About this study

Official title: Comparison of Surgical Outcomes in the Treatment of Renal Stones Larger Than 1 Centimeters Between MPCNL and RIRS: a Single-center, Randomized, Prospective Study

The objective of this research is to investigate the surgical outcomes of minimally invasive percutaneous nephrolithotomy(MPCNL) and retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRS)for patients with renal stone larger than 1cm.

Read the detailed description

It is pointed out that there is the disadvantage of conventional PCNL technique which showed dramatic decrease in Hb and renal damage even though it has some advantages of a short operation time and a high stone-free rate. MPCNL and RIRS has recently been considered as very efficacious methods.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

    Also called retrograde intrerenal surgery

    • RIRS arm
    • Use of flexible ureteroscopy to access and remove renal stones without percutaneous nephrostomy tract
  • MPCNLDevice

    Also called minimally invasive percuntaneous nephrolithotomy, mini-perc

    • MPCNL arm
    • A new technique that reduced the size of percutaneous tract to make renal stone into small pieces.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. stone-free rate

    We will check the non-contrast CT scan at postoperative 1month when the patient visit the outpatient department. If the patient does not have any residual stone fragment, it will be reported to 'success.' Otherwise, we will measure the size of each stone of residual fragments.

    Measured: postoperative 1 month

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. pain

    Visual analogue scale will be measured: 0 (no pain) -> 10 (the most worst pain ever experienced)

    Measured: postoperative 1 day

  2. hemoglobin drop

    preoperative Hb level - Hb level of immediate postoperative 1 day

    Measured: postoperative 1 day

  3. occurrence of complications

    occurrence of stricture in non-contrast CT scan history taking of hematuria or fever

    Measured: postoperative 1 day, and the postop 1month at OPD

  4. hospital stay

    calculation of days of hospital stay

    Measured: postoperative 1 month

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing RIRS and MPCNL in people with Renal Stone, run by Seoul National University Hospital at 1 site in South Korea.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Jun 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in South Korea. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

stone-free rate (time frame: postoperative 1 month). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 23 Jun 2015.
