ESWL procedure, or Extracorporeal Shock Wave Lithotripsy, is a non-invasive treatment for kidney stones that uses shock waves and x-ray/ultrasounds to break down the stones and help them pass naturally. It works best for kidney stones that are small in size and even eliminates the need for major surgery in several cases. Since ESWL procedure is performed on an outpatient basis, it does not require a hospital stay and even has a short recovery period which serves as a bonus. On top of that, the risk of postoperative complications is incredibly low. Reach out to Pristyn Care to get effective ESWL treatment.

In general, the doctors suggest the following tests before ESWL treatment:
Tfhe patient is made to lie on a water-filled tub or cushion. The water or cushion prevents the surrounding organs from getting damaged.
In the process, the surgeon uses various imaging tests like x-rays or abdominal ultrasounds to locate the stone. Upon locating the stone, the surgeon releases a series of high-energy sound waves to break the stone into fine pieces. The surgeons adjust the sound waves’ power and intervals accordingly to break the stone into smaller fragments.
Once the stone is broken into smaller pieces, they are flushed out of the body.
The ESWL procedure generally takes 30-45 minutes, depending on the stone density, the medical health of the patient, and the surgeon’s expertise. ESWL procedure may not be effective for all types of kidney stones and may require multiple sessions to break the stones completely. The surgeon may also choose to insert a ureteral stent in case of a large stone. A stent enlarges the passage of the ureter for smooth movement of stones and helps reduce the pain during the stone expulsion.
All urologists provide specific instructions before ESWL procedure to help you prepare for the procedure. Listed below are the common preparation tips for the ESWL procedure.
