Table 3.
Results of NaCl irrigation group. F max > 1 s = the highest force measured in newton (N) for more than 1 second. In the ureteral lesion column, more than one number indicates more than one lesion.
| Study ID | UAS/dilator size (Fr.) | Effect (insertion) | F max > 1 s before irrigation(N) | F max > 1 s after irrigation (N) | Ureteral lesions (PULS grade) |
