NCT ID: NCT05627622 Recruiting - Urinary Tract Stone Clinical Trials

Effectiveness of WhatsApp Education and Support Messages for Urolithiasis Prevention

StoneApp
Start date: January 1, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Kidney and ureteral stones are a common problem in primary care practice with increasing prevalence over the last few decades. Prevention of recurrent stones (which are usually composed primarily of calcium oxalate) is aimed at decreasing the concentrations of the lithogenic factors. There are several metabolic and dietary treatable components. In all patients with urolithiasis, adequate fluid intake and lower body mass index are key components to reducing the risk of recurrent stones. For most patients, additional beneficial dietary modifications are increasing intake of fruits and vegetables which are rich in potassium, and reducing intake of candies and sweetened juices which are rich in sucrose and fructose. In addition, for patients who have been prescribed medications, adherence to medication may become an important issue over the long term. Mobile technology has the potential to optimize health care and patient's adherence, especially through personal education and dissemination of health information. One of the most common technologies available on mobile is the WhatsApp Messenger® application. WhatsApp is a freeware messaging service; it allows streamlining patient-provider communication via text and voice messages, video clips and images. The research hypotheses are, first, that use of WhatsApp to disseminate information regarding stones preventive measures will have a substantial positive effect on follow-up compliance and on patient's adherence to the preventive measures. Second, the investigators expect reduction in cumulative stone recurrence rate.

NCT ID: NCT05317273 Recruiting - Urosepsis Clinical Trials

Urosepsis in Patients With Urinary Tract Calculi Receiving Surgical Intervention

Start date: August 1, 2022
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Urosepsis is one of major cause of the overall sepsis leading to high morbidity and mortality, which commonly resulted from urinary tract calculi. The investigator aim to identified the incidence and risk factors of urosepsis in the patients with urinary tract calculi underwent surgical intervention in tertiary-care university hospital.

NCT ID: NCT03257306 Recruiting - Kidney Stone Clinical Trials

Magnetic Ureteral Stent Symptoms - a Comparison to Standard Ureteral Stent as Perceived By the Patient (MAGUSS)

MAGUSS
Start date: November 9, 2018
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The specific aim of this study is to validate our hypothesis that the magnetic ureteral stents have the same amount of adverse effects as the more commonly used non-magnetic ureteral stents. If this hypothesis would be confirmed then the usage of magnetic ureteral stents would be justified for both reducing patient discomfort by way of fewer cystoscopies and possibly also decreasing the overall expenditures of treatment.
