Does activity before surgery affect recovery after hernia repair?
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This study looks at whether how active you are before hernia surgery can affect your recovery. It may help doctors give better advice to future patients.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You had hernia repair surgery at the University Hospital of Strasbourg between January 2021 and October 2024.
- Your hernia was in the middle of your belly (midline).
- You received a mesh patch to support the repair.

This trial enrolls adults who are scheduled for planned hernia/abdominal wall surgery to learn more about patients’ experiences and follow-up through questionnaires. If you qualify and agree, your study participation may help improve how care is planned around surgery.
This study tests whether guided “core” muscle training after abdominal surgery can lower the chance of developing an incisional hernia and reduce pain. You may be eligible if you’re having abdominal surgery and can safely do the study exercise plan.
This study looks at how your daily physical activity before and after planned surgery affects your recovery and long-term health. The goal is to understand if staying active can help you have fewer complications and better outcomes.
This study looks at how your physical activity before surgery affects your recovery and long-term health. Researchers will track activity levels to see if they predict complications or survival after your operation. This could help tailor care to each patient.
This study tests whether a 6-week exercise program before and after hernia repair surgery helps you recover faster and get back to normal activities with less pain. It involves supervised exercises done at home with video calls.
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.
