This study is looking at a new way to fix hernias (a bulge caused by an organ pushing through a weak spot in muscle or tissue) using the ECLIPSIUM® System. This system uses a special coating that is applied to the mesh (a surgical material used to repair the hernia) and then hardened with light to hold it in place. Researchers want to see if ECLIPSIUM is as safe and effective as traditional resorbable tacks (small fasteners that dissolve over time) in preventing the hernia from coming back. You could be eligible if you are at least 22 years old and have a specific type of hernia that is 1-5 cm in size. The study will measure if the hernia returns after 6 months and track any complications for 12 months. The current recruitment status is unclear.

Study design

This study is a randomized, active control, single-blind study involving 240 participants. This means participants will be randomly assigned to receive either the ECLIPSIUM System or resorbable tacks, and you won't know which treatment you are receiving.

What's involved

Not specified in the trial record.

Compensation

Not stated in the trial record.

Follow-up

You will be followed for 12 months after your surgery to check for complications, and for 6 months to see if the hernia returns.
