Trial Outcomes

Change in Post-ureteroscopy Stent-induced Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms.

Measured through the use of the ureteral stent symptom questionnaire. Patients reported symptoms on a scale of 1 to 5 (1 being the absence of symptoms and 5 being very debilitating symptoms). The questionnaire was administered a couple days post-op and once again several weeks later. The mean difference (baseline minus 3 months) on this continuous scale was used for this outcome measure. (NCT01381120)
Timeframe: Baseline and three months.

Change in Post-ureteroscopy Stent-induced Pain

Measured through the use of the ureteral stent symptom questionnaire. Patients reported pain on a scale of 0 to 10 (0 being the absence of pain and 10 being the most excruciating pain of their life). The questionnaire was administered a couple days post-op and once again several weeks later. The mean difference (baseline minus 3 months) on this continuous scale was used for this outcome measure.
