Relationship between renal pelvis pressure and post‐ureteroscopy infection in a live swine model
In this swine model of ureteroscopy, irrigation with saline + E. coli at a renal pelvis pressure of 75 mmHg resulted in bacteraemia and inflammatory biomarker elevations significantly greater than both E. coli irrigation with renal pelvis pressure maintained at 37 mmHg and the control.
