Transorb™ Self-Gripping Resorbable Mesh in High-risk Subjects Undergoing Open Repair of Ventral Hernia

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

The purpose of RECOVER is to evaluate the performance and safety of Transorb™ self-gripping resorbable mesh in high-risk subjects (at least one risk factor impairing wound healing) when used for reinforcement of abdominal wall soft tissues in procedures involving open extraperitoneal ventral hernia repair, in clean (US); and clean and clean-contaminated (Europe) surgical fields (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Classification I and II. Data from this study will primarily be used to support market approval and European post-market clinical follow-up needs. Secondarily, data will be used for product marketing, future product development, and to support market release and maintenance in global geographies.
