Protocol for the AFTERHERNIA Project: patient-reported outcomes of groin and ventral hernia repair.
Hernia
January 2025
Center for Perioperative Optimization, Department of Surgery, Herlev Hospital, University of Copenhagen, Herlev, Denmark.
Purpose: The AFTERHERNIA Project aims to shift the focus of hernia surgery towards patient-reported outcomes by examining the impact of surgical methods and long-term complications on a national level. Groin and ventral hernia repairs are common surgical procedures with significant impact on patient quality of life and healthcare costs. Most large-scale studies focus on clinical outcomes like reoperation and readmission rates, rather than patient-reported outcomes.

Hernia
January 2025
Department of Surgery, Shouldice Hospital, Markham, ON, Canada.
Purpose: The aim of the study was to evaluate operative time and postoperative complications of 4 post-training specialized surgeons.
Methods: This was a pilot retrospective chart review to determine the learning curve of a Shouldice primary inguinal hernia repair (Shouldice Repair) of 4 post-training specialized surgeons, at the Shouldice Hospital. The first 300 Shouldice Repairs (early learning block) were compared to their 900-1,000 repairs as the primary operating surgeon (late learning block).

Department of Surgery, University of Michigan, 1500 E Medical Center Drive, Ann Arbor, MI, 48109, USA.
Purpose: Decision regret following hernia repair is common, particularly for patients who experience complications. Frailty is a risk factor for complications, but whether frailty is independently associated with regret remains unknown.
Methods: We retrospectively reviewed the Michigan Surgical Quality Collaborative Core Optimization Hernia Registry, a representative sample of adult patients from > 70 hospitals across Michigan.
Cessation vs. no cessation of acetylsalicylic acid preoperatively in laparoscopic totally extraperitoneal inguinal hernia repair (CAPTAIN): interim report from a multicentre, single-blind, randomised controlled trial.
Hernia

Department of Minimally Invasive Surgery, National University Hospital, Bukit Timah, Singapore.
Background: Given the increasing prevalence of antiplatelet agent use and the lack of high-quality evidence, the CAPTAIN trial aimed to investigate the safety and provide recommendations on continuing acetylsalicylic acid perioperatively in patients undergoing elective laparoscopic totally extraperitoneal inguinal hernia repair (LIHR).
Methods: The CAPTAIN trial was a multicentre, surgeon blind, randomized controlled trial conducted from April 2016 to April 2023. Patients undergoing LIHR were eligible for inclusion.
