Abstract

Social media (SoMe) is now a core part of modern-day life with increased use among both patients and urologists. The interplay of SoMe between these two parties is complex. From a patient perspective, SoMe platforms can serve as educational tools as well as communication portals to support networks and patient communities. However, studies report the educational value of content online is often poor and may contain misinformation. For urologists, SoMe can lead to research collaborations, networking and educational content but areas of concern include the potential negative impact SoMe can have on mental health and sharing of patient images without appropriate consent. This review serves to provide an overview of the interaction between SoMe and urology practice and provide practical guidance to navigating it. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Introduction: We aimed to develop machine learning (ML) algorithms for the automated prediction of postoperative ureteroscopy outcomes for pediatric kidney stones based on preoperative characteristics. Materials and Methods: Data from pediatric patients who underwent ureteroscopy for stone treatment by a single experienced surgeon, between 2010 and 2023 in Southampton General Hospital, were retrospectively collected. Fifteen ML classification algorithms were used to investigate correlations between preoperative characteristics and postoperative outcomes: primary stone-free status (SFS, defined as stone fragments <2 mm at the end of the procedure confirmed endoscopically and no evidence of stone fragments >2 mm at Xray kidney-ureters-bladder (XR KUB) or ultrasound kidney-ureters-bladder (US KUB) at 3 months follow-up) and complications. For the task of complication and stone status, an ensemble model was made out of Bagging classifier, Extra Trees classifier, and linear discriminant analysis. Also, a multitask neural network was constructed for the simultaneous prediction of all postoperative characteristics. Finally, explainable artificial intelligence techniques were used to explain the prediction made by the best models. Results: The ensemble model produced the highest accuracy (90%) in predicting SFS, finding correlation with overall stone size (−0.205), presence of multiple stones (−0.127), and preoperative stenting (−0.102). Complications were predicted by Synthetic Minority Oversampling Technique (SMOTE) oversampled dataset (93.3% accuracy) with relation to preoperative positive urine culture (−0.060) a1nd SFS (0.003). Training ML for the multitask model, accuracies of 83.3% and 80% were respectively reached. Conclusion: ML has a great potential of assisting health care research, with possibilities to investigate dataset at a higher level. With the aid of this intelligent tool, urologists can implement their practice and develop new strategies for outcome prediction and patient counseling and informed shared decision-making. Our model reached an excellent accuracy in predicting SFS and complications in the pediatric population, leading the way to the validation of patient-specific predictive tools.

Abstract

Introduction: Kidney stones in pregnant is not a common emergency, but it is one that is extremely challenging to manage. There exists no previous survey, which maps the different practice patterns adopted. Our aim was to deliver a survey to evaluate the current status of practice patterns across different parts of the world regarding the management of stone disease in pregnancy. Methods: Through an iterative process, 19-item survey was devised. This contained the following five sections: (1) Demographics, (2) General items, (3) Diagnosis and Imaging, (4) Initial management, (5) Surgery. It was disseminated via social media and email chains. Results: A total of 355 responses were collected, and the majority (66.2%) reported no established hospital protocol for stones in pregnancy. Ultrasound was the most popular first line imaging choice (89.9%) but 8% would choose non-contrast CT. The latter was also chosen as second line choicer in 34.6% as opposed to magnetic resonance imaging. A large proportion (42.5%) had requested CT in pregnancy previously. With equivocal ultra sound results, only 19.4% would proceed to ureteroscopy (URS) but 40.9% would opt for CT. Twenty-four–48 hours were the most popular (37.6%) time period to observe before surgical intervention. Ureteral stent and nephrostomy were regarded as equally effective, and 6 weeks was most popular frequency for an exchange. Most do not use fetal heart rate monitoring intraoperatively. A total of 3.94% had previously performed percutaneous nephrolithotomy during pregnancy. Conclusion: Practice patterns vary widely for suspected kidney stones in pregnancy and use of CT appears increasingly popular. This includes when faced with equivocal ultrasound results and instead of proceeding to ureteroscopy. Most hospitals lack an established management protocol for this scenario. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

50. Adverse events related to laser fibers and laser machines during ureteroscopy and stone lithotripsy: Insights from an updated 10-year analysis of the US MAUDE database.

Abstract

Introduction: Ureteroscopy has become increasingly chosen as a treatment of choice for patients with kidney stone disease and laser as the energy source for stone lithotripsy is a key part of this. Our aim was to analyse a national database to evaluate the burden of adverse events related to laser fibers and laser machines. Methods: Search was performed of the Manufacturer User and Facility Device Experience (MAUDE) database in the United States for all events related to holmium laser fibers and holmium laser machines during ureteroscopy between 2012-2021. Information collected included the following: problem, timing, prolonged anaesthesia, early termination of procedure, injury and retained parts. Results: 699 holmium laser fiber events were reported and these had been manufactured by 13 different companies. The commonest problems were breakage outside the patient while in use (26.3%) and breakage of the laser fiber tip (21.2%). Manufacturers concluded root cause to be device failure in 8.9%. 29% of issues occurred before the laser had been activated. 5.2% of cases had to be cancelled as a result of an event. Significantly more injuries were sustained intra-operatively by operating staff compared to patients (6% vs. 0.2%, p < 0.001). All these injuries were superficial burns to the skin with the hand being the most affected body part (88.1%). Zero ocular injuries were reported. Only eight events were related to laser machines and all involved sudden hardware failure but no patient injury. Conclusions: Laser fibers are fragile. Most adverse events are due to operator error. Direct patient injury from laser fiber is scarce but operating staff should be aware of the risk of sustaining minor burns. Laser machines rarely incur problems and, in this study, did not result in any safety issues beyond need to abort the procedure due to lack of spare equipment. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
