What’s New?
Our study showed that a different application of rectal enema prevents
urinary tract infection after prostate biopsy. In addition, in our
research, it was shown that the second rectal enema administration did
not show any difference in urinary tract infection in patients without
diabetes, while it reduced urinary tract infection in patients with
diabetes. Although, thus, diabetes and advanced age were found to be
independent risk factors for urinary tract infection, the second enema
was also found to be a protective factor.
