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
