About this study

Official title: A Novel Method for Stone Area Sterilization During Retrograde Intrarenal Surgery (RIRS)

In this prospective randomised controlled study, investigators aims to evaluate the effect of 80 mg gentamicin added to 3 liters of irrigation fluid on stone free rate, intraoperative and postoperative complications during RIRS for kidney stones.

Read the detailed description

Current advances in endoscopic technology for the upper urinary tract have expanded the diagnosis and treatment options for kidney stones. Retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRS), defined as the use of effective lithotripters such as flexible ureteroscopes (fURSs) and holmium:yttrium aluminum garnet (holmium:YAG) lasers for intrarenal pelvic diseases, is a safe and effective, versatile and minimally invasive procedure for the kidney. . Current guidelines for the treatment of kidney stones recommend RIRS first for stones <2 cm. and RIRS as one of the first two options for stones >2 cm.. In studies dealing with kidney stones larger than 2 cm, the RIRS showed a cumulative stone-free success of 91%, but a complication rate of 8.6%. Of these, 44% were found to be ≥ Clavien 3 complications. In kidney stone endourological treatments, stone culture was found to be more effective in predicting complications than midstream urine culture. Even if the preoperative midstream urine culture is sterile, complication rates increase if there is bacterial growth in the stone culture in kidney stone surgery. Therefore, although complication rates are generally low, several concerns have arisen. In our study, the investigators aims to evaluate the effect of 80 mg gentamicin added to 3 liters of irrigation fluid on stone free rate and complications during RIRS for kidney stones.

What participants receive

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

  • Addition of gentamicin to irrigation fluid during RIRSProcedure or surgery

    During the RIRS, the access sheath is placed first for security. Then, the stone in the kidney is detected with flexible URS and fragmented with a holmium laser. In this group of patients, 80 mg of gentamicin will be added to 3 liters of irrigation fluid while the stone is being fragmented.

  • Only irrigation fluid during RIRSProcedure or surgery

    During the RIRS, the access sheath is placed first for security. Then, the stone in the kidney is detected with flexible URS and fragmented with a holmium laser. In this group of patients, only irrigation fluid will be used while the stone is fragmented.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Addition of gentamicin to irrigation fluid during RIRS and Only irrigation fluid during RIRS in people with Kidney Stone, run by Ankara Training and Research Hospital at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

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

What does the primary outcome measure?

Rate of postoperative complications (time frame: One year). 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 NCT05202158, which also lists 2 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?
