FIG. 1. — Impact of LithoVue™ use on procedure duration and hospital stay. (A) Mean procedure duration decreased from 64.5 ± 37.0 to 54.1 ± 25.7 minutes (p < 0.05) for all procedures (left panel) and from 70.3 ± 36.9 to 57.3 ± 25.1 minutes (p < 0.05) for stone removal procedures (right panel) with the use of LithoVue. (B) Mean operating room duration decreased from 100.0 ± 38.8 to 86.7 ± 28.2 minutes (p < 0.05) for all procedures (left panel) and from 104.3 ± 39.4 to 89.8 ± 27.8 minutes (p < 0.05) for stone removal procedures (right panel) with the use of LithoVue. (C) Mean hospital stay changed from 503.6 ± 879.7 to 309.8 ± 673.2 minutes (p = 0.34) for all procedures (left panel) and from 564.7 ± 981.1 to 414.9 ± 727.8 minutes (p = 0.31) for stone removal procedures (right panel) with the use of LithoVue, differences that were not statistically significantly different. Comparisons between reusable flexible ureteroscope and LithoVue outcomes were performed using unpaired Student's t-test. Data shown are mean ± standard deviation.
