Receives: Procedure: flexible ureteroscope urolithiasis

What is being measured

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

  1. Success rate of ureteral access sheath insertion

    Proportion of successful ureteral implantation, success rate = number of successful cases/total number of cases

    Measured: From enrollment to completion of surgery

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. The condition of ureter injury

    The ureter was observed at exit of the ureteroscope and graded according to Traxer's proposed grading system.

    Measured: 24 hours

  2. Stone clearance rate

    Residual stones less than 4 mm are considered to be free of residual stones.

    Measured: up to 8 weeks.

  3. Operation time

    The duration of the operation from start to finish.

    Measured: 24 hours

  4. The incidence of surgical complications

    The occurrence of postoperative fever, urogenic sepsis and septic shock

    Measured: 7 days
