Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Randomized Controlled Trial of NSAID Prior to Ureteral Stent Removal in a Pediatric Population
This study plans to learn more about whether ibuprofen can reduce pain after removal of a
ureteral stent more than a placebo. Some patients experience pain after removal of a ureteral
stent. The investigators plan to learn how often this occurs and whether it can be prevented.
The investigators hypothesize that children who have a temporary, indwelling ureteral stent
will experience a significantly less post-operative pain if given a non-steroidal
anti-inflammatory (NSAID) prior to removal of the ureteral stent when compared to placebo.
The investigators hypothesize that the incidence of severe post-stent removal pain is similar
to an adult population.
