Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This is a prospective series of consecutive cases of patients undergoing iTind for the treatment of male LUTS.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This is a prospective series of consecutive cases of patients undergoing iTind for the treatment of male LUTS.The procedure was carried out using perioperative antibiotic prophylaxis, according to the local culture and sensitivity profile. Patient will be discharged and readmitted 7 days for device removal under local anaesthesia transurethrally. After the device is removed and patients will be monitor for any problem in voiding or haematuria, and then discharged. Subjects will be follow-up at 3-, 6, 12- months after treatment.

Temporarily implanted nitinol device (iTind) group

Subjects will undergo iTind for the treatment of male LUTS.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

iTind device

Intervention Type DEVICE

Cystoscopy will be performed to assess the anatomy of the bladder and prostate. The iTind device would be inserted under visual guidance into the bladder. The device will then be deployed and under visual guidance, it will be positioned at the prostatic lumen. After confirming the position of the device, cystoscopy will be withdrawn and the position will be finished.
