Inguinal Hernia clinical trials in Texas
We’re tracking 4 recruiting inguinal hernia studies with a site in Texas, each written for real people, not researchers.
Recruiting studies in Texas
- NCT07181876Recruiting
Study of robotic hernia repair with Dexter system
This study tests a robotic system for fixing groin hernias (inguinal hernias) using small incisions. It is for adults scheduled for hernia repair surgery who want to see how well the robot helps.
Houston, TexasAges 22 years+ - NCT07298317Recruiting
Robotic system for inguinal hernia repair
This trial tests a new robotic system (called OTTAVA) for repairing inguinal hernias. It aims to see if the system is safe and works well, potentially offering a less invasive option for surgery.
Houston, TexasAges 22 years+ - NCT04779918Recruiting
Robotic hernia repair using OviTex implant mesh
This trial studies whether using a specific implant “mesh” (OviTex) during robotic hernia surgery helps patients heal well and report less pain and better quality of life over time. It may be an option if you have a ventral or inguinal hernia planned for elective robotic repair.
Houston, TexasAges 21 years+ - NCT06879912Recruiting
Study of force feedback tools in robot-assisted surgery
This trial tests new force feedback instruments in the da Vinci 5 robot during surgery. It aims to see if they help surgeons perform procedures more precisely for conditions like cancer or other diseases.

What taking part in a inguinal hernia study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.
Common questions
- Are there inguinal hernia clinical trials in Texas?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 4 recruiting inguinal hernia studies with a site in Texas, each rewritten in plain language so you can see what it's testing and who it's for.
- How do I find out if I qualify for a inguinal hernia study in Texas?
- Each study lists its eligibility rules — age, diagnosis, prior treatments. On every trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Do I have to live in Texas to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in Texas, but eligibility is about your health, not your address — some people travel to take part, and a few studies reimburse travel. The study team can tell you what's required.
- Does it cost anything to join a inguinal hernia trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what's covered before you decide.
Not the right time?
New inguinal hernia studies open in Texas regularly. Set up a health profile and we’ll quietly watch for studies that fit you and email you when one opens.
Clin2 helps you find and understand clinical trials and does not provide medical advice. Study data comes from ClinicalTrials.gov. Talk with your doctor about whether a specific trial is right for you.
