Breathing support study during kidney stone removal surgery
Part of Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study compares two different breathing-machine settings during a minimally invasive kidney stone removal procedure to see which works better and causes fewer lung problems. You would be randomly assigned to one setting or the other during your surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older and scheduled for elective (planned, non-emergency) retrograde intrarenal surgery under general anesthesia
- You are in reasonably good overall health (ASA status I-III, meaning no severe uncontrolled heart disease)
- You do not have severe lung disease, pregnancy, active infection, or sepsis
- You do not have morbid obesity that would make it hard to apply the breathing protocol
- You are not having another major urological procedure at the same time
- You can read and understand the consent form and provide written permission

This study tests a technique during kidney stone removal surgery (RIRS) where the surgeon fully drains the kidney system at the end of the procedure. Researchers want to see if this approach improves how quickly patients recover and reduces complications.
This study compares different ways of using a breathing machine during laparoscopic gallbladder surgery. It looks at how much pressure is put on the lungs to find the safest and most effective method for people having this type of surgery.
This study compares different ways of breathing during kidney stone surgery to reduce kidney movement, which may make the surgery more precise. It could help patients have a smoother procedure and better outcomes.
This trial tests a sensor that helps surgeons remove kidney stones while you're asleep, potentially reducing the need to pause your breathing during surgery. It aims to make the procedure safer and faster for patients.
This study compares two types of anesthesia during endoscopic kidney stone surgery to see which one helps the surgeon work more comfortably. It might help improve the procedure for patients like you.
This study looks at different ways to use a breathing machine during lung surgery to see which method helps keep oxygen levels stable and lowers the chance of lung problems after surgery. You might benefit from taking part if the right breathing method could help you recover better.
