Kidney stone disease: an update on its management in primary care

Kidney stone disease: an update on its management in primary care
The incidence of kidney stone disease (urolithiasis) is rising, with a lifetime risk of 10–15%, and a recurrence rate of 50% within 10 years.1 Associated complications include significant pain secondary to renal colic, urinary tract infection (UTI) and urosepsis, and chronic kidney disease. The increasing burden of urolithiasis means that optimising its management in primary care is important.

Abstract

The incidence of kidney stone disease (urolithiasis) is rising, with a lifetime risk of 10–15%, and a recurrence rate of 50% within 10 years.1 Associated complications include significant pain secondary to renal colic, urinary tract infection (UTI) and urosepsis, and chronic kidney disease. The increasing burden of urolithiasis means that optimising its management in primary care is important.
