Study Summary

This trial aims to compare the effectiveness of Moses 2.0 pulse modulation technology with the standard high powered Holmium Laser lithotripsy in treating kidney and ureteral stones. The study will

Who is the study for?

This trial is for individuals with kidney or ureteral stones measuring between 6mm and less than 20mm, who are undergoing a procedure called ureteroscopy. The study aims to include those who require stone removal using laser technology.Check my eligibility

What is being tested?

The study compares two methods of breaking down kidney stones: the Moses 2.0 pulse modulation technology versus the standard high-powered Holmium Laser without this feature. It will assess which method is more efficient in terms of operating time, laser usage, energy required, and success in eliminating stones.See study design

What are the potential side effects?

While specific side effects aren't listed for this trial, typical risks associated with laser lithotripsy may include discomfort during urination, bleeding around the stone fragments, infection risk from the procedure itself or passing stone fragments.
