Clinical Effect of Electronic Retrograde Intrarenal Surgery for Upper Uri-nary Tract Stones
Objective To study the effect of electronic retrograde intrarenal surgery(RIRS)in patients with upper uri-nary tract stones(UUTS).Methods A total of eighty UUTS patients treated in Xinyi Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine from June 2017 to December 2022 were randomly selected as the study objects and were divided into con-trol group(40 cases treated by percutaneous nephrolithotripsy)and observation group(40 cases treated by RIRS)ac-cording to random number table.Perioperative indexes,stone clearance rate and incidence of complications were com-pared between the two groups.Results The intraoperative blood loss in the observation group was(9.22±1.12)mL and the elevated level of C-reactive protein was(10.17±2.57)mg/L,which were lower than those in the control group[(17.33±3.36)mL and(15.12±3.26)mg/L],the operation time was(68.71±5.42)min,which was longer than that of the control group[(55.16±5.12)min],the duration of getting out of bed after surgery was(13.86±2.21)h and the duration of hospitalization was(5.26±0.82)d,which were shorter than that of the control group[(24.05±4.35)h and(8.51±1.97)d],and the differences were significantly significant(t=14.482,7.542,11.494,13.209,9.633,all P<0.05).There was no statistical difference in the stone clearance rate at 3,30 and 90 d between the two groups(all P>0.05).The complica-tion rate of observation group(5.00%)was lower than that of control group(20.00%),and the difference was signifi-cantly significant(χ2=4.114,P<0.05).Conclusion UUTS patients receiving RIRS treatment can reduce the amount of blood loss,and the complications are less,and the patients recover time faster.
