In this week's episode of the Medical Nursing Podcast, we're chatting all about prostatic disease!  Prostatic disease is a common cause of stranguria, haematuria and even recurrent UTIs, especially in older male dogs, especially entire males.  And there are many nursing skills we can use in the diagnosis and treatment of prostatic disease. Today, we'll look at them all, what prostatic diseases we see, and the nursing care these patients benefit from. ---

Urologist Mark Harris and interventional radiologist Tim Bryant discuss treating benign prostatic hyperplasia using PAE with editor Toby Page.

In this episode, host Dr. Michael Barraza interviews interventional radiologist Dr. Samdeep Mouli about controversies in prostate artery embolization, including technique, durability, and how we can leverage the data to unite IRs and establish PAE as standard of care. --- CHECK OUT OUR SPONSOR Boston Scientific Embold Fibered Coils https://www.bostonscientific.com/en-US/products/embolization/embold-detachable-coil-system.html --- SHOW NOTES Dr. Mouli discusses his role as director of translational research in interventional radiology at Northwestern. He reviews the most recent major data on PAE. There have been two major papers, one from a Portuguese group and another from a Brazilian group. The take home points from these papers are regarding the durability of symptoms and the safety profile of PAE. The biggest positive of PAE is that it is the safest among all minimally invasive surgeries. Dr. Mouli argues that PAE should be pursued as first line treatment for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) with lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTs). Another upside of PAE is that it doesn't prevent patients from undergoing any other medical or surgical intervention in the future. One of the barriers to PAE becoming first line therapy is that there is currently no standardization among operators. Everyone still does it differently, whether by using different microcatheters, particle sizes, or other technical factors. This gives urologists ground to stand on when they argue against PAE. Dr. Mouli feels IRs should approach BPH with the same rigor that urologists do. He believes we need to use the long-term data to prove that PAE is safe, durable and yields better sexual outcomes than TURP or other minimally invasive surgical procedures. This can be accomplished via publishing guidelines for IRs. He believes a good starting place is to only use 300-500 micron particles for de-novo PAE cases. It has been proven this size is safe and results in very low non-target embolization compared to the 100-300 micron size, which more commonly causes this complication and results in more sexual dysfunction. Dr. Mouli says urologists are pushing for surgical intervention before exhausting medical management and argues that IRs should do the same. He believes offering PAE early is in the best interest of patients, because waiting to fail medical management can cause further complications. Dr. Mouli does not get pre-procedure vascular imaging or MRI. This is because he uses intra-procedure cone beam CT. He does this as part of his procedure to map out collaterals and other blood supply to the prostate. He then targets these arteries with coils before using particle embolization on the prostate gland itself. He does this because his goal is to match the 5 year success rate demonstrated in recent studies of over 80 percent, with a less than 20% recurrence rate. He ends by stating that the long-term data show a 10-30% re-treatment rate across all treatment modalities. Knowing this, he feels even stronger that PAE should be the first line therapy, considering it is the least invasive option, it is safe and has the lowest rates of sexual dysfunction. If patients prefer more invasive procedures in the future, they can still go that route, or they can elect for repeat PAE as needed. --- RESOURCES Triago Bilhim Paper: https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s00270-022-03199-8 Francisco Carnevale Paper: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33308534/ UK-ROPE Study: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/29645352/

The host is joined by Dr. Andres Acosta from the Brigham and Women Hospital. Dr Acosta discusses, on behalf of a distinguished group of coauthors, their recent somewhat provocative modern pathology publication proposing that mesenchymal neoplasms of the prostate are morphologically and molecularly heterogeneous lesions that include neoplasms that harbor genetic aberrations seen in specific mesenchymal tumors arising in other anatomic sites, such as soft tissue and the uterus. Study by Acosta et al, Re-evaluating tumors of purported specialized prostatic stromal origin reveals molecular heterogeneity, including non-recurring gene fusions characteristic of uterine and soft tissue sarcoma subtypes.

Erectile Dysfunction: Common Causes and natural solutions – Dr. Jason Jones Elizabeth City NC, Chiropractor Erectile dysfunction (ED) is one of the common health conditions recorded among men. In fact, According to the Urology Care Foundation, it is estimated that 30 million Americans experience ED. Many patients in our Chiropractic Office at Elizabeth City, NC have reported how erectile dysfunction has affected their sex drive, and how it resulted in depression and low self-esteem. So it is important that we discuss this problem, which is common in men. What is Erectile Dysfunction? Erectile dysfunction (ED) is simply the inability to get or maintain a firm enough erection to have sexual intercourse. This condition is sometimes referred to as “impotence.”   Many men experience ED during times of stress, but when it becomes frequent, it is a clear sign of health problems that need medical attention. An erection is normally achieved when there is an increased blood flow into your penis. And this happens when a man is sexually excited. The muscles in your penis relax and blood flows into your penile arteries, resulting in the filling of two chambers inside the penis. This makes the penis grow hard. What are the causes of Erectile Dysfunction? There are many possible causes of ED, including physical and emotional conditions. However, the common causes of ED include: Cardiovascular disease High blood pressure Diabetes Obesity Kidney disease Anxiety Stress Depression High cholesterol Low testosterone levels Increased age Sleep disorders Certain prescription medication Prescription Medications that Can Cause Erectile Dysfunction Numerous prescription medications have been implicated in erectile dysfunction. That's why it is important to always consult your doctor before changing or stopping your medications. Some medications that can cause erectile dysfunction include: Heart medications such as digoxin Drugs that work on the central nervous system, including amphetamines and sleeping pills Drugs to control high blood pressure Anxiety treatments Some diuretics Prostate treatment drugs Opioid painkillers Antidepressants, including monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs). Tricyclic antidepressants, and selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) Anticholinergic drugs Some cancer drugs The peptic ulcer medication cimetidine Hormone drugs Natural Solutions for Erectile dysfunction There are many treatment options available for ED such as drugs, surgical treatments, and more. But the natural solutions are advisable to avoid unpleasant side effects. Here are some natural solutions that have been used to treat erectile dysfunction: Exercises Certain exercises have been shown to help with erectile dysfunction. You can try the following: Kegel exercises: These exercises involve simple movements that help to strengthen your pelvic floor muscles. Start by stopping your pee midstream to identify your pelvic floor muscles. Contract these muscles for at least 3 seconds, and then release them. You can do this exercise three times a day, and 10 to 20 times in a row. Aerobic exercise: You can try moderate to vigorous exercises like swimming and running. These exercises increase your blood flow and improve your overall health Yoga: This helps to relax your mind and ease every form of stress and anxiety. Eating a healthy diet You can prevent or treat erectile dysfunction by eating a healthy diet. This helps to maintain your blood vessels and increase your blood flow. Eat whole grains, fruits, and vegetables Limit your consumption of processed sugars, full-fat dairy, and red meats Limit or quit alcohol consumption Natural herbs You can improve erectile dysfunction by using certain herbs, including: Asparagus racemosus Ginseng, such as Korean ginseng Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) Yohimbe Horny goat weed Acupuncture Acupuncture is a traditional treatment measure that involves inserting needed at specific parts of the skin. This method works for erectile dysfunction through nerve stimulation, and it has an effect on the release of neurotransmitters. Prostatic massage A prostatic massage is an effective form of massage used for ED. During this method, the practitioner massages the tissue in and around the groin to promote the flow of blood to your penis. You may need to undergo this massage several times a week, but it all depends on your symptoms. In conclusion, erectile dysfunction is one of the most common health conditions in men. It is sometimes called impotence and its risk increases with age. There are several factors that can cause ED, including prescription medications. This condition can lead to depression, lower, sex drive, low self-esteem, and stress. Several treatment measures are available for ED, including medical interventions, lifestyle changes, and natural remedies. We however recommend the natural solutions listed above. However, you should consult your doctor before using any of those methods.

How can we improve our prostate game? Tarlan Hedayati, MD schools Matthieu DeClerck, MD, and Neda Frayha, MD with her prostate pro-tips.   Pearls: Think about acute bacterial prostatitis when someone presents with symptoms of acute prostatitis AND has the following characteristics: immunocompromised, symptoms > 36 hours, progressive urinary retention, recent antibiotics for prostatitis. Avoid prostate exams in people with neutropenia given theoretical risk of seeding bacteria.   Distinguishing between acute bacterial prostatitis and prostate abscess can be difficult because patients will look sick (fever, tachycardia, abdominal pain) in both cases Suprapubic pain Abdominal pain Urinary retention History of having had prostatitis in the past Pain with defecation or with prolonged sitting Immunocompromised patient Protracted symptoms > 36 hours Progressive urinary retention Patients who have received antibiotics for prostatitis but are getting worse Overlap symptom: Physical exam and CT scan ultimately will help rule out deadly abscess or other Things to make you think more about abscess: Pearl: do not send a PSA during acute prostatitis. Leads to unnecessary worry and future monitoring of PSA levels. Prostate exam tips: Start with palpation of the anal-rectal junction to get a sense if discomfort is coming from the exam itself versus the prostate and examine if there a rectal abscess Palpate the prostate last to feel for bogginess, tenderness Prostate massage is supposed to increase the sensitivity of urine culture by squeezing bacteria out of the prostate into the urethra. However given the discomfort, probably not needed in the emergency or even primary care setting → it should be a quick exam Pearl: avoid prostate exam in people with neutropenia given theoretical risk of seeding bacteria Categories of prostatitis: A urinalysis, gram stain and culture should not have any bacteria Patients have been dealing with for a longer time and are non-toxic appearing Chronically have WBC’s in the urine with no symptoms Diagnosed by biopsy Acute bacterial prostatitis  Chronic bacterial prostatitis Chronic prostatitis or chronic pelvic pain (90% of prostatitis) Asymptomatic inflammatory prostatitis Treatment: E-coli is the bacteria you’re treating against → check your local antibiogram for resistance patterns Prostate abscess  5th or 6th decade of life Immunosuppression End stage renal disease Indwelling catheter Any recent instrumentation of the prostate Potential complication of inflammatory prostatitis At most 2.5% of patients Risk factors:   REFERENCE: Carroll DE, Marr I, Huang GKL, Holt DC, Tong SYC, Boutlis CS.

Before I get hate mail/emails, let me start by saying that I am not an MD, DO or an oncologist.  However, being a Chiropractor in Elizabeth City, NC since 2001 I am all too familiar with the pain and discomfort my male patients go through when they get a prostate cancer diagnosis.  My intention with this article is to provide practical tips that have been shown to be beneficial. The prostate is a small gland the size of a walnut that sits below the bladder near the rectum. Even though prostate cancer is among the most common non-cutaneous malignancy that mostly occurs in men aged 65-years and above, it is still possible to develop early-onset prostate cancer earlier on in life and men with such diagnoses are between 35-54 years old.   As the numbers continue to gradually increase in the last few decades, researchers believe that it could be due to a variety of factors, including: A genetic predisposition and even though prostate cancer appears to not be inherited, a man can inherit genes that significantly increase the risk Environmental factors like smoking Eating a lot of processed meat or meals that that are dangerously high in fat When fast-growing tumors in young men are entirely missed during screening   What is Prostate Cancer Prostate cancer is a slow-growing disease that occurs when abnormal cells begin to develop in the prostate and continue to multiply uncontrollably to the point of spreading into nearby or distant parts of the body. Today, there are different stages and grades of prostate cancers the most common category is grade 3, and unfortunately, men with low grade or low-risk prostate cancer live for many years without presenting any symptoms or without it spreading and becoming life-threatening.  However, a high-grade prostate disease spreads much more quickly and can be lethal, which is why early diagnosis is vital in order to help a patient find the appropriate management strategy.   It is important to note that there may be no symptoms in the early stages; however, some of the common symptoms of prostate cancer in the later stages might present the following signs, and even though you may not necessarily have this type of cancer, it’s essential to seek medical attention immediately- Finding blood in urine or semen Frequent and sudden urges to urinate Weak urine flow including trouble starting or being unable to urinate even when the urge is strongly present  Discomfort when urinating Pain in the hips, thighs and lower back Natural Ways to Prevent Prostate Cancer   Prostate cancer can lead to permanent quality of life-affecting issues, and while there are no known ways to prevent developing the disease, you can reduce your risks by making positive diet and exercise changes including the following natural remedies: Consuming anti-inflammatory foods Omega-3 fatty acids foods like various seafood, flaxseeds, and walnuts A compound called lycopene found in tomatoes, grapefruit, watermelon, and apricots has been found to reduce the risk of prostate, lung, and stomach cancer Attend regular screening   Things to avoid include: Oils that contain substantial amounts of omega-6 fatty acids Sugars and carbohydrates Grilled or fried meats   

Masculinity, prostate pleasure, shame, and multiple orgasms. In this episode we talk about the evolution of masculinity over the last few decades- from different cultural stereotypes, to new challenges, and the consequences of "toxic" masculinity. Our guest on the show is Charlie Glickman, the author of The Ultimate Guide to Prostate Pleasure, with whom we also discuss the role of shame in men's pleasure and the "Million Dollar Point," a seldom talked about spot that allegedly allows men to have multiple orgasms.  Show Notes!

Dr. Peter Nash talks about prostatic disease and its treatments.

Objectives: Different thermotherapeutic modalities such as transurethral microwave therapy or transurethral needle ablation have been developed to provide effective alternatives to surgical management of benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH). The mechanisms of thermotherapy, however, are not completely understood. We developed a model to investigate the effects of heat application on stromal cell viability and contractility. Methods: Cells isolated from prostatectomy and cystoprostatectomy specimens were cultured in a selective medium. Temperatures ranging from 37 to 50 degrees C were applied for 1 h. Cell contraction was visualized by means of a cell culture microscope equipped with a time-lapse video system. For quantitative analysis, the percentage of contracting cells was evaluated; 10 mu M of phenylepherine were applied for adrenergic stimulation of the eel Is. Results: On immunohistochemistry and phase-contrast microscopy, these cells were identified as prostatic myofibroblasts. Incubation at 50 degrees C for 1 h in vitro induced immediate death of all cells, whereas at 45 degrees C a II cells survived. At 37 degrees C 55% of the cells were seen to contract after addition of phenylephrine. Immediately after incubation at 45 degrees C contraction rate decreased to 29%, but returned to 46% 1 day later. Conclusions: With this model, it is possible to study the mechanisms of thermotherapy in vitro. The results suggest that the effects of thermotherapy are due to the induction of cell death rather than to reduced stromal cell contractility. Furthermore, the data show that treatment is probably only successful if temperatures in excess of 50 degrees C are maintained. Copyright (C) 2000 S. Karger AG, Basel.
