Kidney stone passing or surgery?
If you suffer from kidney stones (a condition called nephrolithiasis), Stone Pass helps you make decisions with your doctor — through real data about what happened with people who had a kidney stone similar to yours.
**How It Works **
1. Enter information about your kidney stone (also known as a calculus of kidney or a ureteric stone)
- Enter your stone's size and location, as given by your healthcare provider
- Take a quick assessment to measure your kidney stone pain
2. Get information to make a more informed decision
- See what percentage of people tried to pass their stone
- See how many of those were successful in kidney stone passing
- See how your pain compares to others with similar stones
- See how your stone's size compares to all people with a stone
Hopefully, you only have a kidney stone once in your life. But this means that you are forced to make decisions about your care without personal experience. The three most important factors in stone decision making are the size and location of the stone and pain severity. You can’t change the stone’s size or location, but you can understand how kidney stone pain affects decision making.
Stone Pass will show how your stone compares to others, what kidney stone treatment decisions they made, and how their stone resolved. Whether your kidney stone passes on its own or requires treatment such as lithotripsy, ureteroscopy or percutaneous nephrolithotomy, our goal is that you use this information to communicate more effectively with your care provider and make the best decision for your specific situation.
