Questionnaire score for symptoms from a ureter stent
Part of Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial is developing a Canada-based way to score how bothersome a ureter (kidney-to-bladder) stent symptoms feel. It may help doctors better understand and treat stent side effects.

This study looks at how uncomfortable or bothersome ureteral stents (small tubes placed in the urinary tract after kidney stone treatment) can be, and whether using imaging to pick the right stent length reduces symptoms. You'll answer questions about any stent-related discomfort you experience.
This study looks at why some people have trouble tolerating a ureteral double-J stent, a small tube placed in the ureter to help urine drain. Researchers will ask about symptoms to find risk factors for poor tolerance, which may help future patients.
This trial is testing three different medicines to see if they can reduce common symptoms like pain and frequent urination caused by a ureteral stent placed after kidney stone surgery. If you are between 19 and 80 years old and had a stent placed during ureteroscopy, you may be able to join.
This study compares a regular double J stent with a newer Comfi J stent to see which causes fewer symptoms after ureteroscopy for kidney stones. It may help patients who need a temporary stent choose one with less discomfort.
This trial compares two types of ureteral stents (small tubes that help urine drain from the kidney to the bladder) in children having surgery for kidney stones. The goal is to see which type causes fewer symptoms like pain or discomfort.
This study tests a modified double J stent to see how it affects your quality of life. If you have kidney or ureter stones, this trial may help improve comfort during treatment.
