Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
The pain of the biopsy procedure
The pain will be measured by numerical rating scale(NRS), which distributed from 0 to 10. 0 represents no pain, and 10 represents the worst pain imaginable.
within10 minutes after the prostate biopsy
Secondary Outcomes (12)
The pain in 1,6, and 12 hours after the biopsy
1,6, and 12 hours after the biopsy
Changes in blood pressure during biopsy procedure
During the biopsy procedure
Changes in heart rate during biopsy procedure
During the biopsy procedure
Changes in breath rate during biopsy procedure
During the biopsy procedure
The detection rate for prostate cancer
within 1 month after the biopsy
- +7 more secondary outcomes
Study Arms (2)
Perineal nerve block
EXPERIMENTALMan receive the perineal nerve block before under the transperineal prostate biopsy
Periprostatic block
ACTIVE COMPARATORMan receive the periprostatic block before under the transperineal prostate biopsy
