Active clinical trials for "Hernia, Ventral"

The implementation of an enhanced recovery pathway after giant ventral hernia repair, including preoperative high-dose steroid is examined prospectively and compared with a group of historic controls.

The aim of the present study was to analyse factors associated with prolonged length of hospital stay, readmission and death in a nationwide group of patients undergoing elective ventral hernia repair in search for areas of interest to improve outcome after ventral hernia surgery

For laparoscopic ventral hernia repair, the technique to close the hernia gap is not well established. Mainly three techniques are currently applied: no closure at all extracorporal suturing of the gap intracorporal suturing of the gap All three techniques have been applied at our hospital. Patients who received laparoscopic hernia repair between 2006 and 2011 will be identified from the patient database and will be contacted by phone to inquire about the outcome and the satisfaction of the surgery.

Combining the advantage of minimally invasive surgery with laparoscopy to reduce postoperative complications and the placement of a retromuscular prosthesis with closure of the defect in order to reduce the risk of adhesion and restore normal anatomy in the treatment of primary and incisional ventral hernias, is made possible through robotic assistance. The challenge of this study concerns the evaluation of quality of life, postoperative pain and recurrence at 6 months in the management of primary and incisional ventral hernias by robot-assisted laparoscopic approach.

We will examine the outcome of ventral hernia repair with subsequent pregnancy

The objective of the Project ADOPT- Ventral Hernia case-series is to collect clinical outcome data following the completion of a hands-on proctorship training model in laparoscopic ventral hernia repair.

The aim of this study is to evaluate risk factors and complications of ventral hernia repair. A retrospective study of journal files with patients undergoing ventral hernia repair, and an analyses of complications by use of the Clavien-Dindo classification of surgical complications.

The aim of present study was to evaluate the clinical course after emergency ventral hernia repair in terms of 30-day-readmission, -reoperation and -mortality and to identify risk factors for emergency repair.

This study will assess long-term outcomes (greater than 12 months) following ventral hernia repair with Strattice mesh reinforcement.

The research is aimed at identifying factors of herniation after median laparotomy and developing surgical methods for preventing postoperative ventral hernias and eventrations.
