Official title

Occupational Situation of Patients With Urological Diseases and Return to Work in Patients Undergoing Major Uro-Oncological Operations and Procedures for Urinary Tract Stones

Overview

This study will examine the work status of all adult patients admitted over a 6-month period to the University Hospital in Kraków, Poland, for treatment of urological diseases. All admitted patients will be surveyed about their job situation. Patients who are occupationally active and undergoing major oncological surgeries (such as radical cystectomy, prostatectomy, or nephrectomy) or procedures for urinary tract stones will also complete a quality-of-life questionnaire and be followed up by phone at 3 and 6 months. The goal is to learn how treatment affects patients' ability to return to work and their well-being, to help guide support and rehabilitation strategies.

Interventions

  • Other Occupational Status Survey and Telephone Follow-up and Quality-of-Life Assessment in a subset of patients
    Collection of demographic, employment, and clinical data at hospital admission, with additional EQ-5D-5L quality-of-life questionnaire and telephone follow-up for occupationally active patients undergoing major uro-oncological surgeries or urinary tract stone procedures.

  • Return to Work Rate in Occupationally Active Patients Undergoing Procedures for Urinary Tract Stones [Time frame: 3 months and 6 months after procedure]
Secondary outcome measures (2)
  • Change in Quality of Life in Occupationally Active Patients Undergoing Major Uro-Oncological Surgeries (EQ-5D-5L Score) [Time frame: Baseline, 3 months, and 6 months]
  • Change in Quality of Life in Occupationally Active Patients Undergoing Procedures for Urinary Tract Stones (EQ-5D-5L Score) [Time frame: Baseline, 3 months, and 6 months]
