A Prospective Study to Compare the Clinical Outcomes, Pain and Patient Quality of Life for Hernia Patients

A Prospective, Multicenter Post-Market Study to Evaluate and Compare the Clinical Outcomes, Pain and Patient Quality of Life After Open, Laparoscopic or Robotic Assisted Hernia (Incisional and Inguinal) Repair

The objective of this prospective, multi-center post-market study is to prospectively collect uniform, evidence based outcomes for patients undergoing open, laparoscopic or robotic assisted hernia repair.

The outcomes that will be collected include various routine clinical parameters, short term patient reported outcomes (quality of life, pain scores) and long term hernia recurrence information. Patients will be treated according to standard of care at the surgeon's institution and patients will be followed up to collect information related to complications information and patient satisfaction associated with the hernia repair procedure.

Inclusion Criteria:

1. Age 18 years and older
2. All patients undergoing either an open, laparoscopic or robotic-assisted
3. Incisional or Inguinal Hernia repair procedure
4. Non-Emergent Incisional or Inguinal Hernia Repair cases

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Emergent Cases for both Incisional and Inguinal Hernia
2. Incisional Hernia related to ostomy formation
3. Incisional Hernia requiring component separation (determined pre-operatively or intraoperatively)
