NCT ID: NCT01380067 Completed - Clinical trials for Complications of Surgical and Medical Care: General Terms

a New Way for Laparoscopic Inguinal Hernia Repair in Pediatric

Start date: January 2000
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

laparoscopic hernia sac high-ligation - has a high recurrence rate laparoscopic hernia sac high-ligation and the lateral umbilicus ligament covering the hernia opening - The investigators developed a method of laparoscopic hernia repair by applying a new concept in hernia repair. The hernia opening was tightened, and hernia opening region repaired with a lateral umbilicus ligament in a tension-free manner. This method combines the advantages of a secure repair achieved by the open method with the minimal invasiveness of the laparoscopic method. The investigators hypothesized that the lateral umbilicus ligament covering the internal hernia opening region after the laparoscopic purse-string knot would result in lower recurrence and the same operation relative complication.

NCT ID: NCT01377181 Completed - Inguinal Hernia Clinical Trials

Laparoscopic Hernia Repair With Lateral Umbilicus Ligament for Children

Start date: January 2000
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

The role of laparoscopic surgery in pediatric inguinal hernia repair is clear. Laparoscopic hernia repair is especially advantageous for bilateral diseases and minimally invasive technique in children because it avoids vas injury. However, the problem of recurrent rate has not been resolved. The aim of this study was to refine the current criteria used the lateral umbilicus ligament covering the internal hernia opening region, and eliminated recurrence in laparoscopic inguinal hernia (LIH) repair in children. The investigators hypothesized that the lateral umbilicus ligament covering the internal hernia opening region after the laparoscopic purse-string knot would result in lower recurrence and the same operation relative complication

NCT ID: NCT01350830 Completed - Clinical trials for Indirect Inguinal Hernia

Preperitoneal Versus Pre-trasversalis Hernia Repair

PPTHR
Start date: November 2007
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

Chronic pain rate is from 0 to 50% after prosthetic groin hernia repair. We compared two anterior technique positioning the mesh in the pre-trasversalis space vs preperitoneal space to assess any differences in term of chronic pain and early and late complications

NCT ID: NCT01289093 Completed - Inguinal Hernia Clinical Trials

Quality of Life After Laparoscopic Inguinal- Incisional and Umbilical Herniotomy.

life-in
Start date: March 2011
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

LIFE-IN. Quality of life after operation for hernias are not well investigated and lack a good and easy-to-understand-tool to measure it. Carolina Comfort Scale (CCS) is a disease-specific quality of life questionnaire, designed by an American group, to monitor quality of life in patients undergoing operation for hernias. The investigators wish to test this questionnaire against Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) scores for core-hernia symptoms, to see if the CCS is a good way to monitor the changes in quality of life and other well-known core-symptoms before and after herniotomies.

NCT ID: NCT01273818 Completed - Inguinal Hernia Clinical Trials

Effectiveness of Topical Antibiotic Prophylaxis in Inguinal Hernia Repair

Start date: January 2011
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

Aim of this study is to measure the effectiveness of topical gentamicin to prevent post-operative infection in inguinal tension-free hernia repair operation.Secondary aim is, if it is effective as a prophylactic agent, to compare it's effect with intra venous single dose cefazolin sodium prophylaxis.

NCT ID: NCT01264003 Completed - Inguinal Hernia Clinical Trials

Antibiotic Prophylaxis in Mesh Repair of Inguinal Hernias

Start date: May 2008
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

Inguinal hernia repairs is clean surgical procedures. However infection may be a concern when prosthetic materials are used. This prospective randomized study has been set to observe if antibiotic prohylaxis is of benefit in mesh repair of inguinal hernias.

NCT ID: NCT01220024 Completed - Postoperative Pain Clinical Trials

Safety and Efficacy of CollaRx® Bupivacaine Implant in Men After Open Laparotomy Herniorrhaphy

Start date: December 2, 2010
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

This study will assess pain intensity for the first 72 hrs after after aggravated movement (cough)following open laparotomy inguinal herniorrhaphy in patient who receive either the CollaRx Bupivacaine implant or a plain collagen sponge.

NCT ID: NCT01211067 Completed - Clinical trials for Indirect Inguinal Hernia

Study of Histological Findings of the Internal Inguinal Ring in Patients With Indirect Inguinal Hernia

Start date: September 2009
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

The histology of the internal inguinal ring in patients with indirect hernia submitted to elective surgery was studied. In contrast with recently published studies, the investigators believe that histological findings of the internal inguinal ring would reflect those associated and expected with normal aging.

NCT ID: NCT01203644 Completed - Inguinal Hernia Clinical Trials

Evaluation of the Safety, Efficacy, and Pharmacokinetics of SKY0402 in Subjects Undergoing Inguinal Hernia Repair

Start date: December 2004
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

The primary objective of this study was to determine the appropriate dose of SKY0402 for the management of postoperative pain following inguinal hernia repair. This study evaluated the safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics of SKY0402 compared with a 100 mg dose of bupivacaine HCl for the treatment of postoperative pain in subjects undergoing inguinal hernia repair. Study drug was administered by surgical wound infiltration at the end of the hernia repair procedure.

NCT ID: NCT01193985 Completed - Inguinal Hernia Clinical Trials

Safety and Performance Study of TIGR Matrix Surgical Mesh in Inguinal Hernia Repair

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

This an open, uncontrolled multicenter clinical study to assess the safety and performance of the WK-6 surgical mesh in adult patients with unilateral inguinal hernia. The primary objective is to determine the safety of the WK-6 surgical mesh. Data will be compared retrospectively with published studies on inguinal hernia mesh. The secondary objectives are to explore the performance of the surgical mesh by measuring the pain pre and post surgery as well as a number of relevant variables for establishing the performance of the mesh. Data will be compared retrospectively with previous studies on inguinal hernia mesh with a follow-up of at least one year.
