Study Summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and cost-effectiveness of a tailored physical therapy (PT) intervention targeting Abdominal Core Health components in patients recovering from ventral hernia repair. The study focuses on patients aged 18-75 diagnosed with a ventral transverse hernia between 4 cm and 10 cm, scheduled for elective Ventral Hernia Repair (VHR). The main questions it aims to answer are: * Will tailored PT significantly improve abdominal core strength, biomechanical stability, and functional mobility compared to usual care at 3-months post-surgery? * Will tailored PT lead to higher patient-reported quality of life and satisfaction scores, with a lower incidence of post-operative complications such as bowel obstruction and pelvic floor dysfunction over a 1-year follow-up? * Will tailored PT result in decreased healthcare utilization, leading to overall cost savings or neutrality compared to usual care over the first year after VHR? Researchers will compare the tailored physical therapy group to a usual care group to see if the tailored intervention leads to significant improvements in clinical efficacy, patient outcomes, and cost-effectiveness. Participants will: * Be randomly assigned to either the Usual Care Group or the PT Group. * If in the Usual Care Group, receive standard post-operative instructions for 12 weeks, including guidance on binder use, safe lifting, and gradual return to activities. * If in the PT Group, receive foundational post-operative instructions for the first 2 weeks (similar to usual care). Undergo 6 structured and individualized PT sessions over 10 weeks if in the PT Group, with progression based on Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) and Pelvic Floor Distress Inventory-20 (PFDI-20) scores, including Symptom Modulation, Movement Control, Functional Optimization, or Impairment-Based interventions. Participants undergo data collection at 2 weeks, 12 weeks, and 1 year post-operation, including im
