Outcome Measures

Outcome	Result	p-value
PRIMARY Time in Seconds to Complete the Cystourethroscopy	103; 117; 147; 82	—

Summary

Objective: The investigators seek to compare the efficiency of the cystoscopy with two interventions: 1. patient position during the cystoscopy (Trendelenburg (head down) or flat) 2. Abdominal insufflation (insufflation versus no insufflation)

comorbidities including cardiac disease, chronic hypertension, any stage kidney disease (including abnormal creatinine level), and use of diuretics.
Undergoing extensive ureterolysis
