The impact of urinary stone disease and their treatment on patients' quality of life: a qualitative study.

abstract：:In this review, aspects on the importance of information on urine composition and selection of the most appropriate regimen for prevention of recurrence are discussed. For patients with urolithiasis the treatment is facilitated by urine analysis with estimates of supersaturation levels. Despite lack of strong scientif...
