Exercise Therapy After Caudal Epidural Steroid Injection
**Brief Summary** Lumbar radicular pain arising from intervertebral disc herniation is commonly managed with a caudal epidural steroid injection (CESI), a minimally invasive procedure that delivers anti-inflammatory medication to the sacral hiatus. Although CESI affords short-term analgesia, a sizable proportion of patients continue to experience pain-related disability and diminished quality …
Clonidine in Ultrasound-guided Rectus Sheath Block for Outpatient Umbilical Hernioplasty
This clinical trial aims to evaluate the effectiveness of an ultrasound-guided nerve block technique as the sole anesthetic method for patients undergoing outpatient umbilical hernia surgery. The procedure, called rectus sheath block (RSB), involves injecting local anesthetic near the abdominal muscles to reduce pain during and after surgery. The study …
Biological OviTex Versus Synthetic Graft in Robotic Prolapse Surgery
This prospective study aims to assess the efficacy of the OviTex 1S permanent mesh in pelvic floor surgery in comparison with the current standard polypropylene mesh.
Flemish Inguinal and Femoral Hernia Prospective Registry
Prospective registry. The purpose of this clinical trial will be to measure surgical outcome parameters (e.g. recurrence, chronic pain and other quality indicators) after inguinal hernia repair using Patient Reported Outcome Measures (PROMs) in the short- and long-term.
Patient-reported Outcomes for Patients Undergoing Surgery at Shouldice Hospital.
Background Previous publications have highlighted limited data on patient outcomes and experiences at Shouldice Hospital. Existing studies from Europe reported outcomes following Shouldice repair but lacked recent data. The current project seeks to optimize patient care and knowledge through systematic follow-up. Study Objectives: Establish a patient-reported outcome measure follow-up program. …
Effect of Hernia Sac Excision on Crural Tension in Paraesophageal Hernia Repair
Paraesophageal hernia can cause significant clinical symptoms, including reflux, chest pain, nausea, regurgitation, and even life threatening conditions such as bowel obstruction, and gastric volvulus. Repair of a paraesophageal hernia is associated with significant recurrence rate, with primary repair often in excess of 50%. Hernia recurrence and revisional surgery significantly …
Posterior Rectus Sheath Hiatal Augmentation in Paraesophageal Hernia Repair
This study will be a prospective observation study of the use of PoRSHA for repair in patients with challenging paraesophageal hernias. One of the most challenging problems facing foregut surgeons is the large and complex paraesophageal hernia (PEH) repair in the older patient. The investigator has demonstrated good outcomes and …
Hernia Repair Using the Totally ExtraPeritoneal (TEP) Laparoscopic Approach Without Curare and Without Orotracheal Intubation.
Laparoscopic treatment of inguinal hernia with the totally extraperitoneal approach (TEP) is indicated for simple and bilateral inguinal hernias. It consists of placing a large prosthesis in the posterior position by direct access to the extra-peritoneal space. This prosthesis is interposed between the defective wall and the peritoneum. Unlike the …
Factors Influencing the Results of Treatment in Patients With Hernias of Various Localizations
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 …
Diaphragmatic Hernia Research & Exploration, Advancing Molecular Science
The goal of this study is to identify genes that convey susceptibility to congenital diaphragmatic hernia in humans. The identification of such genes, and examination of their structure and function, will enable a delineation of molecular pathogenesis and, ultimately, prevention or treatment of congenital diaphragmatic hernia. There are many different …
