Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Teleconsultation
Tele consultation (experimental) - after the randomization the patient is guided to seek primary care under teleconsultation supervision to keep his treatment. One year later the patient's symptoms are reassessed in a medical consultation.
Teleconsultation
Teleconsultation - the teleconsultation usage in chronic diseases, such as benign hyperplasia, seems to be a promising scenario. Once the patient symptoms are evaluated and diagnosed as a stable disease he is able to keep his treatment annually. In a way to do not overload de tertiary system, such monitoring could be done under a teleconsultation with a urological supervision in the primary care.
Hospital
Hospital (control) - after the randomization the patient is guided to keep his treatment in the tertiary care as usual. One year later the patient's symptoms are reassessed in a medical consultation.
Hospital (control)
The patient will keep his usual care at the tertiary care.
