Filter by:Prestoma Trial is designed to compare the safety and efficiency of three different meshes and techniques to prevent parastomal hernia after laparoscopic or robotic-assisted abdominoperineal resection for rectal adenocarcinoma.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the use of autologous umbilical cord blood (UCB) mononuclear cells to mitigate hypoxic neurologic injury among infants with high-risk congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH).
A post-market clinical follow-up study for ReliaTack™ articulating reloadable fixation device with deep purchase tacks
This study compares the transversalis fascia plane block with the ilioinguinal/iliohypogastric nerve block in children undergoing hernia repair surgery. Half of participants will receive the transversalis fascia plane block, while the other will receive the ilioinguinal/iliohypogastric nerve block.
Inguinal hernia repair is done by two methods. The conventional method uses a prosthetic mesh for strengthening the defect but has been associated with complications. Another new method uses a strip of the external oblique aponeurosis to do the same.There is a necessity to conduct studies comparing the two methods of hernia repair under local anaesthesia in terms of feasibility, economic benefits, faster ambulation with less complications. The purpose of the study is to find a method that will lead to faster disposal of patients and early return to activities, thereby reducing the waiting list of patients that compromises their financial and social spheres and overwhelms the welfare system.
This is a randomized controlled trial evaluation effect of postoperative rehabilitation after surgery for lumbar disc herniation. The primary aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of unsupervised home exercises compared to supervised physical rehabilitation. Secondary aims of this study are to determine if there is a difference in cost-effectiveness in patients undergoing supervised physical rehabilitation in patients after surgery for lumbar disc herniation compared to unsupervised home exercises.
A prophylactic mesh fixation after fascial closure in umbilical trocar after cholecystectomy may prevent the trocar site hernia incidence. Especially in patients who present certain risk factors.
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)
Ventral hernias are a common disease and one half of all individuals are born with or will acquire a ventral hernia in their lifetime. Repair of ventral hernias may be associated with significant morbidity, including surgical site infection, hernia recurrence and reoperation. Minimally invasive ventral hernia repair decreases rates of surgical site infection and hospital length of stay, without affecting recurrence, however the laparoscopic approach to ventral hernia repair accounts for only about 1/3 of all total hernia repairs performed in the US. Recent large database studies have suggested that robotic ventral hernia repair may be associated with decreased hospital length of stay. However, this study is affected by common biases of database studies and randomized controlled trials are needed to assess the true impact of robotics for ventral hernia repair.
Lichtenstein technique, inserting a mesh over the inguinal cord in the neurological plane, is considered the standard of inguinal hernia repair, but it has 4% recurrence and 12% chronic postoperative pain. Rives technique inserts the mesh in the preperitoneal space behind the neurological plane and the muscular plane, thus better fulfilling the principle of hydrostatics.
