AIM: The aim of this study was to develop a step-by-step guide to aid nurses in the safe removal of ureteric stents. Examination of the literature related to at what timespan after the operation the stents should be removed and whether antibiotic cover and/or precautionary investigations such as stentogram are necessary prior to stent removal.
METHOD: A purpose-designed questionnaire was sent to consultants and stoma nurses to assess current practice regarding the removal of stents.
RESULTS: Findings show that opinion was divided on how long the stents should remain in situ postoperatively, whether or not a stentogram is necessary prior to stent removal to check for healing and evidence of anastomosis leak, and whether or not patients require prophylactic antibiotic cover.
CONCLUSION: It is not currently possible to formulate a standard policy for the procedure of ureteric stent removal because consultants have varying ideas on their management. Therefore, further research on ureteric stent removal is required to ensure evidence-based practice.
