Urine test after kidney stone surgery
Part of Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
This trial checks whether a simple test on the first urine after kidney stone surgery can help find infections early. It only includes adults having a specific type of stone removal who are infection-free before surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You are 18 years old or older.
- You need a surgery called percutaneous nephrolithotomy to remove kidney stones.
- You do not have an active urinary tract infection before surgery.
- You do not have stones in both kidneys.
