Introducing STONE PASS
A community education effort to improve ureteral stone discussions between patient & provider
A tool to communicate probability based on outcomes of similar patients (size, location, & #PROMIS pain)
It's all about decision making

It can be done!
Non-COVID (I hope) Pt - 10 mm prox +++ renal
Spinal, 15F sheath, 45 min proc, stent on string

This is excellent.
We are adopting with readily available refinements in following tweets
Uro Gods forgive me but we all know the best AUA abstracts don't get accepted
Maybe if I was a better writer ...?
HIGHLY relevant for telehealth

Endoluminal Prioritisation...
@MSemins @BEkidneystone @shah_ojas
Hope this is useful to you guys in USA.
Thanks to @BAUSendourology committee for help with these.
Further info and advice to @BAUSurology and patients coming in website soon
Take care everyone
AUA Rejected but relevant abstract #3
Combining PROMIS scores with hydronephrosis (CT in this data but U/S should be equivalent)
Greatly improves sensitivity at cost of specificity
/5
AUA Rejected but relevant abstract summary
Stone progression on imaging is a good
PROMIS pain is specific for persistence
PROMIS pain + hydronephrosis is sensitive
PROMIS pain score is built into stonepassapp.com or at source healthmeasures.net/
Hope this helps
