title: [Analgesia in extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy. Experience with a lithotripsy apparatus made in Czechoslovakia].
abstract: The authors describe their experience with the use of analgesia during lithotripsy by an extracorporeal impulse wave (LERV). They made a total of 253 lithotripsies in various indications in a total of 150 patients. Most frequently ataracoanalgesia was administered (a combination of diazepam and phentanyl), however, administration of midazolam (Dormicum) is also adequate. This is due among others to the favourable physical properties of the impulse waves generated by the apparatus used. In the discussion the authors give a brief account of the causes of painfulness of LERV, based on contemporary ideas and experience.
