Transcript
Essentially, after the TFTR, they go home almost immediately after. We do the procedure with some light sedation. So after a very short
recovery, maybe 30 minutes, the patient's home and back to full activity. In fact, he could resume any intercourse at anytime. The procedure
is very quick. Total procedure time takes anywhere from about 30 minutes to as much as an hour.
