Active clinical trials for "Hernia"

The theory of "undissected Spermatic cord (US)" only transected the hernia ring ends in the abdominal cavity, the hernia ring, hernia sac and spermatic cord will not be dissected. Its significance lies in that inguinal hernia repair can get rid of the "entanglement" of hernia sac and spermatic cord and fundamentally change the treatment mode of hernia ring and hernia sac.

The present study is a case series study, conducted to introduce a common disease of abdominal wall which has received less attention in scientific resources. The study population was all patients who following repeated hospital visits did not improve, and for their last try, they visited a traditional clinic, and were diagnosed with umbilical hernia.

This study analyse the need for neuromuscular blockade in consecutive routine laparoscopic procedures without standard use of neuromuscular blockade in an ambulatory laparoscopic surgery setting and analyse specific reasons for using neuromuscular blockade in individual patients. Furthermore, the study report the analgesic use in postoperative care unit and the discharge rate.

Mesh fixation is used to prevent recurrence in TEP to the potential cost of pain. The aim was to evaluate the impact of permanent fixation (PF) versus non-permanent fixation (N-PF) of mesh in TEP repair for a primary inguinal hernia regarding chronic pain. A cohort of patients were studied for pain interfering with sexual activety. The hyopthesis is that fixation causes pain.

Observational longitudinal study in children operated at birth on diaphragmatic hernia and/or oesophageal atresia : assessment of lung function parameters; assessment of quality of life and cognitive development; assessment of stress parenting and strategies of adaptation.

Danish male patients who had undergone bilateral TAPP (July 2012 to June 2013) were recruited from the Danish Hernia Database and cross-checked with hospital files and the National Patient Registry. A standardized postal questionnaire was sent out two years after the index surgery to investigate Patients Related Outcome Measures (PROMs) such as chronic post-operative pain.

The Trans REctussheath PrePeritoneal (TREPP) mesh repair was introduced in 2006 to decrease the risk of postoperative inguinal pain in hernia surgery. For the repair of a recurrent inguinal hernia after a primary TREPP an alternative open anterior route (Lichtenstein) may seem the most logical option, but coincides with an increased risk of chronic postoperative inguinal pain. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the feasibility of a second TREPP procedure to repair a recurrent inguinal hernia after an initial TREPP repair. The hypothesis was that the technique is possible and does not lead to an increased risk of postoperative pain.

The Danish Hernia Database (DHD) registers 37 different perioperative parameters. The aim of present study is to use large-scale data from DHD to uncover risk factors for long-term (30 days postoperative and later) readmission, reoperation, death and reoperation for recurrence after incisional hernia repair with use of a synthetic mesh.

Patients with an incisional hernia in the midline and controls with an intact abdominal wall are examined twice with one week apart, in order to establish the test-retest reliability and internal and external validity of the Goodstrength trunk dynamometer.

Soaking meshes in a vancomycin solution just prior to their use in open hernia repairs will decrease rates of mesh infection
