Treatment of Asymptomatic Renal Calculi in Recurrent UTIs: a Prospective Observational Cohort Study
In Brief
An observational study evaluating None - observational for Urinary Tract Infections and Kidney Stone. Completed, enrolled 94 participants across 6 sites in 2 countries.
Detailed Summary
This study will assess patients who have recurrent urinary tract infections and kidney stones which are not blocking the kidney or causing other problems. Currently, we don't know if taking out these stones will improve recurrent urinary tract infections or not. Patients will make a decision with their surgeon about removing or monitoring their stone(s). Whether or not their infections continue with surgery or monitoring will be noted, and this information may help to inform future treatment decisions. The purpose of this study is to assess if treatment of these asymptomatic stones affects the rate of recurrent urinary tract infections.
