Filter by:This study assess the (cost-)effectiveness of open versus laparoscopic Percutaneous Inguinal Ring Suturing (PIRS) technique for unilateral inguinal hernia repair in children aged 0-16 years.
Many patients undergoing inguinal hernia repair are prone to developing acute and chronic post-operative pain. The aim of the study is to show a possible correlation between pain and acute phase proteins in order to: - predict the severity of pain; - select most suitable pain relief therapy for the patient.
In the present pilot study, a possible relation between the implantation of PP mesh for inguinal hernia, vaginal prolapse and SUI repair and subsequent systemic auto-immune complaints is investigated by testing immunologic and allergic responses in fifty patients with suspected ASIA syndrome. Additional value of MAT is investigated and effectiveness of (partial) PP mesh removal for these complaints is assessed. If so, a profound insight in diagnostics and treatment for systematic complaints will be attained that may provide opportunities for future diagnostics.
This study was designed to compare the outcome of 3 point with 1 point lightweight mesh fixation in TAPP surgery for patients with inguinal hernia. The main outcome include seroma, chronic pain, recurrence, et al.
Pelvic pain is under-reported in healthy adults. Many patients with pelvic pain under-estimate the problem. Chronic pelvic pain can be managed properly, if diagnosed promptly. This is a quantitative analysis of prospective clinical data. It evaluates the management of pelvic pain in a cohort population, and analyzes the treatment outcome.
This prospective randomized study will evaluate the effectiveness of laryngeal mask airway (LMA) versus endotracheal intubation (ETT) for patients undergoing laparoscopic inguinal hernia at CMH.
The investigators hypothesize that not prescribing opioids after uncomplicated, outpatient IHR will be non-inferior to prescribing opioids (5 tablets of Oxycodone, 5mg; or surgeon preference for intolerance) with respect to requests for opioid refills. Additionally, the investigators believe there will be no significant difference in postoperative readmission for pain quality of life at 30 days in either group.
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).
Lower abdominal operations; especially inguinal hernia repairs are one of the most frequently performed operations in the daily practice of pediatric surgeries.Regional anesthesia techniques are frequently and effectively used methods in postoperative pain control. Main purpose of this study is to compare the analgesic effect of ultrasound-guided erector spinae plane block and caudal block in pediatric unilateral inguinal hernia operations
When conducting the Shouldice procedure the 4-layer suture of the transversalis fascia is usually done with Prolene worldwide. At the Shouldice hospital the wire has originally been used for these augmentation. During the last decade several Shouldice Surgeons started to use the Prolene due to occasional delivery problems of the wire from Germany. The 1-year- recurrence rate at the Shouldice hospital is 1,15% (mainly wire-use). The published 1-year recurrence rate in Europe is 2%. As quality assessment, this project intends to evaluate these two options for suturing (wire vs Prolene) in the elective inguinal hernia patient in terms of 1-year recurrence rate. The population of focus will be those who had a primary or secondary inguinal hernia operation at Shouldice Hospital and the project is estimated to take 3 months.
