Massage Percussion for Passage of Urolithiasis Fragments After Ureteroscopy.

Nephrolithiasis

Flexible ureteroscopy is characterized as first-line therapy for renal stones < 2 cm in size. Stones are commonly treated with dusting or fragmentation techniques which requires passage of stone fragments after surgery. Quoted stone free rate after flexible ureteroscopy is approximately 40-60% with a dusting technique. Residual fragments are often under 1mm in size and can layer in the lower pole of the kidney, complicating spontaneous stone passage. Improving the stone free rate after surgery decreases the need for secondary surgeries and decreases risk of future stone events. Numerous techniques have been proposed to increase stone passage including positional changes and percussion therapy. To date, there is overall limited data a lack of techniques that can be readily available in the outpatient setting, easily added to scheduled appointments, reproducible results and well tolerated by patients.

Prevention of Urinary Stones With Hydration

Urinary Stones

A randomized clinical trial to investigate the impact of increased fluid intake and increased urine output on the recurrence rate of urinary stone disease (USD) in adults and children. The primary aim of the trial is to determine whether a multi-component program of behavioral interventions to increase fluid intake will result in reduced risk of stone disease progression over a 2-year period.

Analysis of Urine Composition Saturation and Dietary Intervention in Subjects Without Urinary Calculi...

CalculiUrinary2 more

Urinary calculi have become a global public health problem, which brings a huge economic burden to society and individuals. The pathogenesis of urinary calculi is not completely clear. Supersaturation of urinary components is a necessary condition for the formation of urinary calculi. The causes of stone formation are closely related to diet, drugs, metabolic disorders, basic diseases, genetic factors, environment and so on. Diet essentially determines the composition of urine, which affects the formation of urinary calculi. The effect of dietary phosphorus intake on stones is not clear. There is a lack of data to support dietary phosphorus as an influencing factor of stone formation. Phosphorus is present in most foods. 24h urine composition analysis is of great value in predicting the occurrence and composition of urinary calculi. However, due to the interaction between urine components, a single urine component can not well predict the occurrence of stones. Therefore, the researchers introduced the relative supersaturation of common stone components in urine to predict the incidence of stones. Therefore, we want to give healthy adults a diet with different phosphorus content for a period of time to clarify the effect of phosphorus in the diet on 24h urine composition level and urine relative supersaturation, so as to further explore the relationship between dietary phosphorus and the incidence of urinary calculi. To provide more clear recommendations for early prevention of urinary calculi, and provide more evidence for clinical decision-making, thereby reducing the incidence rate of urinary calculi.

Differences in Postoperative Symptoms With Three Ureteral Stents

Urinary Stone

This is a prospective randomized controlled trial designed to assess the differences in postoperative symptoms related to placement of a 6Fr Percuflex ureteral stents, 6Fr Tria ureteral stents, and 4.8Fr Tria ureteral stents after ureteroscopy with laser lithotripsy for treatment of upper tract urinary stones. 192 participants will be enrolled and will be on study for up to approximately 10 weeks.

Use of Antibiotic Based Irrigation for Ureteroscopic Treatment of Urolithiasis

Urinary Tract InfectionsSepsis

The purpose of the study is to investigate whether the use of gentamicin-based irrigation fluid during ureteroscopy decreases the risk of UTIs and other post-operative infections after surgery.

Dapagliflozin and Hydrochlorothiazide in Recurring Kidney Stone Patients

UrolithiasisHyperoxaluria

Current prevention strategies in patients with recurrence of kidney stones show especially in high-risk patients a diversely and in the long-term not successful outcome in a sustainable number of cases. Recent studies have revealed that Dapagliflozin has the potential to decrease risk and incidence of urolithiasis events especially in patients suffering from Diabetes. The investigators propose that Dapagliflozin has the potential to increase the metabolic situation of hyperoxaluric patients with recurrence of urolithiasis. The investigators therefore test whether Dapagliflozin can decrease the oxalate excretion compared to the current strategy with Hydrochlorothiazide. The study may open up a new way of preventing urolithiasis in patients with high-risk of recurring urolithiasis.

Detection of Urinary Stones on ULDCT With Deep-learning Image Reconstruction Algorithm

UrolithiasisUrinary Tract Stones2 more

Urolithiasis has an increasing incidence and prevalence worldwide, and some patients may have multiple recurrences. Because these stone-related episodes may lead to multiple diagnostic examinations requiring ionizing radiation, urolithiasis is a natural target for dose reduction efforts. Abdominopelvic low dose CT, which has the highest sensitivity and specificity among available imaging modalities, is the most appropriate diagnostic exam for this pathology. The main objective of this study is to evaluate the diagnostic performance of ultra-low dose CT using deep learning-based reconstruction in urolithiasis patients.
