New suction tool tested for faster kidney stone clearance

NCT ID NCT07286071

Summary

This study compared two medical devices used during kidney stone surgery. Researchers tested whether a newer suction sheath helps remove stone fragments better than the traditional sheath. 140 adults with single kidney stones up to 20mm were randomly assigned to receive surgery with one of the two devices. The study measured how completely stones were cleared, surgery time, and complications like infections.
