NCT02683993

Brief Summary

Twenty (20) subjects presenting with a renal stone and candidates for FURS (flexible ureteroscopic renal surgery) will undergo a single FURS procedure for a kidney stone as part of the study, using the study device. These subjects will be randomized into stone breaking treatment or stone dusting.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (5)

  • Stone Clearance

    stone clearance will be confirmed by CT or X-Ray at 1 month follow up.

    Stone clearance based on 1 month follow-up imaging data

  • Post-procedure Catheterization

    Post-procedure catheterization by group

    Post-procedure through hospital discharge; typically discharge occurs on the same day or 1 day post procedure

  • Procedure Time

    Duration (in minutes) of the procedure as an indicator for treatment efficiency.

    during the procedure

  • Usage of Alternative Stone Extracting Devices

    The need of the surgeon to use baskets, forceps or saline flushing to achieve complete stone clearance. This outcome can influence both procedure time and further complication.

    as measured during the procedure

  • Hospital Stay

    Hospital duration was measured to evaluate treatment efficiency

    Procedure through hospital discharge

Secondary Outcomes (6)

  • Number of Participants With Intraoperative Complications

    Intraoperative

  • Visibility During Procedure

    Intraprocedural

  • Number of Participants With Occurrence of Retropulsion

    Intraoperative

  • Ability to Reach Stone Fragments

    Intraoperative

  • Damage to Scope or Fiber

    Intraoperative

  • +1 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (2)

Stone breaking

EXPERIMENTAL

Lithotripsy will be performed using the Lumenis Pulse 120H holmium laser system with low frequency parameters.

Device: Lumenis Pulse 120H holmium laser system and 200 DFL ball tip fiber

Stone dusting

EXPERIMENTAL

Lithotripsy will be performed using the Lumenis Pulse 120H holmium laser system with high frequency parameters.

Device: Lumenis Pulse 120H holmium laser system and 200 DFL ball tip fiber

Interventions

The Lumenis Pulse P120H will be utilized in high and low frequencies according to subjects group allocation.
