An observational study in Umbilical Hernia and Epigastric Hernia, sponsored by Zealand University Hospital. Completed at 1 site in Denmark. Open to participants aged 18 Years to 120 Years, including healthy volunteers. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2023-07-13.
Sponsored by Zealand University Hospital · Observational
Umbilical and epigastric hernia repairs are common and performed by numerous surgical techniques. Considering that the hernia repairs in general are relatively small and simple procedures there are disproportionate poor results.
The aim of present study is to determine surgical risk factors for readmission after umbilical and epigastric hernia repair and to report risk factors for later reoperation for recurrence.
All elective umbilical or epigastric hernias registered in the Danish Ventral Hernia Database are included in the study. The included patients will be followed in up to 4 years in order to identify correlation between technical aspects of the hernia repair and postoperative morbidity.
67 studies on the registry are indexed under Hernia, Umbilical; 13 are open to participants now.
This study's enrollment of 6,783 is above the median of 118 across 25 observational studies indexed under Hernia, Umbilical.
