SILICONE VERSUS POLYURETHANE URETERAL STENTS DURING ACUTE RENAL COLIC
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
From June 2018 to October 2018, patients from two distinct clinical centers were prospectively enrolled in the study and stratified (non-randomly) into either control group A, patients who received polyurethane stents (RĂ¼sch, Teleflex), or experimental group B, patients who received silicone stents (Cook Medical). Each participant completed a survey one hour after stent insertion, in the middle of the stent dwelling period, and before stent removal or ureteroscopy noting body pain and overactive bladder via the visual analog scale pain (VASP) and overactive bladder (OAB) awareness tool, respectively. Additionally, the successfulness of stent placement, hematuria, number of unplanned visits, and stent encrustation rates were assessed within each group.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- body pain [4 weeks]
At each follow-up appointment, patients completed a survey in which the visual analog scale pain (VASP) was filled
- bladder overactivity [4 weeks]
At each follow-up appointment, patients completed a survey in which the "bladder awareness tool" (VASP) was filled
