SGLT2i in Kidney Stones
This study is looking at whether empagliflozin, a medication typically used for diabetes and heart conditions, may affect factors that contribute to kidney stone formation. The research focuses on people who have had calcium-based kidney stones, i.e. calcium oxalate or calcium phosphate stones. Previous studies in those without kidney stones …
Outcomes of Using FANS With FURS in TTT of Lower Calyceal Stones.
The aim of this study is to evaluate and assess the outcomes of flexible ureteroscopy (FURS) with flexible and navigable suction UAS (FANS) in the treatment of lower calyceal stones.
FANS-Assisted Mini-PCNL for Complex Renal Stones
This prospective pilot study aims to evaluate the feasibility, safety, and preliminary clinical outcomes of a novel mini-percutaneous nephrolithotomy (mini-PCNL) technique integrating a flexible mini-nephroscope with a flexible and navigable suction access sheath (FANS) for the treatment of complex renal stones. Thirty consecutive patients with renal stones ≥2 cm will …
Research on Early Warning and Diagnosis & Treatment Pathway for Micro Kidney Stones
Exploring abnormal metabolism in kidney stone patients and developing drugs for kidney stone treatment and their mechanisms of action.
Impact of Forced Diuresis on the Residual Fragment Rate After Flexible Ureteroscopy for Destruction of Kidney Stones With Laser
In view of the positive results of the numerous studies conducted on forced diuresis after extra-corporeal lithotripsy, the investigators chose to evaluate forced diuresis by injection of Furosemide associated with intravenous hydration, which has never before been the subject of a specific analysis.
STarting incrEmental Prescription of Peritoneal Dialysis
Kidney failure is fatal without dialysis. Peritoneal dialysis (PD) completed at home offers greater flexibility and autonomy for patients . However, PD is often prescribed for 24 hours/day, 7 days/week for every patient starting dialysis. This practice is not evidence-informed, may be unnecessary and potentially harmful. The STEP-PD trial aims …
Thulium Fiber Laser Prospective Trial
This is a multi-center, prospective clinical trial to assess the effect of TFL for the lithotripsy of kidney stones.
Thulium Fiber Laser (TFL) Versus Holmium MOSES Laser for Ureteroscopic Management of Kidney Stones
This study aims to compare the efficacy and safety of both types of lasers, Holmium MOSES and TFL, in management of kidney stones requiring treatment.
CaOx Stone Prevention
This single-center randomized controlled trial at Mount Sinai West will enroll 80 patients undergoing percutaneous nephrolithotomy for calcium oxalate stones. Participants will be randomized to receive either empiric therapy or selective therapy guided by 24-hour urine evaluation. The primary outcome is change in calcium oxalate supersaturation at 4 weeks, aiming …
Reducing Fluid Overload in Heart Failure Patients Using a Non-invasive, Renal Independent System
The REFORM-HF study aims to test a new technology, AquaPass, designed to assist patients experiencing symptoms of fluid overload due to Heart Failure. Patients will wear a lightweight suit that helps remove excess fluids through their sweat. The investigators want to see if the AquaPass system can remove an additional …
