What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Hernia recurrence

    Recurrence will be evaluated through physical exam and/or CT scans at all study visits (30 days, 6 months, 1 year, and 2 years), or when patients present with symptoms, with primary endpoint at 2 years.

    Measured: 2 Years

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Number of Medical and Surgical Complications

    Medical and Surgical Complications, including seroma, wound infection or other concurrent infection, hematoma, fistula, ileus, skin necrosis, wound dehiscence, or any other device-related events, will be evaluated through physical exam and/or CT scans at 30 days, 6 months, 1 year, and 2 years, or when patients present with symptoms. These will be reported as total number of each complication within the total number of patients.

    Measured: 2 years

  2. Change in Quality of Life

    Patients will complete questionnaires regarding physical functioning including activities of daily living, work productivity, and patient comfort at various timepoints after implant at baseline, and at all follow-up visits. Outcomes will be reported in the change from baseline to 2-years.

    Measured: Baseline to 2 Years
