Clinical and experimental research has shown that complications connected with negative influence of focused waves in distant lithotripsy in litotripters with an electrohydravlic system of focused waves generation depend on many factors, including the regime of wave generator work, an electrode interval, defocusing the wave as a result of an electrode interval center displacement, the amplitude of pressure and the length of a wave impulse in positive and negative phases. The wave impulse is distorted, which leads to kidney tissue damage.
