Analgesia for Shock Wave Lithotripsy

British Journal of Medical and Surgical Urology, 2010
Since its introduction nearly three decades ago, extracorporeal lithotripsy has become an established treatment for kidney and ureteric stones. Treatment using early lithotripsy devices was efficacious but painful, requiring general anaesthesia. Modern lithotripters are better tolerated: shock wave lithotripsy (SWL) is now usually an outpatient ...
