ComfiJ versus standard stent for kidney stone recovery
Part of Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial compares two types of temporary drainage tubes (stents) placed in the ureter—the tube that carries urine from kidney to bladder—after surgery to remove kidney or ureteral stones. The study measures which stent causes fewer uncomfortable symptoms during the 2-week recovery period.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- Surgery findings show you need a temporary stent (drainage tube) for about 2 weeks
- Able to read and answer Arabic symptom questions about your recovery
- Not pregnant, not breastfeeding, and able to attend follow-up visits

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.
This study compares whether a special anti-reflux stent causes fewer symptoms than a standard DJ stent in children treated for kidney stones. The goal is to find which stent is more comfortable and has fewer side effects.
This study measures a new score called the pelvic floor fatigue index, which looks at how tired the pelvic floor muscles get, in people who have a ureteral stent placed after kidney stone surgery. The goal is to see if this score can help predict or prevent bladder problems that stents can cause.
This study looks at whether placing a temporary tube (called a stent) in the ureter after kidney stone surgery is always necessary. Some patients get a stent to help urine flow, but it can cause discomfort. The trial aims to see if skipping the stent is safe and leads to fewer symptoms. If you are having kidney stone surgery, participating might help determine the best approach for recovery.
This trial is looking at whether placing a small tube (stent) in the ureter before a type of keyhole surgery for kidney stones helps with outcomes like pain and success of the procedure. It aims to see if this pre-treatment makes the surgery easier, potentially reducing complications and improving stone removal.
