My first presentation at Engineering & Urology Society (EUS) during AUA 2024. Pleased to say my abstract was top 10, grateful for Dr. Clayman’s mentorship. His reaction says it all! @UCI_Urology #AUA24

The stache finally presents! @amirlavasani_ did an incredible job presenting his poster at the EUS which asks how hard are Urologist pushing when inserting sheaths? You’d be surprised at who’s pushing over the safety threshold. Some food for thought.

AUA 2023 UCI lab team dinner. Best team ever!

[Paul Piedras @piedras_paul]

And the best poster of the session goes to… @MccormacAmanda! Incredible presentation and poster from Amanda which sparked a great thought provoking conversation on the use of sheaths. #AUA2023

[Matthew Lee @MSLee_MD]

Amanda mccormac presents another one. 58% of patients were able to have a 14/16F UAS. 68% were prestented. Factors assoc w 14/16F success = prestented, pos ucx w/n 60d, preop abx use. Unclear why the last two were assoc w success #AUA23

[Deepak Agarwal @DrDAgarwal]

@MccormacAmanda finds that unstented ureter can accommodate 14 fr and prestented can accommodate 16 fr.

Tamsulosin pretreatment did not make a difference.
