NCT ID NCT07568990

First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study tests two different tubes used during kidney stone surgery to see which one works better. One tube has suction to remove stone pieces and fluid, while the other does not. Researchers will track how many patients are stone-free after surgery and compare complication rates. The goal is to find out if the suction tube leads to better outcomes.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance

ureteral access sheath (device)

What this could lead to

If the aspirating sheath works better, it could make kidney stone surgery safer and more effective by removing stone fragments and reducing pressure during the procedure.

What could go wrong

This is a small, early-stage study with only 70 patients, so results may not apply to everyone. The aspirating sheath might not improve outcomes or could have unexpected risks.
