Abstract

Objective To investigate the feasibility of improving quality of life through outcome self-reporting and clinical intervention based on the Ureteral Stent Symptom Questionnaire（USSQ） for patients with upper tract urolithiasis. Methods We enrolled 106 patients with upper urinary tract calculi from June 2023 to June 2024 who underwent ureteral stent placement at The First Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University. We applied the USSQ to monitor the patients’ outcomes through their self-reports，and used the data to inform clinical interventions. The feasibility of this USSQ-based approach for improving patients’ quality of life was evaluated. Results The main symptoms after ureteral stent placement were pain and hematuria，while frequency，urgency，fever，and sexual problems were less common. The USSQ score was highest on the third day after operation，and thereafter declined in all the dimensions. except the additional problem. After intervention，the total USSQ score （57.5±10.1 vs. 51.6±8.9，t=2.981，P=0.004） and urinary symptom score （30.8±5.3 vs. 26.7±5.6，t=3.478，P<0.001） were significantly decreased. USSQ-based outcome self-reporting and clinical intervention could reduce symptom scores and improve patients’ quality of life. Conclusion USSQ-based outcome monitoring and management are feasible and effective for improving the quality of life of patients with upper tract urolithiasis.
