A member asked:

I am having a cystoscopy soon. i'm to arrive an hour prior to the procedure to be prepped. what is entailed in the prepping?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Nothing serious: Prepped means introducing your data in hospital system, measuring vital signs, get everything ready. Does not mean you have to get other procedures.
