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 COMPARATORContinued use of Acetylsalicylic acid at prior dosage (75mg or 100mg tablet one-per-day).
Aspirin discontinuation
NO INTERVENTIONDiscontinuation of Acetylsalicylic acid ten days prior to surgery, and re-initiation two weeks after hospital discharge.
