Study Summary
The purpose of this research study is to measure the clinical effectiveness of two different polypropylene meshes used for laparoscopic inguinal hernias by evaluating subjects' length of hospital stay, perioperative complications, recurrence rate, pain score, comfort level and postoperative quality of life. A secondary goal of the study is to evaluate the ease of use and time it takes surgical residents to place the mesh and perform the surgery using these two different meshes.
Primary Outcome
The primary outcome measure was a comparison of mesh insertion times and were tested using a 2 × 2 ANOVA on the ranked times. Timing of the mesh placement was documented, which included time from mesh insertion in the trocar until completion of mesh fixation. Laparoscopic fixation was performed by placing four tacks; two in the pubic bone, one medial, and one lateral on the upper portion of the mesh. The types of tacks used were AbsorbaTack™ (Medtronics), sutures, CapSure™ (CR Bard) and OptiFix™
