Personalized physical therapy for hernia recovery
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This trial tests if a personalized physical therapy program before and after hernia surgery can help you recover better and build a stronger core. It is for people planning to have hernia repair surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial tests a 4-week program of exercise, nutrition, and lifestyle support before ventral hernia surgery to help reduce complications. If you have a hernia smaller than 8 cm and at least one health risk factor, this might help you prepare for a safer recovery.
This study tests whether a supervised exercise program before hernia repair surgery helps frail older adults recover better. The program includes physical exercises and breathing muscle training.
This study is testing a new way to treat and improve life with a ventral hernia (a hernia in the belly area). It's for people with an incisional hernia or a parastomal hernia.
This trial tests two less invasive surgery methods for repairing ventral hernias (bulges in the belly area). It may be an option if you have a hernia on your belly wall that isn't in the groin and haven't had hernia repair before.
This trial tests a study drug (AGN-151607-DP) in adults having open surgery to repair a ventral hernia in the middle of the belly. It looks at side effects and how the hernia responds to treatment.
This trial tests a pre-surgery optimization program for people with ventral hernias. It aims to improve outcomes before and after the operation.
