Association of patient and visit characteristics with rate and timing of urologic procedures for patients discharged from the emergency department with renal colic.
Little is known about the timing of urologic interventions in patients with renal colic discharged from the emergency department. Understanding patients' likelihood of a subsequent urologic intervention could inform decision-making in this population. The objective of this study was to examine the rate and timing of urologic procedures performed after an emergency department visit for renal colic and the factors associated with receipt of an intervention.
