PURPOSE: Since renal pelvis pressure is directly related to irrigation flowrate and outflow resistance, knowledge of outflow resistance associated with commonly used drainage devices could help guide the selection of the type and size of ureteral access sheath or catheter for individual ureteroscopic cases. This study aims to quantitatively measure outflow resistance for different drainage devices utilized during ureteroscopy.
METHODS: With measured irrigation flowrate and renal pelvis pressure, outflow resistance was calculated using a hydrodynamic formula. After placement of a drainage device into a silicone kidney-ureter model, a disposable ureteroscope with a 9.5-Fr outer diameter was inserted with its tip positioned at the renal pelvis. Irrigation was delivered through the ureteroscope from varying heights above the renal pelvis. Renal pelvis pressure was measured directly from the port of the kidney model using a pressure sensor (Opsens, Canada). Outflow resistance was determined by plotting flowrate versus renal pelvis pressure. All trials were performed in triplicate for each drainage device inserted.
RESULTS: Flowrate was linearly dependent on renal pelvis pressure for all drainage devices tested. Outflow resistance values were 0.2, 1.1, 1.4, 3.9, and 6.5 cmH2O/[ml/min] for UAS 13/15 Fr, UAS 11/13 Fr, UAC 6 Fr, UAC 4.8 Fr, and UAC 4.0 Fr, respectively, across the range of commonly used irrigation flowrates.
CONCLUSIONS: In this study, outflow resistance of different ureteral drainage devices was quantitatively measured. This knowledge can be useful when selecting which type and size of drainage device to insert to maintain safe renal pelvis pressure during ureteroscopy.
