PROSTIVA® RF Therapy
Procedure Basic Steps
Procedure Overview
• Average actual procedure time takes 20 minutes
– Total office visit time is approximately 90 minutes
• During insertion, anatomical landmarks are located using
direct vision or a video system
• Needles and shields are deployed to pre-determined
treatment depth
• Energy is delivered by the RF generator
• Needles and shields are fully retracted and repositioned
for next lesion
PROSTIVA® RF Therapy Procedure
• Prepare patient
• Administer comfort control
• Measure prostate
• Determine number of treatment planes
• Treat median lobe if necessary
• Create lesions
Patient Preparation
• Clinicians should give their patients detailed
instructions about the procedure
– Understand risks associated with procedure
– Realistic expectations for prognosis and recovery
• Typical total time spent in office for procedure is
about 90 minutes
• Actual procedure takes about 20 minutes
Patient Instructions
• Discontinue all medications containing aspirin, ibuprofen, and
vitamin E products two weeks prior to procedure
• Stop Coumadin® approximately five days prior to procedure
with cardiologist’s approval
• Suggest either NPO after midnight or eat a light meal early in
the morning of procedure
• Take regular medications as necessary
• Wear comfortable clothing day of procedure
• Bring favorite CD to listen to during procedure
• Recommend decreasing alcohol, caffeine intake, and tobacco
use 48 hours prior to procedure
• Arrange for someone to drive you home
Parrot, Urologic Nursing 2003.
Role of Nurse
Nurse is critical to success of PROSTIVA® RF Therapy procedure
• Guides the patient
– Review and sign consent form
– Appropriate time to take oral medications for comfort control
• Keeps patient informed and relaxed throughout the entire process
• Preps the area and sets up equipment prior to procedure
• Drapes and catheterizes patient with 14 or 16 Fr catheter for purpose
of emptying bladder and instilling liquid lidocaine
• Drains bladder
• Instills topical lidocaine in bladder and urethra
• Attaches the return electrode to lumbar region of back
Parrot, Urologic Nursing 2003.
Role of Nurse
• Monitors vital signs during procedure
• Checks circulation of lower extremities since
patient is in a dorsal lithotomy position
• Assesses patient comfort
• Maintains necessary documentation as required
at institution
• Reviews post-operative instructions and
expectations
Parrot, Urologic Nursing 2003.
Importance of the Return Electrode
Tips for Accurate Placement
• Return electrode has been redesigned to have a split–pad.
• Placement and proper application of the ground pad is
critical to prevent burns and insure proper impedances.
• The split-pad return electrode should be positioned at the
lower back and securely applied to ensure complete skin
contact (no creases or bubbles should be present).
• Do not place over metal prostheses or monitoring
electrodes, scars, bony prominences, excessive hair or the
abdomen because it can affect circuit impedance.
Return Electrode

Return Electrode Placement
• Position return electrode
at lower back
• Return electrode cable
side should face toward
the generator
• Place horizontally across
lower portion of the small
of the back directly above
the buttocks
Secure Return Electrode
to Lower Back
• Apply at one edge and
press firmly
• Smooth to opposite edge
so the entire area is
completely attached to
the patient’s skin
Comfort Control
• Clinical trials demonstrated that the PROSTIVA®
RF Therapy procedure can be performed without
the need for general or regional (spinal)
anesthesia. Most patients require only mild
sedation, topical anesthesia, and/or prostate
block.
• Medical practice is solely the responsibility of the
individual physician and not Medtronic.

Comfort Control - Example #1
Oral therapy
•
Give combination of analgesic with sedative/hypnotic one hour prior to procedure
–
100 mg of oral Demerol®
–
10 mg of oral Valium®
Topical bladder instillation of lidocaine
•
•
•
Insert small catheter through the urethra and drain bladder
Through the catheter instill a mixture of 30 cc 2% lidocaine jelly and 30 cc 2%
injectable lidocaine (chilled, shaken)
Place clamp on penis for approximately 15 minutes, while procedure set-up and
transrectal sonography commence
Ultrasound-guided transrectal prostate block
•
•
•
•
Perform with a biplanar probe, using axial view of ultrasound
Activate the puncture guide for the probe and target the juncture between the base of
the prostate and the seminal vesicle
Inject approximately 8-10 cc of 2% plain lidocaine into the nerve plexus on each side,
with the visual goal of elevating the base of the prostate off of the rectal wall at the
juncture
Warn patient that he may experience temporary numbness in the tongue or ringing in
the ears. This may be due to the patient absorbing a small amount of the anesthetic
systemically

Comfort Control Protocol
• Describe your comfort control protocol
• See Medtronic PROSTIVA® RF Therapy
procedural video for several comfort
control options, which can be used during
the PROSTIVA RF Therapy procedure.
Medical practice is solely the responsibility
of the individual physician and not
Medtronic.
Measure Prostate
• Determine distance from verumontanum to
bladder neck
• Perform transrectal ultrasound to
determine maximum transverse diameter
– Calculate prostate volume based on
ultrasonic measurement
– Measure transverse width in axial orientation
at level of the urethra from the TRUS

Selecting Appropriate
Needle Length
• Hand piece has six preset lengths ranging from
12 to 22 mm with 2 mm increments
• Needle shields automatically retract to protect the
urethra
• Recommended guidelines based on clinical
experience for needle settings
The selection of the appropriate needle length is the clinician’s sole
medical judgment.
PROSTIVA® RF Therapy System User Guide.
Treatment Approach
• Guidelines for determining the number of treatment
planes are based on the distance from the bladder to the
verumontanum (veru):
– Ideally, a minimum of two planes should be treated provided that
the distance from the needle placement to the bladder neck and
from the needle placement to the veru remains 0.75-1.0 cm
• A treatment plane consists of delivery of energy to the
right and left lobes at the same level
Determination of the number of treatment planes is the clinician’s
sole medical judgment.
PROSTIVA® RF Therapy System User Guide.

Treatment Planes
Recommended guidelines
PROSTIVA® RF Therapy System User Guide.
Median Lobe Treatment
• Visualize size and structure
• Needles should be deployed 1 cm away from the
proximal margin of the bladder neck
• Select needle length of 12 or 14 is recommended
Determination of median lobe treatment locations and appropriate
needle length is the clinician’s sole medical judgment.
PROSTIVA® RF Therapy System User Guide.
Median Lobe Treatment Locations
Recommended
treatment locations
• Proximal (upper) end
– 10, 12, and 2 o’clock
• Distal (lower) end
– 6 o’clock location is for
therapy at distal end

• Monitor urethral temperature.
– Irrigate the urethra if it reaches 43º C
• To keep the urethra cooled, irrigate with small
flushes of irrigation fluid. Use approximately
0.5-1.0 ml. of fluid.
• To drain the bladder, open the stopcock to the
aspiration position.
