Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
To compare the day-surgery approach versus routine management in patients undergoing robotic radical prostatectomy, aimed at evaluating the feasibility of a one-day hospitalization regimen for robotic radical prostatectomy. The study will allow to evaluate the patients'compliance and subsequently investigate the safety, the impact on the patient's quality of life and on the healthcare costs resulting from day-surgery management of patients undergoing robotic radical prostatectomy.

- Day surgery management
- description
- Day-surgery management of patients undergoing robotic radical prostatectomy. It represents a multidisciplinary management that includes nurses, physiotherapists, anesthesiologists and urologists. In addition, patients will be provided with a telemedicine device, to ensure contact between doctor and patient. Patients assigned to the experimental arm will be summoned together with the caregiver the days before the operation to discuss specifically with the nurse, anesthesiologist and urologist the procedure that they will have to follow. At this meeting, the functioning of the telemedicine device will be illustrated.
