Here’s neat (minor) modification to help pass a wire from a sheath with no assistance which I borrowed from an IR colleague
Put the sheath on your wrist/forearm like a giant bracelet

BWALE-33: The transparent tip of a Laser Fiber is very fragile. It can break. Use Nitinol basket to remove it. But remember that we dont need transparent tip. So CUT it with regular scissors. Laser efficiency remains the same,tip visibility is excellent(blue) &no risk of breakage

.@Urology_tips #Urology residents: Late at night when scoping a catheter in and you realize you forgot to put the lidocaine gel syringe together and have no assistant and only one free hand, don’t panic. Here’s how to do it with one hand and stay sterile. #urotipsandtricks
Great tips from @DissanaikeMD
I see HIPAA violations daily on Twitter. If you're a urologist, please read @AmerUrological and @Uroweb statements on use of SoMe.

.@Urology_tips Recently showed up to TUR to find this on the back table. Appropriately expresses the attitude everyone in urology cases should have towards lubricant, but with less mess than just squeezing whole tube out onto a towel
From @kingurology @mcg_urology. Trouble shooting Furlow obturator issues. Some other great ideas in the thread as well
Riddle me this...what do you do if “you” drop the obturator for the Furlow and there are no other ones immediately available? Mr. Reggie Williams, @Coloplast_MD clinical sales rep extraordinarie knows... #TeachingMoment #MacGyver #IPP 1/2

A clamp beloved by urologists. Great for side biting IVC for thrombus just into cava. Technique by Libertino @LaheyUro: 2“nested” Satinskys, 15 blade right on smaller “outside” clamp & remove it: leaves uniform cuff on remaining clamp to run closed. @CanesDavid @uretericbud
Bumping this from a few years ago from @CanesDavid. Great trick, especially with decreased staffing and the strain CBI places on nursing.
Here’s an oldie but goodie for gross hematuria management.
Help your urology nurses! For patients on CBI the drainage bag fills up fast. Take the plastic connector off the bag, and daisy chain a second drainage bag. Gives nurses extra time. They will thank you.
