Trial Outcomes & Findings for Laparoscopic vs. Robotic Ventral Hernia Repair With IPOM (NCT NCT03283982)

NCT ID: NCT03283982

Last Updated: 2022-07-25

Results Overview

Pain scores will be assessed using the Numeric Pain Rating Scale (NRS-11); The 11-point numeric scale ranges from '0' representing one pain extreme (e.g. "no pain") to '10' representing the other pain extreme (e.g. "pain as bad as you can imagine" or "worst pain imaginable"); This will be reported using median and interquartile ranges

Recruitment status
