Frimley Health NHS Trust set an NHS record with 12 robot-assisted Aquablation prostate procedures in one day, enabling same-day discharge for most patients and faster recovery.
Frimley Health NHS Foundation Trust set an NHS record by performing 12 robot-assisted Aquablation procedures in one day to treat men with enlarged prostates, a common condition causing urinary issues and sleep disruption.
The minimally invasive procedure, which uses a heat-free waterjet guided by real-time imaging, allowed 11 of the 12 patients to go home the same day—offering a faster recovery and fewer side effects than traditional surgeries like TURP.
As the first NHS trust in England to adopt Aquablation, Frimley has treated over 500 patients in five years.
Surgeons say the technique’s efficiency could help reduce growing waiting lists, while patients like Nigel Howlett, who waited 18 months, reported significant improvements in quality of life.
