Purpose: In the surgical treatment of kidney stones, decreased access to healthcare has been shown to exacerbate stone burden, often requiring more invasive and extensive procedures. The objective of this study is to evaluate the effects of preventative health screening on kidney stone surgical treatment patterns.
Methods: We performed a retrospective analysis of data from the Healthcare Cost and Utilization Project (HCUP) Florida state-wide dataset and the PLACES Local Data for Better Health dataset from the Centers of Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). ZIP Code Tabulation Areas (ZCTAs) identified from the PLACES data were merged with the HCUP dataset to create a single dataset of community-level stone outcomes and community health measures. We included adult patients 18 years or older who underwent at least one urologic stone procedure from 2016 to 2020.
Results: 128,038 patients from 885 communities were included in the study. Patients underwent an average of 1.42 surgeries (Median = 1.39, SD = 0.16). Increased core preventative screening was associated with increased surgical frequency (Estimate: 0.51, P < 0.001). The low core preventative screening group had a higher prevalence of PNL than SWL while the high core preventative screening group had a low PNL prevalence compared to SWL.
Conclusion: Increased core preventative screenings are associated with less invasive kidney stone surgeries, suggesting that preventative screenings detect stones at an earlier stage.
