Brief Summary
The aim of the study is to evaluate whether changing antibiotic prophylaxis from fluoroquinolones alone to fluoroquinolones plus gentamicin 160mg single IM dose or targeted antibiotic prophylaxis according to rectal swab culture would influence infectious complication rates in those men undergoing transrectal ultrasound-guided prostate biopsy.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
occurrence of post procedure infectious complications
occurrence of post procedure infectious complications (e.g urosepsis and local genital or prostate infectious complications). Sepsis is identified as occurrence of two or more of SIRS criteria.
2 weeks
Secondary Outcomes (2)
flouroquinolones resistance in rectal carriage
2 weeks
post procedure non-infectious complications
2 weeks
Study Arms (3)
ciprofloxacin
ACTIVE COMPARATORstandard chemoprophylaxis \[500mg ciprofloxacin twice daily for 3 days\]
ciprofloxacin and gentamycine
EXPERIMENTALAugmented Chemoprophylaxis \[standard chemoprophylaxis plus 160mg\]
culture based chemoprophylaxis
EXPERIMENTALPatients will receive antibiotic according to rectal swab culture at time of biopsy and then after for 3 days.
Interventions
500mg ciprofloxacin twice daily starting the day before biopsy and continued for 3 days after
standard chemoprophylaxis plus gentamicin 160mg intramuscular once just before the biopsy
Patients will receive antibiotic according to rectal swab culture at time of biopsy and then after for 3 days.
