Reducing post-operative length of stay for patients undergoing TURP & TURBNI

Reducing post-operative length of stay for patients undergoing TURP & TURBNI

Tags: Virtual Poster Showcase

Organisation: Singapore General Hospital

2025

Transurethral Resection of Prostate (TURP) was a procedure identified by SGH to adopt the Value Driven Care (VDC) programme, to monitor outcomes for further improvement. The indicator identified as the main area of improvement is post-operative length of stay (LOS), in which cases would not meet the indicator if post-op LOS exceeded 1 day.

In the existing workflow for patients undergoing TURP, the urinary catheter is usually left in situ until post-op day (POD) 2 to monitor for post-op complications. However, there has been evidence suggesting that early removal of catheter is safe in select group of patients.

The project aimed to increase the proportion of patients undergoing TURP in SGH with post-op length of stay ≤1 day from 26.9% to 40% (median rates) in 1 year.
