- Informed consent process detailing the procedure, benefits, and potential risks.
- Fasting for several hours before the procedure if general or spinal anesthesia is planned.
- Temporary discontinuation of blood-thinning medications (e.g., aspirin, warfarin) as advised by the doctor.
Risks & possible complications
- Common: Discomfort or burning sensation during urination, temporary blood-tinged urine.
- Infection of the urinary tract (UTI).
- Injury to the urethra or bladder wall, potentially causing perforation.
- Failure to completely evacuate all clots, requiring a repeat procedure.
- Re-accumulation of clots if the underlying bleeding source is not controlled.
- Rare risks include severe bleeding, adverse reaction to anesthesia, or sepsis.
Recovery & hospital stay
- Most patients can go home the same day after observation, once urination is established.
- Drink plenty of water (2-3 liters daily) to flush the bladder and reduce irritation.

My dad was admitted to MGM...
My dad was admitted to MGM with a bad fever and we were all worried. Dr. Ramya Shri was the one who really talked to us. She didn't just give medical updates; she explained things in a way we could understand, told us what to watch for at home, and actually listened to our concerns. It made a stressful time much easier to handle.
