What participants receive

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

  • Robot assisted pyelolithotomyProcedure or surgery

    A 12-mm camera port is placed at the level of the umbilicus and lateral; this port is moved farther laterally in morbidly obese patients to allow for the instruments to reach the target organs. Two 8-mm robotic trocars are placed under direct vision and a 12-mm assistant port is placed in the midline a 5-8 cm above the umbilicus. For right-sided stones, an additional 5-mm port is placed in the midline just below the xiphoid process for liver retraction. Placement of the trocars can be changed according to surgeon preference. After reflecting the colon medially, the renal pelvis will be dissected and identified, a flexible cystoscope will be inserted via an assisted trocar and introduced into the renal pelvis through a minor incision. The kidney stones will then be extracted with a basket and either removed via the port or placed in a specimen retrieval bag.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
PCNLExperimentalPercutant nephrolithotomy is a standard procedure for stones treatment over 2 cm.The puncture will be performed with an 18-G nephrostomy needle. The access thus gained guaranteed the transpapillary route of the percutaneous tract, a basic condition for the prevention of bleeding. Subsequently, following withdrawal of the puncture needle and urine drainage, a flexible guidewire will be inserted and advanced to the upper calyx or ureter.

Robot assisted pyelolithotomyExperimentalRobot assisted pyelolithotomy, is a new technique to remove stones of more than 2 cm. A 12-mm camera port is placed at the level of the umbilicus and lateral. Two 8-mm robotic trocars are placed under direct vision and a 12-mm assistant port is placed in the midline a 5-8 cm above the umbilicus.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Robot assisted pyelolithotomy in people with Renal Stone, run by Zealand University Hospital at 1 site in Denmark.

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 6 inclusion and 2 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 17 Feb 2020. 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 Denmark. 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?

Postoperative hospital stay (time frame: 30 days). 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 17 Feb 2020.
