Using Crowdsourcing as a Platform to Evaluate Lay Perception of Prophylactic Mesh Placement

Journal of Surgical Research, 2019
Prophylactic mesh placement (PMP) at the time of open abdominal surgery has gained momentum over the last decade. However, there remains an identifiable gap in the literature regarding patient-reported outcomes and qualitative metrics. In effort to gauge the population's understanding or familiarity with PMP, this study provides an educational ...
