This is a great time to make sure that you get in, get out, be very efficient with your lasering, and really don't spend a lot of extra time looking around, doing things like that. Be very efficient with that. But if all else fails, stent and come back, even if the patient is really unhappy, the reality is you did the safe thing and you're avoiding some of this.

I think we're going to find as we're measuring these pressures, that does really correlate whenever we go in without a sheath, whenever we have very narrowed ureters. I think we're going to see that that pressure goes up. Now, whether that translates into more pain, bad outcomes for the patient in terms of infection, I don't know yet, but it does seem like those at least correlate.

I would leave the stent for at least two weeks, but I would argue if I have a narrowed ureter, probably leaving a stent for two weeks anyway. So, you know, they're not sure that I'm really trading a whole lot there. And I think all those patients require follow-up anyway. So I'm going to be getting ultrasounds. I'm going to be watching for those obstructions. So...

I would say that my data is just simply too small to really make that assessment just yet. I have certainly seen patients that have a little bit more pressures in their kidneys have had more pain. Now, what I have not been able to correlate yet is how long does that pain last for? I certainly have had that experience like you're talking about in the PACU. They're definitely having more pain.

correlating that to more patient phone calls more you know need for pain medicines things like that trips to the er my data is just too much in its infancy to really say that and i think everybody's data is sort of in that in that state right now so more to come and i'm very excited to see that but i think without the real-time monitoring we'll just never know and in terms of of severe complications other than infection with increased renal pressure

Yeah, I mean, I think some of the other very severe complications are going to be ureter injuries. You know, in terms of forniceal ruptures, I mean, we know that whenever stones are there and there's a forniceal rupture, we don't have long-term damage. So I can't really believe that that's going to be true in ureteroscopy either.
