About this trial
This is an interventional treatment trial for Kidney Stone focused on measuring Kidney Stone, Urolithiasis, Nephrolithiasis, Renal Calculi, Kidney Calculi, Nephrolith, Urinary Calculi, Ultrasound therapy, Non-invasive, Extracorporeal
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria: Subjects presenting with at least one stone apparent on radiographic imaging. Target stone must be within the upper urinary tract. Target stone is indicated for shock wave lithotripsy (SWL) treatment per American Urological Association (AUA) 2016 guidelines. Target stone size is > 4 mm and ≤ 10 mm. Subject is willing and able to provide informed consent and comply with the study protocol required follow up visits. Target stone can be individually visualized from other stones. Exclusion Criteria: Subject has an acute untreated urinary tract infection or urosepsis. Subject has an uncorrected bleeding disorder or coagulation abnormality. Subject is confirmed to be or suspected to be pregnant. Subject has a urinary tract obstruction distal to the stone. Subject is receiving anticoagulants and is unable or not willing to cease the medication for the Break Wave procedure Subject has stones that are not echogenically visible with ultrasound. Subject belongs to a vulnerable group (prisoner, etc.). Patients unwilling to comply with the follow-up protocol, including post-procedure radiographic imaging. Subject is under 18 years of age. Subject's anatomy limits ability to focus on or deliver Break Wave to the target stone (e.g. viable acoustic window). Subject has a calcified abdominal aortic aneurysm or calcified renal artery aneurysms. Subject has a solitary kidney. Subject has a comorbidity risk(s) which, at the discretion of the physician, would make the subject a poor candidate for the Break Wave procedure, such as anatomical anomalies that may not be conducive to adequate stone fragment passage. Subject is unable to read or comprehend the consent form.
