Assessments and Plans:
reducible LEFT/RIGHT/BILATERAL inguinal hernia
reducible umbilical/incisional hernia
I have discussed with the patient the
diagnosis and findings.
I have also discussed with the patient the treatment
options including surgery and non-surgical options as well as alternatives.
For surgical procedure proposed, we discussed the risks which includes, but are not limited to, postoperative or chronic pain, bleeding, wound infection, hematoma, or need for further procedures or workup.
Other Complications may include deep vein thrombosis(blood clots), as well as other side effects affecting other organ systems such as the heart or lungs, and in rare circumstances, death as a result of the above complications.
The patient understand and agrees to proceed with the proposed procedure.
Patient is instructed on light activity and notify us if worsening of symptoms prior to procedure
