Physicians' Perception About Patient Pain in Flexible Cystoscopy With Local Anesthesia
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 27 Apr 2025 · Not updated for over 12 months - ask the site whether it is still open
Brief summary (registry, in English)
Cystoscopy with local anesthesia is commonly performed for the follow-up of bladder cancer, evaluation of hematuria, assessment of urethral strictures, and examination of the lower urinary tract. While some patients tolerate the procedure comfortably, others may exhibit heightened sensitivity and difficulty tolerating it. In certain cases, even when the procedure is completed, the level of pain experienced and the resistance demonstrated by the patient may render cystoscopy a challenging experience for both the patient and the physician. The physician's perception of the patient's pain may differ from the pain reported by the patient. Currently, there is no available data in the literature regarding the relationship between pre-procedural anxiety and depression levels and the pain experienced during cystoscopy, nor regarding the physician's perception of that pain. The primary objective of the study is to compare the patient-reported pain score with the physician's perception of the pain experienced by the patient. A secondary objective is to evaluate the pre-procedure anxiety and depression scores, along with intra-procedural pain scores, in patients undergoing flexible cystoscopy under local anesthesia.
