MEDICAL EXPULSIVE TREATMENT OF DISTAL URETERAL STONE USING XXXX .

@entity1 @entity137 @entity9940
BACKGROUND: Many minimally invasive interventional techniques as well as expectant treatment exist for the management of lower ureteric calculi. This study was conducted to evaluate th efficacy of @entity9940 as an expulsive pharmacologic therapy for the treatment of distal uretern stone. METHODS: This randomized control trial included 100 @entity1 over 18 years of age wit stone Size > or = mm in distal 1/3 of ureter. @entity1 were randomly assigned into two groups (A _ B Group A @entity1 were given Capsule @entity9940 0.4 mg, 1 daily up to 4 weeks while group B @entity1 were given placebo, 1 Capsule daily up to 4 weeks. The primary endpoint was expulsio rate. A written informed consent was taken from all the @entity1 . Expulsion time, need for analgesics, need for hospitalization and @entity137 were secondary endpoints. RESULTS: A total of 49 @entity1 in group A and 48 @entity1 in group B reported back, therefore 97 out of 10 @entity1 were evaluated. Mean age of the @entity1 was 36.34 years (range 18-57 years). Mea stone size was 5.78 mm (range 4-8 mm) in greatest dimension. A stone expulsion rate of 85.71C (42 @entity1 ) was noted in group A and 54.20% (26 @entity1 ) in group B. Group A revealed statistically significant advantage in term of stone expulsion rate (p=0.032). Considering expulsio time in days group A showed statistically significant advantage (p=0.015). Regarding age, se) stone size and stone lateralization (right/left), there was no significant difference between th group A and B. No @entity137 were noted in both the groups. CONCLUSION: By usin @entity9940 a higher stone expulsion rates can be achieved in a shorter time. More randomize control trials are required to establish @entity9940 as a standard medical expulsive treatment fc
