Surgical Outcomes and Costs in Using the Shenzhen HugeMed 6.3 French Flexible Ureteroscope
Recruiting now · Not applicable
Conditions studied: Kidney Stones
In brief
Comprehensive comparative investigations between HugeMed HU30M 6.3 Fr f-URS and traditional approach f-URS devices in RIRS are lacking in an American population. The investigators aim to compare the outcomes of using the 6.3 Fr f-URS versus traditional approach (other f-URS present in our institution) to treat patients with stone burden ≤ 2.5 cm. The findings of this study will expand on the potential advantages and drawbacks of HU30M in enhancing surgical outcomes and patient safety in RIRS procedures. We hypothesize that the use of the HU30M will result in increased cost savings while providing similar stone free rates when compared to traditionally used f-URS devices.
