Brief Summary
The purpose of this research study is to test whether administering one dose of an antibiotic before a routine shock wave lithotripsy procedure is more effective at avoiding any urinary infections compared to not taking an antibiotic. This is an important topic to study because urinary tract infections are one of the most common complications after this procedure and there is no clear standard of care regarding the use of pre-procedure antibiotics. Our study results will benefit future patients either by decreasing the rate of infections or decreasing the use of unnecessary antibiotics.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Impact of antibiotic prophylaxis on the rate of urinary tract infection
Our primary outcome will be a composite endpoint comprised of: Positive post-SWL urine culture (≥ 105 colony forming units / millilitre (CFU/ml), symptoms of cystitis (defined as new onset burning sensation or pain with voiding, frequency, urgency), or pyelonephritis or urosepsis (hospital admission with fever ≥38.5 C).
Post SWL Day 7
Secondary Outcomes (4)
Bacteriuria post-SWL (≥105 cfu/ml)
7-14 days
Symptoms of cystitis (new onset burning sensation or pain with voiding, frequency, urgency)

- Taking antibiotics for UTI or other cause;
- Requires an antibiotic post SWL;
- Suspected struvite stone (based on previous stone analysis, or partial staghorn);
- Presence of nephrostomy tube;
- Requiring cystoscopy on the day of SWL;
- Requiring ureteral stent on the day of SWL;
- Presence of indwelling urinary catheter or on regular clean intermittent catheterization (CIC);
- Presence of urinary diversion (ie: ileal conduit);
- Any history of urosepsis;
- Known allergic reaction to ciprofloxacin/quinolones;
