NCT ID NCT05701098
First seen May 07, 2026 · Last updated May 20, 2026 · Updated 4 times
Summary
This study tested a device called Break Wave™ that uses sound waves to break kidney stones into tiny pieces. 64 adults with stones in the upper urinary tract took part. The goal was to see if the device is safe and can break stones into fragments small enough to pass on their own (4 mm or smaller). Participants had the procedure, a telehealth check at 2 weeks, and an imaging scan at about 10 weeks.
