What this trial measures
- Pain score post ureteroscopy procedure until stent removal determined by the primary operating team. Stent will be on a stringStarting post-operatively, daily, until stent is removed (estimated 7-14 days)
Post-operatively, patient will be contacted by study coordinators every day until stent is removed (usually 7-14 days after the surgery) to scale their stent pain on a scale from 1-5 as following: No pain: 1; Mild pain with no need for additional medication: 2; Mild pain with need for additional medication (anticholinergics): 3; Moderate stent pain (requiring narcotics): 4; Severe stent pain (requiring ER visit): 5.
