Abstract

: This study assessed how early postoperative rehabilitation interventions affected the duration of hospital stay in patients with prostate cancer who had radical prostatectomy with robotic assistance. : From the Japanese Diagnosis Procedure Combination database, we extracted case data for patients discharged between April 2014 and March 2020. Patients were recognized by code C61 from the International Classification of Diseases, 10th Edition. We ran a multilevel linear regression analysis to investigate the impact of early rehabilitation on the duration of hospital stay. : There were 2151 participants in the trial. In patients with prostate cancer who had resection utilizing robotic-assisted devices, early rehabilitation was related to a substantial decrease in duration of hospital stay (coefficient, -0.86; 95% CI, -1.64 to -0.07; P=0.032). : Early postoperative rehabilitation may contribute to shorter hospital stays in patients with prostate cancer at high risk of both postoperative complications and a decline in their ability to perform activities of daily living.
