This facilitates complete stone clearance in large stones.<\/p><p>The advantage of supine PCNL is also the ability for the anaesthetist to access the patient&#8217;s airway and there is no need for turning of the patient onto their front.<\/p><p>Patients in pain from renal colic can be seen urgently if not admitted directly to the hospital.<\/p><p>For those with renal colic and fevers, they should go immediately to their nearest emergency department or phone the rooms with a referral so they may be admitted directly to the hospital.
