First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 15, 2026 · Updated 25 times

Summary

This study looks at whether a blood test that measures endotoxin levels can help predict infections after a type of kidney stone surgery called percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL). Researchers will test blood samples from 150 adults before and after surgery to see if higher endotoxin levels are linked to fever or other signs of infection. The goal is to create a risk scoring system to help doctors identify patients who may need extra monitoring or treatment.
