Summary

The purpose of this study is to use a scale to learn more about the tension of the abdominal wall in hernia repairs without component separation.

1. What is the abdominal wall tension for hernias repaired without a component separation?
2. What patient factors contribute to greater abdominal wall tension?
3. Is there an association between abdominal wall tension before primary closure or bridging repair and patient outcomes?

Participants will be asked to allow their surgeon to use a tension scale to measure the tension of the abdominal wall during surgery.
