NCT02350543

Brief Summary

This study evaluates the continuation (non-discontinuation) of Aspirin during TURBT. Half of participants will continue their usual low-dose Aspirin regimen during TURBT and throughout the perioperative period, while the other half will discontinue Aspirin use ten days prior to surgery (standard recommendation) and restart therapy two weeks post-discharge.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Significant hematuria (composite endpoint)

    (Composite endpoint): 1. Requiring bladder catheter drainage (after catheter removal), 2. requiring re-hospitalization, 3. requiring operative intervention (ie. cystoscopy +/- transurethral fulguration). Each sub-element within the composite endpoint will receive a binary score \[0,1\] to denote occurrence. Similarly, the primary endpoint is a binary measure indicating occurrence of any sub-element. Sub-elements 1-3 (re-cath, re-hospitalization, or cystoscopic intervention) may occur at any point throughout the followup period.

    Post-operative admission period until 45 days post-discharge.

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Time to urinary catheter removal

    up to 45 days

  • Withholding or withdrawal of Aspirin

    up to 45 days

  • Time to urine clearance

    up to 45 days

Study Arms (2)

Aspirin continuation

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Continued use of Acetylsalicylic acid at prior dosage (75mg or 100mg tablet one-per-day).

Drug: Aspirin

Aspirin discontinuation

NO INTERVENTION

Discontinuation of Acetylsalicylic acid ten days prior to surgery, and re-initiation two weeks after hospital discharge.

Interventions

Also known as: Acetylsalicylic acid
