Active clinical trials for "Hernia"

Five to ten percent of athletes and physical active adults are suffering chronic groin pain. The most common diagnoses are adductor tendinitis, sportsman hernia and osteitis pubis. Sportsman hernia is not a real hernia in the groin, but overuse injury of the groin muscles and tendons. No evidence-based treatment of this disabling condition has been found so far. Experimental surgical treatments are based on various hernioplasties. Laparoscopic extraperitoneal hernioplasty (TEP) is a mini-invasive and effective method to heal sportsman hernia in non-randomized cohorts.

Umbilical hernia repair is a common painful outpatient procedure performed in children. Often analgesia for this procedure is provided by using local infiltration of the surgical site by the surgeons and perioperative opioids and NSAIDS both IV and orally. The use of opioids can cause adverse side effects which include, but are not limited to nausea, vomiting, itching, and respiratory depression, etc. The rectus sheath block can be performed in these patients to decrease their post operative pain.

This study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of two different dose regimens (12 milligrams [mg] and 24 mg) of IV MOA-728 versus placebo in shortening the time to return of bowel function in participants receiving opioid analgesia administered via patient-controlled anesthesia (PCA), and who had undergone repair of large (greater than or equal to [≥]10 centimeters) ventral hernias with or without a mesh prosthesis via laparotomy or laparoscopy.

This is a multicenter clinical trial to compare pain, physical function, and other outcomes in men with asymptomatic or minimally symptomatic inguinal hernias randomly assigned to watchful waiting without an operation, or a standard hernia repair with mesh. We studied the safety of delaying operation.

The current study will compare the effects on postoperative pain relief of "freezing" (ropivacaine 0.2 %) alone and in combination with clonidine for a nerve block in children undergoing hernia repair. The researchers anticipate that the addition of clonidine to "freezing" will result in prolongation of postoperative pain relief in children undergoing hernia repair compared to "freezing" used alone.

Hernia repair is one of the most common operations. Whilst there are few complications, pain may last for several weeks and extend the period of convalescence. ALGRX 4975 is an ultra-pure form of capsaicin, which is a pain medicine that has the potential for long-term pain relief following a single administration. This study will determine whether ALGRX 4975 can provide pain relief following hernia repair.

This will be a randomized controlled study which will compare the rate of post-operative urinary retention after laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair between patients who receive an intra-operative urinary catheter and those who do not. The primary aim of the study is to determine if the use of intra-operative urinary catheter reduces the incidence of post-operative urinary retention after laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair. Specific patient inclusion criteria include all patients aged 18 years or older presenting for an elective unilateral or bilateral inguinal hernia repair, who are able to tolerate general anesthesia and are considered eligible to have a hernia repair through a laparoscopic approach.

Introduction. The goal of our study was to compare results in patients with large midline incisional hernia (LMIH) using only anterior compònent separation (CST) versus preoperative botulinum toxin (BT) and following Rives repair (RSR). Material and methods. From to December 2016 to December 2018, a prospective comparative study was performed in 80 consecutive patients with LMIH and hernia transverse diameter between 12-18 cms at our tertiary center. Two groups were prospectively analyzed: patients underwent open CST (component separation group or CSG) and patients with preoperative BT administration and following open RSR (botulinum toxin group or BTG).

There are difficulties in the progress of the study and cancel the plan. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the postoperative pain control using non - opioidal analgesics in children. The investigators will investigate the effect of single use and combination of caldorol(ibuprofen) compare to denogan(propacetamol) in children. Participants who receive the laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair between 6 months and 6 years old are divided 3 groups(caldolor, denogan, combination). Each groups are received a medication by protocol during surgery. After operation patient's pain score and use of additional analgesics are recorded in postanesthesia care unit and general ward.

The aim of this study is to evaluate success, efficacy, feasibility and safety of a simple five step ultrasound guided local anesthetic infiltration technique for unilateral open inguinal hernia repair and to determine the non-inferiority of the block to spinal anesthesia by comparing intraoperative and postoperative complications, pain control and patient and surgeon satisfaction of the block with spinal anesthesia.
