SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: One time point - at the completion of the procedure

Population: Patients undergoing procedures with each device.

Subjective rating of damage to ureter. At the completion of the procedure, video of the intraluminal ureter is recorded as the sheath is withdrawn. Videos are analyzed by two blinded staff endourologists who score ureteral injury on a standard 5-point scale (0 to 4); reference Traxer and Thomas.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: One time point - at the completion of the procedure

Population: patients undergoing ureteroscopy with each device.

Surgeons will be asked to subjectively rate the ease of placement on a standardized scale from 0 to 4, 4 being easiest which will be rated by the surgeon who inserted the sheath immediately after placement.
