Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Technical errors with the robotic system

Number and type of technical errors or device-related issues encountered during the procedure.

Time frame
During surgery
2

Operative time

Total operative time from skin incision to skin closure

Time frame
During surgery
3

Complication Rate

Intraoperative, in-hospital and postoperative complications classified according to the Clavien-Dindo classification

Time frame
From surgery until 1 month postoperatively
4

Success rate

success rate of preperitoneal mesh placement

Time frame
From surgery until planned follow-up 1 month potoperatively

Secondary outcomes

1

EuraHS Quality of Life score

Patient-reported quality of life assessed using the European Registry for Abdominal Wall Hernias Quality of Life (EuraHS-QoL) Questionnaire, a validated instrument evaluating pain at the hernia site, restriction of activities, and cosmetic discomfort. The total EuraHS-QoL score ranges from 0 to 90, with lower scores indicating better quality of life and less symptom burden, and higher scores indicating worse quality of life and greater symptom burden

Time frame
Preoperatively, 1 month and 1 year postoperatively
2

Body Image Questionnaire Score

Patient-reported body image assessed using the Body Image Questionnaire. The questionnaire evaluates patient satisfaction with physical appearance and cosmetic outcomes

Time frame
Preoperatively, 1 month , and 1 year postoperatively
3

Number of Participants With Hernia Recurrence

Number of participants with a recurrent ventral hernia within 1 year after surgery. Hernia recurrence will be assessed clinically and confirmed by ultrasound when clinically indicated.

Time frame
1 year postoperatively
