• Research summary

  A prospective international cohort study of parastomal hernia (PSH) treatment, including both operative and non-operative interventions. A global network of clinicians and specialist nurses will collate detailed information on individual interventions used and short-term outcomes, then patients will provide their own medium and longer-term outcomes data including whether their treatment was successful, via a secure online/mobile phone-based system. The study will provide a wealth of contemporaneous information which will improve our ability to counsel patients and facilitate improved selection of appropriate and personalised interventions for those with a PSH.
