Ureteral double-J stent tolerance study
Part of Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years old or older.
- You need a ureteral double-J stent placed.
- Your stent is expected to stay in for less than 6 months.
- You do not have an active cancer diagnosis.
- You can understand and answer a short questionnaire about your symptoms.

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.
This study looks at urinary tract infections that can happen after a stent is removed. It will compare approaches around stent removal to see how to lower the chance of infection afterward.
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 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 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 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.
