A prospective experimental study design was used. The data of patients who satisfied the inclusion criteria were collected through convenience sampling in the urology outpatient department of Linkou Chang Gung Memorial Hospital and Keelung Chang Gung Memorial Hospital, Taiwan, from May 2019 to January 2021.
