NCT ID: NCT01484743 Completed - Parastomal Hernia Clinical Trials

Risk Factors for Morbidity After Parastomal Hernia Repair

PAHEREP
Start date: January 2007
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The Danish Ventral Hernia Database (DVHD) registers 37 different perioperative parameters. The aim of present study is to use large-scale data from DVHD to uncover risk factors for readmission, reoperation (any indication), death and reoperation for recurrence after parastomal hernia repair.

NCT ID: NCT01467830 Withdrawn - Inguinal Hernia Clinical Trials

Open Inguinal Hernia Repair With Mesh,the Use of Absorbable Versus Non Absorbable Fixation Sutures

Start date: December 2011
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy of mesh fixation using absorbable versus non-absorbable sutures.

NCT ID: NCT01467245 Completed - Clinical trials for Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia

Open or Keyhole Surgery Through the Chest for Newborn Babies: Effect on Blood Gases

CO2
Start date: August 2009
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This is a pilot randomised controlled trial comparing open versus thoracoscopic surgery for repair of oesophageal atresia with tracheo-oesophageal fistula or congenital diaphragmatic hernia in neonates. Thoracoscopic surgery involves insufflation of carbon dioxide into the thoracic cavity and may therefore cause hypercapnia and acidosis.

NCT ID: NCT01450345 Recruiting - Postoperative Pain Clinical Trials

Efficacy of Pre-operative Oral Pregabalin in Ambulatory Inguinal Hernia Repair for Post Operative Pain

Start date: September 2009
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

The study carry out is to determine whether the use of oral pregabalin premedication to assess the analgesic efficacy, opiod sparing, adverse effect and clinical value in post-operative pain management.

NCT ID: NCT01430676 Completed - Incisional Hernia Clinical Trials

Risk Factors for Morbidity After Incisional Hernia Repairs

Start date: January 2007
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The Danish Ventral Hernia Database (DVHD) registers 37 different perioperative parameters. The aim of present study is to use large-scale data from DVHD to uncover risk factors for readmission, reoperation (any indication), death and reoperation for recurrence after incisional hernia repair.

NCT ID: NCT01426477 Terminated - Hernia Clinical Trials

Veritas in Non-Bridging Ventral Hernia Repair

VIBE
Start date: August 2011
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

The main study objective is to determine the frequency of hernia recurrence following use of Veritas Collagen Matrix.

NCT ID: NCT01421602 Completed - Hernia, Inguinal Clinical Trials

A Prospective Observational Study on the Use of a Self Fixating Lightweight Polyester Mesh in Open Inguinal Hernia

Start date: September 2011
Phase:
Study type: Observational

This study will hypothesize that the use of a self fixating lightweight mesh in open inguinal repair is feasible in the Philippine setting. It will result in a comparable recurrence rate as published for the traditional Lichtenstein approach.

NCT ID: NCT01421550 Recruiting - Liver Cirrhosis Clinical Trials

Conservative Treatment Versus Elective Repair of Umbilical Hernia in Patients With Ascites and Liver Cirrhosis

CRUCIAL
Start date: January 2011
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of the present study is to investigate whether or not to perform elective surgical repair of umbilical hernias in patients with liver cirrhosis and ascites. There are no other randomized controlled trials in this area. The optimal management in patients with umbilical hernias and liver cirrhosis with ascites is not clear yet. The general surgical opinion is that umbilical hernias in patients with ascites should not be corrected because of the supposedly high operative risks and high recurrence rates. Conservative treatment, however, can have severe complications resulting in emergency repair. Such operations carry a higher risk of complications than elective operations, particularly in this group of patients. Prospective and retrospective series showed us that elective hernia repair in this specific patient group is safe without major complications or high recurrence rates. The aim of this study is to asses the optimal timing of correction of umbilical hernia in patients with liver cirrhosis and ascites.

NCT ID: NCT01413412 Active, not recruiting - Postoperative Pain Clinical Trials

Full-thickness Skin vs. Synthetic Mesh in the Repair of Large Incisional Hernia

Start date: December 2009
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This is a prospective randomized study to compare surgical methods for the repair of large abdominal hernia.

NCT ID: NCT01411397 Completed - Strangulated Hernia Clinical Trials

Mesh Hernioplasty Of Strangulated Hernias With Intestinal Resection

Start date: June 2005
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Primary suture repair increases the risk for recurrence, the fact of benefit of mesh repair in elective situations is documented, and many studies have reported beneficial outcomes of mesh hernioplasty in emergency situations. Still there is controversy of using such grafts in presence of intestinal resection.
