Filter by:The study was aimed at determining the magnitude, types, and associated factors of external abdominal hernia among adult patients visiting the outpatient department at the Hiwot Fana Comprehensive Specialized Hospital (HFCSH) and Jugol regional hospital in eastern Ethiopia.
The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to compare preoperative intensive weight management to upfront surgery in obese patients undergoing complex abdominal wall reconstruction. The main question is will abdominal wall specific quality of life (using the HerQLes survey) for the group undergoing upfront surgery be non-inferior compared to the group in the weight management program.
The study attempts to quantify the relative risks for acute postoperative pain, complications rate, chronic postoperative pain (CPIP) and recurrence rate after different methods of repair of groin, umbilical and incisional hernia depending on surgical technique, mesh type and fixation suture material. For this purpose the investigators will analyze data from the Kalinigrad Hernia Registry (KHR).
Ventral hernias in the midline of the abdominal wall are one of the most frequent diseases in general and visceral surgery worldwide. The optimal operative technique is still in discussion. The traditional techniques are open sublay or transabdominal intraperitoneal onlay mesh (IPOM) repair. In order to avoid the risks -large trauma to the abdominal wall with pain and infection, lesion of intraabdominal organs - a new hybrid technique - small skin incision, wide endoscopic dissection of the retrorectus space with implantation of a large mesh - was developed (EMILOS -Endoscopic Mini/Less Open Sublay).
In this randomized clinical trial, the investigators will compare the conventional open repair for hernia in the anterior abdominal wall with the robotic-assisted approach. 110 patients with midline abdominal wall defects will be randomized to either open or robotic-assisted surgery. The investigators will examine short and long-term complications through follow-up with clinical assessment as well as patient-reported outcome measures including pain, cosmetic appearance, and overall patient satisfaction. Furthermore, the investigators will study the difference in surgical stress response between the two methods measured from a variety of different biomarkers before and after the operation. A cost-effective analysis will be conducted for the robotic and open procedure.
The purpose for this research is to create a MyChart-enabled virtual coach that assists obese patients lose weight prior to ventral hernia surgery. Researchers intend to show how the use of a virtual coach is more effective in preoperative weight reduction prior to ventral hernia repair over usual care. Correspondingly, this may lower unplanned hospital readmissions. For this clinical trial, where randomization is not possible, the study team will implement the use of propensity score matching that sorts individuals into different study arms as if randomly assigned. The primary outcome is the average net amount of time-dependent weight change per group over six months. Secondary outcomes are for the intervention group, patient satisfaction with the virtual coach and for both groups, quality of life. In addition, areas of social and economic disadvantage will be identified that may contribute to higher obesity rates. Machine learning (ML) modeling will be used to determine the important features for weight lost over the course of the study. The impact of this work will be to demonstrate efficacy and realized workflow efficiencies within a hospital-based surgery clinic.
Comparison between hernioplasty alone versus concomitant abdominoplasty with ventral hernia repair regarding efficacy and post-operative recurrence of hernia.
The goal of our work of optimization of the treatment of postoperative hernias is to improve the results of treatment of patients with median and median-lateral postoperative hernias of medium (W2) and large (W3) sizes by developing new surgical techniques. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. To study the topographic and variant anatomy of vessels and nerves in the retromuscular, preperitoneal, postperitoneal and pre-abdominal cell spaces of the anterior abdominal wall. To determine the most probable sources of blood flow and lymph from the anatomical formations forming the bed of the endoprosthesis. 2. To develop technical, surgical techniques that allow to form an implant bed with minimal traumatization of blood vessels and nerves and reduce the risk of postoperative complications. 3. To develop a technique for plasty of the anterior abdominal wall in mid-lateral postoperative hernias with a combination of retromuscular and subaponeurotic spaces. The researchers will compare an experimental group in which a new method of preparing the implant place will be used and a control group in which standard methods of treating postoperative ventral hernias were used to see whether the new method affects the improvement of the postoperative period and the reduction of complications.
This prospective, multicenter, single-arm study is being conducted to confirm safety, effectiveness, and usability of da Vinci Surgical System in performing robotic-assisted surgical procedures.
By comparing the time of closing the hernia ring, the degree of pain, and the recovery of gastrointestinal tract in different groups Intervening, infection, recurrence and medical cost, to find out whether patients with abdominal wall hernia have different hernias It is the best way to close the hernia ring under laparoscopy and provide evidence based medicine. with In the research process of the research group, a database on abdominal wall hernia will be established for the future Further study of hernia has laid a solid foundation.
