Abstract

Urolithiasis is a condition that occurs when these stones exit the renal pelvis and move into the urinary collecting system, which includes the urethra, bladder, and urethra. It accounts for a large number of hospital visits and is frequently preventable by modification of risk factors and has a numerous treatment options. Many patients with urolithiasis can be managed with expectant management, analgesic, and anti-emetic medications; however, stones that are associated with obstruction, renal failure, and infection require further increasingly critical interventions. This review mainly focused on activity outlines the etiology, diagnosis, management, and treatment of urolithiasis and highlights the role of the interprofessional team in evaluating and treating patients with this condition.
