In the researchers' words
The main objective of the study is to estimate and compare the overall cost of care of patients over 60 months of follow-up between two groups: (1) patients undergoing robot-assisted radical prostatectomy using the Da Vinci system versus (2) patients undergoing robot-assisted radical prostatectomy via laparotomy. The time horizon of the main objective changes to 60 months (due to the opportunity to access patient care consumption from the National Health Data System).
