Compared with previous electromagnetic lithotripters, such as the EMSE 220 F and the 220 F- XP, the new EMSE 220 F-XXP produces a kind of shock wave with modified parameters. The Focal positive Pressure (P+) reaches a lower value of 90.4 MPa; in the same way the Focal Negative Pressure (P-) reaches the - 8.0 MPa. The width of the shock wave increases to 412 ns and the Effective Energy value on the 12 mm plane (Eeff) reaches the 110 mJ. The improvement of the shock wave parameters produced by the EMSE 220 F-XXP, suc as the longer width of the shock wave and the higher energy applied, obtained better clinical results compared with the previous EMSE.

Abstract
Compared with previous electromagnetic lithotripters, such as the EMSE 220 F and the 220 F- XP, the new EMSE 220 F-XXP produces a kind of shock wave with modified parameters. The Focal positive Pressure (P+) reaches a lower value of 90.4 MPa; in the same way the Focal Negative Pressure (P-) reaches the - 8.0 MPa. The width of the shock wave increases to 412 ns and the Effective Energy value on the 12 mm plane (Eeff) reaches the 110 mJ. The improvement of the shock wave parameters produced by the EMSE 220 F-XXP, suc as the longer width of the shock wave and the higher energy applied, obtained better clinical results compared with the previous EMSE.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
