Conditions

Hiatal Hernia

Brief summary

Miromatrix Medical has developed MIROMESH® - a new, noncrosslinked, acellular mesh derived from the highly vascularized porcine liver. MIROMESH received FDA 510(k) clearance with an indication for reinforcement of soft tissue on March 31, 2014 under K134033. This study will serve to provide clinicians with high-quality clinical data in order to provide them with a higher degree of confidence when selecting MIROMESH for hiatal hernia repair.

Inclusion criteria

* between 18 and 80 years old on the day of study enrollment * able and willing to sign the consent form and comply with all study visits and procedures * able to undergo elective laparoscopic hiatal hernia repair * free of cognitive or speech impairment * documented, symptomatic type II or III hernia ≥5cm in the axial/vertical dimension * commit to non-smoking for at least 4 weeks prior to procedure

Exclusion criteria

* previous operation of the esophagus or stomach * sensitivity to porcine material * pregnant or plan to be pregnant within next 2 years * immunocompromised or at risk of immunosuppression (i.e. be HIV positive, be experiencing organ rejection, be a recent or anticipated chemotherapy recipient) as determined by the Investigator * require emergent operation for acute gastric volvulus or strangulation * American Society of Anesthesiology (ASA) class 4 or greater * BMI ≥40 * life expectancy of less than 2 years at the time of enrollment * associated gastrointestinal disease that requires extensive medical or surgical intervention that might interfere with the quality of life assessment (e.g. Crohn's disease) * any condition in the opinion of the Investigator that would preclude the use of the study device, or preclude the subject from completing the follow-up requirements

MeasureTime frameDescription
GERD-HRQL2 yearsThe Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease Health Related Quality of Life (GERD-HRQL) scale assess on symptoms associated with gastroesophageal reflux disease. There are 10 questions (each representing a GERD symptom such as heartburn) answered on a 6-point scale of 0 - 6 with 0 indicating no symptoms and 5 indicating incapacitating symptoms. The answer to all questions are summed to give you a final score on the scale. Scores may range for 0 (no symptoms) to 50 (incapacitating symptoms).
