Recruit Status: Completed
Study Type: Observational

Official Title: Risk Factors for Morbidity After Incisional Hernia Repairs

Brief Summary: The Danish Ventral Hernia Database (DVHD) registers 37 different perioperative parameters. The aim of present study is to use large-scale data from DVHD to uncover risk factors for readmission, reoperation (any indication), death and reoperation for recurrence after incisional hernia repair.

Detailed Summary: All principal incisional hernias registered in the Danish Ventral Hernia Database are included in the study. The included patients will be followed in up to 4 years in order to identify correlation between technical aspects of the hernia repair and postoperative morbidity.
Sponsor: University Hospital Koge

Current Primary Outcome:

• Recurrence repair [ Time Frame: up to 4 years ]
  Risk factors for recurrence repair after incisional hernia repair
• Readmission [ Time Frame: 30 days after operation ]
  Riskfactors for readmission within 30 days after incisional hernia repair
• Reoperation [ Time Frame: 30 days ]
  Riskfactors for reoperation (any procedure) within 30 days after incisional hernia repair
• Death [ Time Frame: 30 days ]
  Riskfactors for death within 30 days after incisional hernia repair

Original Primary Outcome: Same as current
