Active clinical trials for "Renal Colic"

This will be a randomized two arm prospective study to evaluate postoperative ureteral stent pain. One arm will be given 3 days of preoperative darifenacin and the control group will have the standard of care which is no preoperative anticholinergic medication. The primary endpoints will be decreased pain scores and less ER visits and hospital admissions for stent difficulty. These will be assessed by a pain diary completed by the participant as well as a questionnaire when the participant returns to clinic for stent removal. Also included in evaluation of the primary end point will be patient phone calls, ER visits and admissions for stent difficulty. Secondary endpoints will be narcotic and postoperative anticholinergic use. This will also be assessed with the pain diary completed by the participant. Participants will be included in the study if they are undergoing a procedure that a stent will likely be required. This will include participants who will have ureteroscopy or extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy and a stone 1 cm or larger. Also participants with stones smaller than 1 cm who due to anatomy of the ureter or kidney will likely need a stent on preoperative evaluation will also be included in the study. Included as well in the study are participants who will undergo renal or ureteral surgery that a ureteral stent will be utilized. Participants will be randomized after consent is obtained into two groups. One group will receive standard of care which is no preoperative anticholinergic medications. The second group will receive the three day treatment with darifenacin pre procedure. Participants in the second group will be instructed on side effects of darifenacin and given appropriate contact information prior to initiation of the medication. Both groups will be followed postoperatively with a pain diary. Postoperative follow up will continue until the stent is removed 1-2 weeks after the procedure. The exact time of stent removal will depend on the success and nature of the surgery and will be at the discretion of the surgeon. Participants will be able to voluntarily stop the medication for any reason as well as if they have serious side effects from the medication. Data to be collected from each group includes age, gender, race, prior ureteral stents, prior renal or ureteral surgery, past medical history, allergies, current medications and urinary complaints.

This is a phase III, multicenter, randomized, single blind study designed to evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of a single dose of parecoxib compared with diclofenac in the treatment of acute pain due to renal colic.

Urolithiasis is one of the most common urological diseases. The risk of stone disease ranges between 5% and 12% worldwide. Ureteric stones account for ≈20% of all urinary tract stones and >70% of the ureteric stones are located in the lower third of the ureter, i.e., distal ureteric stones (DUS). The colicky-type pain in the ureter, an increase in proximal peristalsis through activation of intrinsic ureteral pacemakers may contribute to the perception of pain. Muscle spasm increased proximal peristalsis, local inflammation, irritation, and oedema at the site of obstruction may contribute to the development of pain through chemoreceptor activation and stretching of submucosal free nerve endings. α-adrenergic blockers, anti-inflammatory drugs, antihistaminic and calcium channel blockers, which have a relaxant effect on the ureteric smooth musculature. The presence of histamine receptors in the ureter have been presented in various studies. The histamine-1 (H1) receptors have been shown to have a wide distribution Histamine, which is secreted from the mast cells, causes strong peristaltic contractions in the ureter. alpha adrenoreceptor antagonists (i.e., tamsulosin) have been employed in the treatment of ureteric colic due to smooth muscle relaxation so their potential ability to increase stone passage, reduce pain medication use and reduce urologic interventions. According to the currently accepted view, renal colic management starts with NSAI drugs also NSAI has role in decrease inflammation and oedema and increase expulsion rate . in this study we will compare the use of alpha blocker versus alpha blocker and antihistaminic in management of acute renal colic prevent pain recurrence and increase expulsion rate of ureteric stone ≤ 1cm, with analgesic use in case of acute stage.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether Tramadol Hcl is as effective as Voltaren a non-steroidal antiinflammatory drug, and Dipyrone in amelioration of the pain caused by acute renal colic.

Opioid analgesics are among the most commonly prescribed class of medications in the US. While opioids may effectively control pain and other sensory disorders under acute conditions, the rates of misuse/abuse and accidental overdose have reached epidemic proportions. Clinicians are being challenged to find alternatives to opioid analgesics, or to reduce their use in treating pain whenever possible. Pre-clinical studies have shown that combining morphine (opioid drug) with pramipexole (dopamine 3 receptor agonist with some D2/D4 action) provides superior analgesia against painful stimuli than morphine alone. This analgesia is maintained even when the dose of morphine is lowered to a dose that is not effective on its own. A recent case report describes the use of this combination to restore pain control in a patient with restless legs syndrome, for which opioids alone have lost their effectiveness (Happe S, Clemens S and Brewer KL, In Review). This application proposes to establish a new therapeutic approach for treatment of a pain associated with renal colic (a common painful condition) using a novel combination of 2 existing, FDA-approved drugs. The immediate goal is to demonstrate that this drug combination can provide similar analgesia to opioid alone, and that analgesia is maintained when the opioid dose is reduced by 50%.

Hypothesis: Intravenous administration of Ketorolac 10 mg and 20 mg is as effective as 30 mg in treating renal colic pain in patients presenting to the emergency department

The aim of the present trial was to investigate the analgesic efficacy and safety of Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation treatment in patients with renal colic within the emergency department.

Rate of Intravenous Magnesium Sulfate Vs Lidocaine to treat Renal Colic in the Emergency Department.

The aim of the investigators study was to evaluate the feasibility, efficacy and safety of nebulized morphine compared with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory (NSAI)intravenously in the management of renal colic. Determine the need for systematic outpatient prescription of NSAI.

Renal colics are a common cause af acute intense pain in medical emergency settings requiring often the use of high level antalgics (opioid) to relief the patient. In the other hand, Acupuncture is well known widely for its therapeutic characteristics, especially in relieving pain. the aim of these study is to compare this two pain relieving techniques in patients consulting the emergency departement (ED) for acute onset renal colics.
