Testing a new mesh fixation system for laparoscopic hernia repair
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This study is testing a new system (ECLIPSIUM) for fixing mesh during laparoscopic hernia repair. It aims to see if the system is safe and works well for people with a single midline hernia (ventral, umbilical, or incisional) that is small to medium size (1-5 cm). If you qualify, the study will help doctors repair your hernia with a special mesh that may reduce complications.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 22 years or older.
- You have a single primary hernia (ventral, umbilical, or incisional) that is about 1 to 5 cm wide (measured during surgery).
- You are scheduled for a laparoscopic hernia repair with mesh (the type of mesh the study uses).
- You are willing to follow the study's instructions and come for follow-up visits.
- You do not smoke more than one cigarette a day, and your BMI is 40 or less.
- You have not had a previous hernia repaired with mesh in this same area.

This study looks at a laparoscopic (keyhole) operation to repair a groin (inguinal) hernia using a 3D “visible” mesh, with or without an added fixation method. If you have a first-time hernia on one side and are planning a laparoscopic repair, this trial may be an option to discuss with your surgical team.
This trial compares two types of mesh used during surgery to fix a hiatal hernia in people with acid reflux. It aims to see which mesh works better for preventing the hernia from coming back.
This trial tests a new 3D mesh (Optomesh 3D) for repairing a first-time inguinal hernia using laparoscopic surgery. The goal is to see how safe and effective the mesh is without using extra fixation. This could mean a simpler procedure and possibly less pain after surgery.
This trial is comparing two minimally invasive surgery techniques for fixing ventral hernias (a bulge in your belly wall). One technique places the mesh inside the belly, the other places it outside the belly lining. The goal is to see which approach leads to better recovery.
This trial compares two types of mesh used during laparoscopic surgery to fix an inguinal hernia on one side while also repairing a small, symptom-free hernia on the other side. The goal is to see if one mesh causes less long-term pain than the other.
This study compares two ways of securing the mesh during keyhole surgery for inguinal hernia. It may help reduce pain and recovery time.
