R K Hospital's Stone clinic
offering....
1)Stone Evaluation and Diagnosis: The clinic will assess patients who present with symptoms suggestive of kidney stones or other urinary tract stones. This evaluation may involve imaging studies such as X-rays, ultrasound, or CT scans to visualize the stones and determine their size, location, and composition.
2)Treatment Planning: Based on the findings of the evaluation, the clinic will develop a personalized treatment plan tailored to the patient's specific condition and needs. This plan may include one or more of the following treatment modalities:
*Medical Management: Prescribing medications to help manage pain associated with kidney stones and to facilitate the passage of stones.
*Lithotripsy: Extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) or other forms of lithotripsy may be used to break up kidney stones into smaller pieces that can pass more easily through the urinary tract.
*Ureteroscopy: A minimally invasive procedure in which a thin, flexible scope is inserted into the urethra and passed up into the urinary tract to locate and remove stones using small instruments.
*Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy (PCNL): A surgical procedure in which a small incision is made in the back to access the kidney directly and remove larger stones.
*Open Surgery: In rare cases, open surgery may be necessary to remove very large or complex kidney stones.
3)Stone Prevention Counseling: The clinic will provide guidance on lifestyle modifications, dietary changes, and fluid intake recommendations to help prevent the recurrence of kidney stones in the future. This may include dietary adjustments to reduce the risk of stone formation and the use of medications to manage underlying metabolic factors contributing to stone formation.
4)Follow-up Care: Patients will receive ongoing monitoring and follow-up care to assess treatment outcomes, evaluate for recurrence of stones, and make any necessary adjustments to the treatment plan.
5)Patient Education and Support: The clinic will offer educational resources and support to help patients better understand their condition, treatment options, and strategies for stone prevention.
