Smart tracking may boost kidney stone shockwave success
NCT ID NCT07272720
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 30, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study compares two versions of a shockwave machine for breaking kidney stones: one with stone tracking and one without. About 126 adults with a single kidney stone (6-15 mm) will be randomly assigned to either group. The goal is to see if the tracking feature helps more people become stone-free or have only tiny leftover fragments (4 mm or smaller).
