NCT ID: NCT00842842 Completed - Postoperative Pain Clinical Trials

Mesh Fixation With Intraperitoneal Tisseel

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

The purpose of this study is to determine whether mesh fixation in laparoscopic umbilical hernia repair with fibrin glue is superior to tacks in terms of postoperative pain and recovery.

NCT ID: NCT00773851 Completed - Pain Clinical Trials

Transfacial Sutures Versus Stapler for Mesh Fixation in Laparoscopic Ventral Hernia Repair

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

Hernia of the abdominal wall occur frequently after various surgical procedures of the abdomen and are increasingly performed by laparoscopic means. Different mesh fixation techniques are applied, but the influence of mesh fixation on shrinkage is not known in human patients. Therefore, mesh shrinkage was assessed using two different techniques for fixation.

NCT ID: NCT00749268 Completed - Hernia, Inguinal Clinical Trials

AbsorbaTack Evaluation of Postoperative Pain Following Laparoscopic Hernia Repair

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

The objective of this study is to assess pain that occurs following hernia repair that is related to mesh fixation. The study is designed to see if there is any difference in pain after surgery between absorbable and permanent methods of mesh fixation in inguinal and ventral hernia repair.

NCT ID: NCT00647569 Completed - Incisional Hernia Clinical Trials

Trial of Collagen Mesh for Prevention of Ventral Hernia After Surgery for Advanced Pelvic Cancer

VRAM
Start date: April 2008
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

The aim of the present project is to investigate whether use of biological mesh at the donor site of the rotation flap in closure of the abdominal wall reduce the frequency of incisional hernia formation compared to the usual abdominal wall closure after abdominal rotation flap operation in surgery for advanced pelvic cancer.

NCT ID: NCT00646334 Completed - Clinical trials for Incisional Hernia Repair

Comparative Study of AESCULAP Optilene® Mesh Elastic Versus Ethicon Ultrapro® Mesh in Incisional Hernia Repair

Optilene
Start date: June 2006
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Optilene® Mesh Elastic and Ultrapro® Mesh will be used for incisional hernia repair. The primary objective of this clinical study is to demonstrate that Optilene® Mesh Elastic is superior to Ultrapro® Mesh in incisional hernia repair in matter of the physical function score from the SF-36 questionnaire 21 days after mesh insertion. Secondary objectives include the patient's daily activity, the rating of patients pain and the wound assessment determined on several occasions during the six months observation time.

NCT ID: NCT00572962 Completed - Ventral Hernia Clinical Trials

Prospective Clinical Observational Cohort Study to Evaluate the Use of a Tissue Separating Mesh (Proceed®) in Laparoscopic Ventral Hernia Repair

Start date: January 2008
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

1. General: antibiotic prophylaxis: cefazoline (Cefacidalâ„¢) 2 gram iv administered 30 minutes before surgery 2. Laparoscopic surgery - at least 5 cm overlap (mesh diameter should exceed hernia size by at least 10 cm) - with or without anchoring transparietal sutures or double crown technique

NCT ID: NCT00537927 Completed - Ventral Hernia Clinical Trials

LACH-Trial: LAparoscopic Correction of Hernia

LACH
Start date: August 2005
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Method of fixation of the mesh in laparoscopic incisional / ventral hernia repair might influence the degree of postoperative pain. The study hypothesis is that there is no difference in postoperative pain between different methods to fix the mesh in laparoscopic incisional / ventral hernia repair.

NCT ID: NCT00532870 Completed - Hernia, Ventral Clinical Trials

Laparoscopic Intraperitoneal Mesh Repair of Ventral Hernia: Comparison to Conventional Mesh Repair

Start date: March 2003
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The laparoscopic repair of ventral hernias is still a controversial therapeutic option. To evaluate the efficacy and safety of laparoscopic repair we compare the results of the open and laparoscopic repair of ventral hernia,. 53 patients were undergo laparoscopic or open repair of ventral hernia . All defects were estimated to be larger than 5 cm in diameter. Twenty six patients underwent attempted laparoscopic ventral hernia repair (LVHR) with mesh and twenty seven patients underwent open ventral hernia repair (OVHR) with mesh

NCT ID: NCT00528970 Completed - Ileus Clinical Trials

A Study Evaluating Intravenous (IV) MOA-728 for the Treatment of Postoperative Ileus (POI) in Participants After Ventral Hernia Repair

Start date: October 17, 2007
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

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.

NCT ID: NCT00472537 Completed - HERNIA, VENTRAL Clinical Trials

ProLOVE - Prospective Randomized Study of Midline Incisional Hernia Treatment

ProLOVE
Start date: November 2005
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

This purpose of this study is to compare the recovery after an operation of an incisional hernia within the limits of the rectus muscles of the abdominal wall. The use of a mesh in the repair of a postoperative hernia is considered obligatory. Placement of a retromuscular mesh is done by open or laparoscopic surgery. Focus is on the recovery phase assuming a less painful recovery after a laparoscopic procedure.
