Clinical Trial Summary

Randomized trial to compare outcomes of robot-assisted and laparoscopic ventral hernia repair surgery.

Description:

Ventral hernia repair is a very common surgical operation. Both laparoscopic and robot-assisted operations are considered acceptable. However, there is no clear indication for a particular approach. No prospective trial has been conducted so far to establish superiority of one approach over the other. The Investigator believes each approach has unique characteristics and may offer advantages over the other in the right population group. The Investigator will randomly assign patients in two arms according to the surgical approach, whether laparoscopic or robot-assisted. The Investigator will collect preoperative characteristics, intraoperative variables, and postoperative outcomes. The Investigator will compare all variables to establish differences between the two groups.

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Other	Complications	Post-operative 30 day complication rates will be recorded prospectively. All complications (including multiple occurrences per patient) will be recorded and graded per the Clavien-Dindo classification system.	From immediately post-operative until year five following surgical ventral hernia repair.
Primary	Operative time	time from start to finish of procedure, procedure start and stop times as recorded by anesthesia	perioperative time
Secondary	Post operative pain score	Abdominal pain at rest and on moving (recumbent to the upright position), will be assessed using 0-10 Numeric Pain Rating Scale preoperatively (baseline), and at 24 hours, 30 days, and one year postoperatively	until year five post-operative
