ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is studying the effects of robot-assisted surgery for a procedure called radical cystectomy, which involves removing the bladder, and possibly reconstructing it. The researchers want to find out how this type of surgery affects blood loss, pain levels, and the need for blood transfusions in patients. The goal is to understand if using robotic technology can make the surgery safer and more comfortable for patients.

To participate in this trial, you should be between the ages of 65 and 74 and have a planned radical cystectomy. However, if you have a severe health condition or a known blood clotting disorder, you won’t be eligible. If you join the study, you can expect to be monitored closely for your blood loss and pain after the surgery, and researchers will track whether you need any blood transfusions. This information could help improve future treatments for patients undergoing bladder surgery.
