumor cell's death temperature of 43℃ is reached, that can cause tumor degeneration. Therefore I think Heat sensitive moxibustion can be applied to various tumor disease. The results of this study could be applied to clinical treatment of BPH. However, additional large-scale clinical researches should be conducted.

외요도구를 통한 Foley catheter의 유치는 거의 대부분의 경뇨도적 내시경 수술 후 필수적으로 행하는 술기이다. 그러나 가끔, 특히 심한 요도손상을 입힌 경우나 요도에 false tract가 생긴 때에는 통상의 방법으로 Foley catheter의 외요도구를 통한 방광내로의 유치가 곤란하며 또한 심한 손상을 초래할 위험이 많다. 저자는 guide wire를 이용한 새롭고 안전한 요도 catheter의 유치방법을 고안하여 1986년 9월부터 1988년 6월 까지 요도협착으로 입원하여 internal urethrotomy를 받은 후 Foley catheter의 유치가 곤란하였던 7명의 환자 및 경뇨도전립선절제술후 Foley catheter의 삽입이 곤란하였던 3명의 환자에게 각각 시행하여 전례에서 성공하였다.

Background: Postoperative bleeding is a common complication in transurethral resection of prostate (TURP). Some patients become restless and combative after operation, particularly when in pain, producing bleeding from the prostatic bed. So many patients may be necessary to pain control for reduce bleeding. The purpose of this study is to compare recently used two Methods for post-operative analgesia. Methods: We studied 40 patients, ASA physical staus 1, 2, undergone TURP under general anesthesia. The patients divided into two groups: continuous epidural pain control group (I, n=20) received an epidural bolus of morphine 2 mg and 1% lidocaine 10 ml followed by a epidural 0.08% bupivacaine 40 ml and morphine 4.5 mg (basal infusion rate 0.5 ml/hr), intravenous patient-controlled analgesia (IV-PCA) group (II, n=20) received an intravenous bolus of fentanyl $50\sim100{\mu}g$ followed by a IV-PCA morphine 30 mg, ketorolac 180 mg and droperdol 2.5 mg (basal infusion rate 0.5 ml/hr, bolus 0.5 ml, lock-out interval 15 min). This study conducted the analgesic efficacy, side effect and patient's satisfaction for 1 day after TURP. Results: Continuous epidural pain control group had more significant analgesia than IV-PCA at postoperative 30, 60 min, but no significant difference was observed later in both group. Nausea and pruritus were scantly developed in both group but the incidence was no significant differeance. Patients responded good satisfaction over 70% in both group. Conclusions: Postoperative continuous epidural pain block and IV-PCA are both effective Methods of postoperative pain control with lower incidence of side effects.

Purpose: This study was to investigate the factors affecting health-related quality of life in Benign Prostatic Hypertrophy(BPH) Patients. Method: Data was collected on 259 outpatients who were receiving ambulatory treatment after having been diagnosed with BPH. The measurement tool for the quality of life was developed by Epstein and Deverka(1992) and adapted by Kim Yeong-hye(1997). Data was analyzed with the number, percentage, and the mean and multiple regression, by using the SPSS 12.0 program. Result: The mean quality of life in the sexual-life domain respectively. Factors affecting the quality of life in BPH patients were the symptom of BPH(51.4%), the perceived health state(3.6%), and self-efficacy (1.6%). These three factors described 56.6% of quality of life. Conclusion: It's necessary to have an intervention plan that can enhance the most influential disease-symptom management in a patient, and self-efficacy when planning a nursing education program aiming to promote quality of life in BPH patients.
