Stratification of surgical site infection by operative factors and comparison of infection rates after hernia repair [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
OBJECTIVE: The National Healthcare Safety Network does not risk adjust surgical site infection (SSI) rates after hernia repair by operative factors. We investigated whether operative factors are associated with risk of SSI after hernia repair.

PREVALENCE AND RISK FACTORS OF INCISIONAL HERNIA: AN OBSERVATIONAL STUDY [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Infection at the surgical site, which leads to the development of excessive tension causing inadequate healing is the most common cause of incisional hernia. Objective: To find out risk factors associated with incisional hernia and its prevalence. Method:

Gel-Electrophoresis and Diffusion of Ring-Shaped DNA [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
A model for the motion of ring-shaped DNA in a gel is introduced and studied by numerical simulations and a mean-field approximation. The ring motion is mediated by finger-shaped loops (hernias) that move in an amoeba-like fashion around the gel obstructions. This constitutes an extension of previous reptation tube treatments.

Female sex as independent risk factor for chronic pain following elective incisional hernia repair: registry-based, propensity score-matched comparison

open access: yesHernia, 2019
Introduction To date, little attention has been paid by surgical scientific studies to sex as a potential influence factor on the outcome. Therefore, there is a sex bias in the surgical literature.

Innovations for Incisional Hernia Prevention

open access: yesJournal of Abdominal Wall Surgery, 2022
Incisional hernias are the most frequent long-term complication of abdominal surgery, resulting in considerable patient morbidity and increased health care costs. These hernias frequently result from excessive tension concentrated at points along the suture line of the abdominal closure.

Role of laparoscopy in incisional hernia and relative benefit of the laparoscopic incisional hernia repair to the open incisional hernia repair

open access: yesInternational Surgery Journal, 2020
Background: Incisional hernia is a common complication of abdominal surgery. Historically the open repair with or without mesh was the mainstay of treatment. However, many recently published laparoscopic repair studies have challenged surgeons to re-evaluate which technique provides the best short and long term outcomes.Methods: The study was conducted

Overcoming the Force Limitations of Magnetic Robotic Surgery: Impact-based Tetherless Suturing [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
Magnetic robotics obviate the physical connections between the actuators and end effectors resulting in ultra-minimally invasive surgeries. Even though such a wireless actuation method is highly advantageous in medical applications, the trade-off between the applied force and miniature magnetic end effector dimensions has been one of the main ...
