Can trajectory nor‐epinephrine infiltration reduce blood loss during percutaneous nephrolithotomy? A double‐blinded randomized controlled trial

Abstract: To determine the efficacy and safety of trajectory infiltration with 1:150 000 Norepinephrine (NE) in reducing blood loss during percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL). Materials and methods: This is a prospective randomized double-blinded placebocontrolled trial. In all, 140 consecutive patients underwent PCNL for the management of large renal calculi. They were randomly assigned (1:1) to one of either study groups, the NE-PCNL group (70 patients whose PCNL-trajectory was infiltrated by NE) or the Placebo group … Show more

“…One different technique recently described to decrease bleeding is an injection of norepinephrine along the access tract prior to dilation using a 22-gauge needle next to the needle used for the tract. El-Shaer et al [19 ▪ ] performed a double-blinded, placebo-controlled trial assessing norepinephrine versus saline. In total, 140 patients were included in the study, with primary outcome blood loss calculated from fluid collected during the case.…”
