METHOD FOR CONTROLLING RENAL CALCULI DISINTEGRATION IN EXTRACORPOREAL LITHOTRIPSY IN CHILDREN

摘要

FIELD: medicine.;SUBSTANCE: method involves a complex ultrasonic examination by means of Toshiba Aplio XG V4 ultrasonic apparatus. ASQ technique is used to construct a calculus density diagram to determine a density index. If the calculus density index is more than 5.5, an extracorporeal lithotripsy session is conducted at shock wave pulse 14-15 kV. If the calculus density index falls within the range of 5.5 to 3.6, the extracorporeal lithotripsy session is conducted at shock wave pulse reduced to 12-13 kV. If the calculus density index decreases to 3.5 to 2.0, the extracorporeal lithotripsy session is terminated.;EFFECT: method enables providing the more accurate control of renal calculi disintegration by determining its structural density that enables reducing the number of renal parenchyma injuries and a probability of complications.;4 dwg, 2 ex
