Kidney stones are solid pieces of material that form from dietary elements found in urine. Larger kidney stones may cause painful ureteral obstruction for patients as they move through the ureter. A kidney stone that manages to become lodged in a patient's ureter may prevent drainage of urine from the kidney that causes swelling (hydronephrosis) that could lead to kidney damage. ESWL is the most common type of lithotripsy. ESWL utilizes focused, high intensity acoustic pulses to treat kidney stones. These acoustic pulses break kidney stones into small enough pieces so that patients may pass them without discomfort. The duration of an average procedure is approximately one hour. Procedures with ESWL do involve patients receiving anesthesia. Patients are generally able to return home the same day as their procedure. The C.W. Bill Young VAMC has a requirement to procure a contract for the services of a transportable ESWL system (inclusive of Shock Wave Lithotripsy Unit, Treatment Table, X-Ray C-Arm, ESWL Workstation and Display Monitors, Licensed Radiological Technologists for Diagnostic Radiographic/X-Ray; Any and all ESWL Equipment/Materials Necessary for Procedures). A State Licensed radiologic technologist who is licensed in diagnostic radiography/X-ray is also required. 5.1 Specific Tasks 5.1.1 Required Equipment and Technical Specifications 5.1.1.1 Lithotripter and Treatment Table Requirements The contractor must be able to consistently provide a transportable lithotripter with treatment table for each ESWL procedure.
