Spontaneous Stone Passage Using Fisher's Exact Test

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 2 months

Population: Comparisons between arms were calculated with ttest, Wilcoxon rank sum, and Fisher's exact test. Regression assessed odds of stone passageby 30 day visit by treatment arm. Time-to-stone pass was analyzed using Kaplan-Meier curves, log rank test,Cox proportional hazards regression. Patients who didn't pass stone were censored at last follow-up date. Wong-Baker Pain Rating Scale has zero to ten range. Zero represents no pain and ten represents worst.

Pain measures between treatment groups will be measured daily for each patient by using the Wong-Baker Pain Rating Scale. The Questionnaire will be observed in patients who require surgical intervention, and will be observed during study visit. A general linear model will be used to compare Wong-Baker pain scores between the treated and placebo groups. The model will also be used to explore associations between pain scores and demographic or clinical characteristics adjusting for treatment group.
