Filter by:The purpose of the study is to determine the feasibility and efficacy of performing Fetoscopic Endoluminal Tracheal Occlusion (FETO) surgery and removal of the BALT Goldbal2 balloon at the UW Health Fetal Diagnosis and Treatment Center which resides in UnityPoint Health-Meriter (UPH-Meriter) hospital as well as the American Family Children's Hospital (AFCH). We hypothesize that FETO balloon placement and removal can be performed safely at our institution and may increase survival and decrease morbidity when compared to standard prenatal care for the treatment of severe left or right congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH).
TIGER is a multicentre, 2-arm, parallel group, assessor blinded, non-inferiority randomised controlled trial with an internal pilot to assess if non-surgeon physicians (NSPs) can effectively perform mesh inguinal hernia repair compared to fully trained surgeons in adult patients with non-complicated inguinal hernia.
To study the prevalence of hiatus hernia in GERD patients underwent upper endoscopy To study the effect of hiatus hernia on the severity of GERD symptoms.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the effects of single-level and bi-level erector spinae plane block in open inguinal hernia repair surgery. The main question it aims to answer are: - Whether bi-level ESP block will improve pain control after open inguinal hernia repair surgery - Whether bi-level ESP block will improve quality of recovery after open inguinal hernia repair surgery Participants will receive erector spinae plane block, and will be randomised into 2 groups, single-level ESP block and bi-level ESP block, before open hernia repair surgery. They will be followed up after operation for assessment of pain control and quality of recovery.
The goal of this observational study is to compare body weigth with the prediceted weigth values abtracted by weigth estimation methods in Turkish Children. The main question it aims to answer is: to evaluate the suitability of APLS, Luscombe & Owens, Best Guess, Nelson Formula and Broselow Band methods in estimating actual measurements in patients coming to the surgery outpatient clinic of our hospital
The present proposal aims to asses which is the optimal treatment strategy in a clinical study in patients with paraoesophageal hernia (PEH), a condition often found in elderly, fragile patients The investigator want to study the optimal approach to a paraoesophageal hernia (PEH) repair. The incidence of PEH increases with age and the older patient typically has additional co-morbidities, reduced physiological fitness, and frailty which makes surgery challenging regarding increased morbidity and mortality. Thus, the decision to offer surgery can be challenging in this cohort of patients. The need of an anti-reflux procedure as part of the repair is one of the main subjects for discussion worldwide. To date no consensus exists and many surgical centres do a routine anti-reflux procedure as part of their standard operation for PEH. But is this procedure redundant? Can the patients be managed with a less complicated procedure; an anterior gastropexy with comparable outcome?
Parastomal hernia (PSH) is difficult to manage, with high rates of post-operative recurrence and complication. Keyhole and Sugarbaker are the most commonly used techniques in the surgical repair of the PSH. However, the efficacy and safety of the two surgical methods have not been adequately compared in the East Asian population. Patients diagnosed with PSH who underwent Sugarbaker or Keyhole repair from August 2012 to August 2022 will be included. Patient demographic data and postoperative outcomes will be retrospectively analyzed. The primary outcome measure is the recurrence rate at one year follow-up time.
This is a prospective observational study in people treated with peritoneal dialysis for kidney failure to investigate whether estimated intraperitoneal pressure (eIPP) is correlated with non-infectious PD-related complications in end-stage renal failure patients. It looks to understand how both peritoneal dialysis complications (including fluid leaks and hernias) along with gastrointestinal symptoms are associated with eIPP in people treated with PD.
In this study, motor control exercises including cervical region, upper extremity and scapular region muscles will be applied routinely in individuals with chronic neck pain. The application will been investigating, called motor imagery training, will been carried out together with motor control exercises.
The goal of this study is to see which of two types of mesh is better for fixing an umbilical hernia. One type of mesh is an absorbable synthetic mesh, which goes away on its own in the body, and the other type of mesh is a non-absorbable mesh, which stays in the body forever. The researchers will check if the hernia comes back, how it affects the patient's quality of life, and if there are any problems after the surgery during a three-year period.
