Trial summary

Retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRC) is used as standard treatment for stones less than 2 cm. In some cases, the ureteral access sheath cannot be placed due to ureteral stricture. In this case, a double j stent (DJ) is placed to passively dilate the ureter, and the RIRC is postponed for post-dilatation. Read more about this study

About this study

Retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRC) is used as standard treatment for stones less than 2 cm. In some cases, the ureteral access sheath cannot be placed due to ureteral stricture. In this case, a double j stent (DJ) is placed to passively dilate the ureter, and the RIRC is postponed for post-dilatation. The aim of the study is to determine the optimal time for RIRC operation in cases where a double j stent was placed for passive dilatation.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Stone, Kidney and Urolithiasis, 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 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Apr 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 Turkey (Türkiye). 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?

BMI in kg/m^2 (time frame: 3 Months). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT05340088, 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?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 21 Apr 2022; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 2 Nov 2026.
