Introducing Peditrol: Precision Irrigation at Your Feet

In the evolving field of endourology, maintaining optimal visibility while minimizing intra-renal pressure is critical—especially during complex or prolonged ureteroscopic procedures. That’s where Peditrol, our innovative foot-operated precision irrigation system, comes in.

Hands-Free Control, Maximum Focus

Designed specifically for surgeons performing flexible and semi-rigid ureteroscopy, Peditrol enables full irrigation control without interrupting the procedure. By eliminating the need for hand engagement, Peditrol supports a truly hands-free experience—empowering surgeons to maintain precision and focus, even during the most demanding cases.

Performance You Can Feel – One Tap at a Time

Peditrol’s foot-activated design offers an immediate response and fine-tuned, drop-by-drop irrigation. With ultra-small boluses—as little as under 1 ml—and a built-in maximum bolus limit of 2.7 ml, the system helps protect against sudden increases in intra-renal pressure, making it ideal for cases where control is paramount.

Key Features at a Glance:

  • Hydrodistension: Gently distends the ureter ahead of stone extraction or when inserting a ureteric access sheath—protecting the ureteric wall and improving maneuverability.

  • Stone Repositioning: Small, controlled boluses allow for the strategic displacement of stones from hard-to-reach areas, such as the lower pole, into more accessible locations.

  • Thermal Equilibration: Promotes efficient water mixing during laser dusting and pop-corning, helping to prevent localized thermal injury.

  • Ureteric Orifice Dilation: Enables atraumatic hydro-probing of a concealed ureteric orifice—reducing the need to probe blindly with a guidewire.

  • Reliable High-Flow Irrigation: Maintains performance even when the scope is fully flexed or loaded with instruments like a laser fiber or basket.

Clinical Use Cases:

Peditrol is engineered for controlled, pulsed, low-volume irrigation—perfectly suited for:

  • Complex or prolonged ureteroscopic procedures

  • Cases involving stone fragmentation

  • Procedures requiring careful navigation through tortuous ureteral anatomy

Elevate Your Ureteroscopy Workflow

With Peditrol, you gain more than just an irrigation system—you gain precision, efficiency, and peace of mind in the OR. Whether you're repositioning a stubborn stone or navigating tight anatomy, Peditrol helps ensure the field stays clear and pressure stays controlled—exactly when and where you need it.
