NCT03257306 · Status: UNKNOWN · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 170

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The specific aim of this study is to validate our hypothesis that the magnetic ureteral stents have the same amount of adverse effects as the more commonly used non-magnetic ureteral stents. If this hypothesis would be confirmed then the usage of magnetic ureteral stents would be justified for both reducing patient discomfort by way of fewer cystoscopies and possibly also decreasing the overall expenditures of treatment.
