Adhesion Prevention in ASBO Surgery Using 4DryField® PH
Post-surgical adhesions occur in up to 90% of abdominal surgeries, often leading to complications like adhesive small bowel obstruction (ASBO) and chronic pain. They result from imbalanced healing processes influenced by growth factors, fibroblast activity, and genetic predispositions. While surgery can relieve ASBO, it frequently causes new adhesions, with recurrence rates up to 40%. Anti-adhesion barriers, such as the starch-based 4DryField® PH, form a temporary gel barrier to support healing. Though promising, its role in preventing ASBO recurrence is not well studied. This study evaluates whether intra-operative use of 4DryField® PH reduces ASBO recurrence over 12 months and compares perioperative outcomes in treated vs. untreated patients.
