NCT03794102 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 150

Last updated 2019-01-04

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine the rate of absorption of fluids (water or saline) during ureteroscopy and to assess the effects on electrolyte levels. The investigators also want to measure how much better the urologist can see the ureter based on the type of irrigation fluid that is used.

Conditions

Interventions

OTHER

Water

Sterile water irrigation from standard sterile water bags will be used during ureteroscopy. Pulsed irrigation of the irrigant fluid with hand-held syringes will be used in all cases according to standard practice in order to visualize the upper urinary tract during the ureteroscopy procedure.

OTHER

Saline

0.9% saline irrigation from standard saline bags will be used during ureteroscopy. Pulsed irrigation of the irrigant fluid with hand-held syringes will be used in all cases according to standard practice in order to visualize the upper urinary tract during the ureteroscopy procedure.
