OBJECTIVE
The pain-relieving efficacy of antagonists of histamine 1 (H1) receptors that are widely found in the ureter and that cause contractions in renal colic was presented in comparison with a placebo.
METHODS
Eighty-six patients who presented to the emergency service because of renal colic
OBJECTIVE
Based on previous studies showing that warming decreases trauma pain in emergency care we hypothesized that local active warming of the abdomen and lower back region could decrease pain in acute renal colic cases during emergency transport.
METHODS
After obtaining informed consent 100
BACKGROUND
Renal stones are the third common disease of the urinary system after infections and diseases of the prostate. One of the most common manifestations of this disease after acute pain is nausea and vomiting.

A 46-year-old woman presented with nausea and vomiting, colics and localized pain in the upper abdomen. There was a family history of juvenile polyposis (3 of 4 siblings). Twelve years ago a colectomy had been performed in the patient for a gastric mucosal polyps.
METHODS

The symptoms of right-sided renal colic mimic sometimes acute appendicitis. A prospective comparative study of 188 patients with ureteral stone and 188 patients with acute appendicitis was performed to evaluate the features of differential diagnosis. Appendicitis caused more often nausea (81 vs
Urolithiasis is a disease characterized by the presence of stones in the kidney or urinary tract. It is often detected accidentally during an ultrasound or an abdominal x-ray performed for other reasons. However, the first symptom of kidney stone disease can be severe pain called renal colic. Pain
There are multiple potential states and/or symptoms that may occur in the palliative care population including: pain, nausea/vomiting, fatigue, anorexia, dyspnea, hiccups, cough, constipation, abdominal cramps/bloating, diarrhea, pruritis, depression/anxiety, dysphagia and sleep disturbances. Some
31 patients with symptoms of acute renal colic were treated with diclofenac natrium. According to preliminary results this drug is more effective for relieving pain of acute renal colic than the traditional combination of spasmolytics and analgetics. This might be due to the blocking effect of
OBJECTIVE
Patients presenting to the emergency department (ED) with suspected biliary colic often require intravenous (IV) analgesia. The choice of IV analgesia typically includes opioids and ketorolac. Although ultrasound (US) is the initial diagnostic study in these patients, nondiagnostic scans
OBJECTIVE
Renal colic (RC) is a common cause for emergency department visits. This study was conducted to compare the analgesic efficacy of morphine plus ketamine (MK) versus morphine plus placebo (MP) in patients with acute renal colic.
METHODS
Using a single center, double-blind, two-arm,
A giant colonic lipoma causing colo-colonic intussusception is extremely rare in adults. A 35-year-old woman visited our emergency room with abdominal pain, abdominal distension, nausea and vomiting. Physical examination showed a painful distended abdomen. Abdominal computed tomography revealed that
The effect of glucagon administered as a bolus (1 mg) followed by a continuous infusion (2 mg/h) for 8 h and a placebo was compared in 37 adults with urographically demonstrated ureteral calculi less than 6 mm. The bolus injection was given 20 min after start of intravenous urography, and the
Intravenously administered ketorolac tromethamine provided complete pain relief to a 54-year-old man with right-sided testicular pain and nausea and vomiting. The patient had a ureteral calculus documented by computed tomography. This patient's pain initially failed to respond to intravenously
BACKGROUND
Many patients present to urology and emergency departments for acute renal colic complaints. There are many different imaging studies that can be used in patients with a pre-diagnosis of acute renal colic. In this study, we would like to assess the efficacy of using clinical and
