Dominican Republic Mission Cost Analysis
HerniaHydroceleExpenditures on material supplies and medications constitute the greatest per capita costs for surgical missions. We hypothesized that supply acquisition at nonprofit organization cost would lead to significant cost-savings compared to supply acquisition at US academic institution costs from the provider perspective for hernia repairs and minor procedures during a surgical mission in the Dominican Republic.
Zenapro™ Hybrid Hernia Repair Device for Ventral Hernia Repair
Ventral HerniasThe objective this study is to collect post-market data on the performance of the Zenapro™ Hybrid Hernia Repair Device when used to reinforce or bridge the abdominal wall for the repair of ventral hernias.
Persistent Pain After Laparoscopic Inguinal Hernia Repair
PainPostoperative2 moreDescribe and characterizes laparoscopic postherniotomy patients with persistent moderate/severe pain affecting every day activities - including detailed quantitative sensory assessment
Pain and Convalescence After Laparoscopic Groin Hernia Repair
Inguinal HerniaConvalescenceThe investigators want to identify limiting factors for short convalescence after laparoscopic groin hernia repair. Before the operation patients are given intensive structured information about one day´s convalescence. Patients fill out questionnaire before operation about several clinically relevant parameters. This is also done first 3 days after operation and after 1 month and 6 months. The patients are seen for clinical control at 1 and 6 months.
Prevalence Rates of USI, BO, DO and Their Clinical and Urodynamic Findings in Women With ≥Stage...
Lower Urinary Tract Symptom in Severe Cystocele WomenPrevalence rates of urodynamic stress incontinence (USI), bladder oversensitivity (BO) /detrusor overactivity (DO) or both and their related clinical and urodynamic findings in women with ≥ pelvic organ prolapse quantification stage II cystocele are important for clinical consultation. Thus, the aim of this study was to elucidate the above findings and between-group associations.
Mesh and Mesh Fixation in Laparoscopic Groin Hernia Surgery
HerniaInguinal10 moreThe study attempts to quantify the relative risks for recurrence depending on complex combinations of plausible risk factors, in particular mesh, mesh fixation, hernia size and hernia type. For this purpose the investigators will analyze data from the Swedish Hernia Registry (SHR).
Incisional Hernia Rate After Single-incision Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy
CholelithiasisSingle-incision laparoscopic cholecystectomy (SILC) requires a larger incision than standard laparoscopy, which may increase the incidence of incisional hernias. This study evaluated SILC and standard multiport cholecystectomy with respect to perioperative outcomes, hospital stay, cosmetic results, and postoperative complications, including the 5-years incisional hernia rate.
CT and Clinical Features of Internal Hernia
CT Images of Internal HerniaClinical OutcomesResearchers retrospectively reviewed patients with internal hernia that confirmed by surgical exploration between Feb. 2012 and Feb. 2018. and analysis the Medical records and MDCT images to investigate the clinical and radiological features of internal hernia.
Pelvis Displacement and Gait Indicators in Patient With Lumbar Disc Herniation
Lumbar Disc HerniationGait Analysis1 moreThe purpose of this study is to investigate the correlation between pattern of gait and pelvic displacement in patients with lumbar disc herniation.
Chronic Pain After Groin Hernia Surgery in Women
HerniaInguinal2 moreThe goal of this study was to evaluate chronic pain and reoperation rates due to recurrence after groin hernia surgery in women compared to men and surgical method.
