Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy Without a Ureteral Catheter
Conventional Percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) surgery requires the patient to first undergo retrograde transurethral ureteroscopic insertion of the ureteral catheter in the lithotomy position, and then change the patient to the prone position. However, repeated operation on the ureter can bring about immediate and long-term negative effects, such as ureteral false …
Total Tubeless Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy Without a Ureteral Catheter
Total tubeless Percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) is a modified surgical method of PCNL surgery, that is, there is no indwelling nephrostomy tube and double-J tube during PCNL surgery. Compared with traditional PCNL surgery, it has the advantages of reducing pain, shortening operation time and reducing operation cost. Since this procedure was …
Effect of Laughter Yoga on Surgical Fear and Anxiety in Patients Applied Before Ureteroscopy
Surgical fear is a situation where a person experiences excessive fear of surgical procedures. This fear can negatively affect the person's normal life and is usually more intense in the pre-operative period. The causes of surgical fear include factors such as previous negative surgical experiences, lack of sufficient information, post-operative …
Comparison Between Ureterorenoscopy With Lithotripsy Alone Versus Combination With Hydrogel for Kidney Stone Removal
The incidence of kidney stones (urolithiasis) has surged in both developing and developed countries, affecting approximately 15% of the global population. From 2010 to 2019, diagnoses of kidney and ureteral stones rose by 8% in Germany, 26% in France, and 15% in England. Correspondingly, the number of surgical stone removal …
ILY Robotic System vs Manual Flexible Ureteroscopy for Kidney Stone Treatment
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the efficacy, ergonomics, and safety of robotic versus manual flexible ureteroscopy (fURS) for kidney stone treatment in adult patients undergoing laser lithotripsy. Does robotic-assisted lithotripsy using the ILY® robot have the same efficacy as the manual fURS in treating kidney stones? …
O. Formigenes Colonization in Calcium Oxalate Kidney Stone Disease
The goal of this trial is to test if colonization with the gut bacteria Oxalobacter formigenes leads to a reduction in urinary oxalate excretion in patients with calcium oxalate kidney stone disease. The study will recruit adult participants with a history of calcium oxalate kidney stones who are not colonized …
GI Oxalate Absorption
This study aims to learn more about how oxalate, a compound found in many foods, may affect a person's chances of forming kidney stones. Active participation in this study will last for around one week. For the first two days, subjects will be asked to eat a special diet at …
NSAIDs Stent Study
This is a pilot study to (1) evaluate the effect of Ketorolac on inflammatory response and its impact on stent related symptoms in patients undergoing stent placement procedure and (2) assess feasibility of recruitment, randomization, assessment procedures and implementation of the study intervention.
Gut Oxalate Absorption in Calcium Oxalate Stone Disease
The goal of this clinical trial study is to test if patients with idiopathic calcium oxalate kidney stones have an increased absorption of dietary oxalate, which would lead to increased urinary excretion of oxalate. The study will recruit adult patients with a history of calcium oxalate kidney stones and healthy …
Endogenous Oxalate Synthesis in Idiopathic Calcium Oxalate Kidney Stone Disease
The goal of this clinical trial study is to test if patients with idiopathic calcium oxalate kidney stones have an increased production of oxalate by the body, which would lead to increased urinary excretion of oxalate. The study will recruit adult patients with a history of calcium oxalate kidney stones …
