Specific nursing improves postoperative urine control function and the self-efficacy of patients undergoing radical prostatectomies.

Background: Radical prostatectomy is a treatment for prostate cancer (PC), but most patients suffer urinary incontinence, decreased urinary control function, and poor prognoses after the surgery. Specific nursing intervention is a nursing model based on the patients' individual conditions and disease progression.

Objective: To investigate the effects of specific nursing intervention on the urinary control functions and self-efficacy of radical prostatectomy patients.
