About this study

Extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (SWL) was first described for pediatric nephrolithiasis in 1986; SWL has been a mainstay of treatment for both renal and ureteral calculi in children . SWL is currently regarded as first-line therapy for most renal and upper ureteral calculi <2.0 cm according to the EAU/ESPU guidelines . Meanwhile, the American Urological Association (AUA) considers SWL to be a first-line option along with URS for renal or ureteral calculi <2.0 cm, and a first-line option along with PNL for renal calculi >2.0 cm . The shock waves are better transmitted and spontaneous clearance of fragmented stones in pediatric kidneys is higher than adults' kidneys; thus, SWL treatment seems likely to be more successful in the pediatric population compared to the adult population .Younger age is associated with better stone clearance in children treated with SWL, and this is related mostly to increased ureteral compliance (shorter, more elastic and distensible) and shorter skin-to-stone distance .

What is being measured

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

  1. stone free rate

    degree of stone disintegration \& expulsion form pediatric patient after going through Extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy for treatment of large pediatric renal pelvic stone burden more than 2 cm

    Measured: 2 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. complications associated with pediatric SWL

    Study complications associated with pediatric SWL with large stone burden > 2cm

    Measured: 2 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy in people with Determine the Efficacy and Safety of SWL in Renal Stones Larger Than 2 cm in Pediatric Age Group, run by Sohag University at 1 site in Egypt.

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 1 inclusion and 1 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 1 Sep 2022. 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 Egypt. 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: 2 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT05293613, which also lists 3 linked publications.

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 1 Sep 2022.
