Here’s what you need to know before your next complex hernia repair.
Hernia Repair
Patients from lower socioeconomic circumstances face higher 30 and 90-day hospital readmission rates following ventral and inguinal hernia repair.
Surgeons increasingly want to reduce obesity and BMI for their complex ventral hernia patients to reduce complications and recurrence.
Implementing ERAS protocol with patients prior to open complex ventral hernia repair might just be the key to reducing recurrence rates.
Artificial intelligence tool may accurately forecast hernia repair outcomes and predict hernia surgery complexity.
We talked with the director of Abdominal Core Health Quality Initiative (ACHQC) about this clinical shift.
