Magnet pulls stent, spares kids second surgery

NCT ID NCT04384939

Summary

This study tested a new magnetic ureteral stent in children who needed one for kidney problems or transplants. The goal was to see if the stent could be safely removed in a clinic using a magnet, avoiding a second procedure under general anesthesia. Researchers also looked at costs, pain, and parent satisfaction compared to the standard method.
