In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

Urinary stone disease is globally prevalent with rising incidence and recurrence, imposing heavy socioeconomic burdens. Flexible ureteroscopy has advanced stone treatment. Single-use flexible ureteroscopes (su-fURS) combined with negative pressure ureteral access sheath (NPUAS), recommended by urology guidelines, improve surgical safety and stone-free rates and can treat stones โ‰ค3 cm. However, su-fURS has poorer image quality, bleeding during lithotripsy may blur vision, frequently impairing efficiency and safety. Norepinephrine (NE), a tyrosine-derived sympathomimetic amine, mainly activates ฮฑ1 and ฮฒ1 receptors. Doses above 3 ฮผg/min trigger predominant ฮฑ1-mediated vasoconstriction of arteries and veins. It can act on mucosal surfaces via irrigation fluid, making it favorable for initial hemostasis of injured mucosa. Firstly, this study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of low-co
