Clinical trials: Complex Ventral Hernia
Analgesia
Epidural Anesthesia /Analgesia Versus PCA for Laparoscopic Complex Ventral Hernia Repair: A Randomized Controlled Trial
We plan to demonstrate the superiority of epidural anaesthesia/analgesia in repairs of large ventral hernias as compared with a conventional narcotic analgesia regimen. We hypothesize that: 1.
