  Recruiting The University of Texas Health Science Center, Houston · Houston, Texas · NCT07848386

• Pre‑surgery optimisation for ventral hernia repair

  This trial tests whether a structured pre-surgery programme to boost activity, encourage weight loss, and optimise other health problems helps adults with 4–8 cm ventral hernias have fewer complications after surgery.

  Recruiting at 3 sites Umeå University · Gällivare, Norrbotten County and 4 other locations · NCT07316426

• Mesh fixation for ventral hernia repair using ECLIPSIUM device

  This trial tests whether the ECLIPSIUM bioresorbable fixation system can securely hold mesh in ventral hernia repairs and reduce recurrences compared with bioresorbable tacks.

  Recruiting at 8 sites Tissium · Loma Linda, California and 11 other locations · NCT07277946

• Pre-surgery BOTOX to help close very large ventral hernias

  This test tries a one-time image-guided BOTOX injection into the side abdominal muscles 3–7 weeks before open repair to see if it helps surgeons fully close very large ventral hernias in adults.

  Recruiting Phase 4 The Cleveland Clinic · Cleveland, Ohio · NCT07220382

• Long-term outcomes after FETO for severe left or right congenital diaphragmatic hernia

  This trial will test whether performing FETO in fetuses with isolated severe left or right CDH helps more babies survive to hospital discharge and have fewer long-term problems than standard care.

  Recruiting Johns Hopkins University · Baltimore, Maryland · NCT07166172

• Patient outcomes for hernia surgery at Shouldice Hospital

  This study looks at how patients feel after having hernia surgery at Shouldice Hospital to see how well they recover and how satisfied they are with their care.

  Recruiting Shouldice Hospital · Thornhill, Ontario · NCT06039800

• Collecting samples from patients with colorectal and gastric cancers and non-malignant diseases

  This study is collecting blood and tissue samples from patients with colorectal and gastric cancers, as well as non-cancerous gastrointestinal diseases, to help with future research.

  Recruiting Renmin Hospital of Wuhan University · Wuhan, Hubei · NCT03972956

• Laparoscopic repair of groin hernias using a special visible mesh

  This study is testing a new type of visible mesh for fixing groin hernias to see if it works better and is safer than using glue for the procedure.
