Active clinical trials for "Hernia, Ventral"

This prospective clinical study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of the Cook® Antimicrobial Hernia Repair Device containing an antimicrobial to reinforce soft tissue during ventral or incisional hernia repair in clean-contaminated, contaminated, and dirty-infected (i.e., Class II, Class III, and Class IV) surgical fields. Up to 30 patients will be treated with the Cook® Antimicrobial Hernia Repair Device and patients will be followed for 12 months.

For small (2-3cm) ventral and umbilical hernias the discussion for primary suture repair or the use of mesh continues. About 5 years ago the Ventralex patch was introduced, which combines a layer of PTFE mesh with a small polypropylene mesh and includes a circular memory ring. Despite the elegance of using this patch, recent experience showed several drawbacks both in design and efficacy (3). With the recent development of the Proceed Ventral Patch (PVP), new elements have been introduced to overcome some of these issues. The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of clinical placement of the PVP in the intra-abdominal position in the treatment of small ventral hernias.

The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of a local anesthetic dispensed via a tiny catheter device, called the ON-Q PainBuster pump, placed during surgery on top of the mesh used in the laparoscopic repair of ventral hernias. The goals are: reducing postoperative pain from this procedure decreasing length of hospital stay reducing or eliminating amount of post-operative narcotics used

The aim of the study is to determine if the usage of sugammadex would reduce the time to return of bowel function when compared to standard of care (neostigmine/glycopyrrolate) when used for neuromuscular blockade reversal in patients with open abdominal wall reconstruction (AWR).

A Three-Part, Phase 1/2, Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-Controlled, Adaptive Safety, Pharmacokinetics, and Preliminary Efficacy Study of CA-008 (Vocacapsaicin) in Patients Undergoing Ventral Hernia Repair

This randomized trial aimed to assess the efficacy of preservation of Scarpa's fascia during hernio-abdominoplasty in reducing the volume of postoperative drainage, accelerating time to drain removal and recovery, and reducing complication rate.

The SIMBIOSE trial is a large multicenter phase III prospective randomized controlled single blinded trial comparing the use of biological mesh versus traditional wound care without biological mesh in patients with an infected incisional ventral hernia. The primary endpoint is 6-month infectious and/or wound morbidity. Secondary endpoints are wound infection rate at 45 days, 3 months and 1 year, recurrent hernia rates at 1, 2 and 3 years, postoperative pain, quality of life, time to healing, need for wound reoperation, impact of the cross-linked mesh structure, and medico-economic evaluation. One hundred patients need to be included.

Patients who undergo abdominal wall reconstruction for giant ventral hernia repair will be randomized to either methylprednisolone or saline preoperatively, to examine the effects of methylprednisolone on postoperative pain, nausea and recovery after giant ventral hernia repair.

A multi-center post-market single arm prospective study of Parietene™ DS Composite Mesh in subjects undergoing ventral hernia repair to confirm its clinical safety and performance in the short (1, 3 months), mid (12 months) and long term (24 months)

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.
