Applications of Nephrostomy Devices in Urinary Tract Obstruction Relief, Renal Function Preservation & Palliative Care

Urinary Tract Obstruction Relief

Nephrostomy devices are commonly employed to help alleviate tract blockages by diverting urine from the kidney to an external receptacle rather than following the typical urinary pathway. This approach is particularly beneficial for individuals facing obstacles like tumors or blood clots that impede urine flow. Key industry players like Boston Scientific and Cook Medical focus, on producing these devices to ensure the secure management of obstructive uropathy.

Palliative Care
In palliative care settings nephrostomy devices play a role in easing pain and enhancing life quality for terminally ill individuals. They are particularly beneficial in alleviating discomfort due to hydronephrosis in patients with cancer. Medical companies such as Medtronic offer long lasting nephrostomy devices that effectively address symptoms and improve patient well being, in these situations.
Renal Function Preservation

Nephrostomy devices are essential for maintaining kidney function in situations where intentional harm to the system is inevitable due, to complex surgeries or medical treatments.
