- Antibiotics prophylaxis at the time of catheter removal after radical prostatectomy: a systematic review of the literature and meta-analysis(2024) SANTOS, Leticia Lourenco dos; FRAGA, Isabela de Almeida; ALMEIDA, Vitor Amaral de; SANTOS, Andressa Hellen Ribeiro; ALMEIDA, Isabelle Matos; NASCIMENTO, Tatiana Roberta; PORTO, Breno Cordeiro; PASSEROTTI, Carlo Camargo; ARTIFON, Everson Luiz de Almeida; OTOCH, Jose Pinhata; CRUZ, Jose Arnaldo Shiomi daPurpose: To conduct a systematic literature review with meta-analysis to identify whether antibiotic prophylaxis after removal of the indwelling urinary catheter reduces posterior infections. Methods: A systematic literature review was conducted in the databases PubMed, Embase, Cochrane, Google Scholar, and Latin American and Caribbean Health Sciences Literature, using the keywords ""antibiotics"" AND ""prostatectomy"" AND ""urinary catheter."" Results: Three articles were identified having the scope of our review, with 1,040 patients, which were subjected to our meta-analysis revealing a marginally significant decrease in the risk of urinary infection after indwelling urinary catheter removal (odds ratio-OR = 0.51; 95% confidence interval-95%CI 0.27-0.98; p = 0.04; I2 = 0%). No difference was found regarding the presence of bacteriuria (OR = 0.39; 95%CI 0.12-1.24; p = 0.11; I2 = 73%). Conclusions: In our meta-analysis, there was a significant decrease in urinary tract infection with antibiotic prophylaxis after indwelling urinary catheter removal following radical prostatectomy.
