Adhesions Abdominal Clinical Trial
Official title:
Efficacy and Safety of Purified Starch for Adhesion Prevention in Colorectal Surgery
Intra-abdominal adhesion occurs in up to 90% of patients after abdominal surgery. Many patient will undergo a second surgery for temporary stoma closure, therefore these ostomy closure operations can give an opportunity to evaluate adhesion caused by previous operations. This study was conducted to use second surgery to investigate the anti-adhesion effect of purified starch among patients who underwent colorectal surgery.
Data was analyzed from the medical records of patients who underwent a second surgery after colectomy between January 2020 and April 2022. Patient were allocated to either the purified starch group and control group. Since January 2020, adhesion scores have been registered in operation note when patients undergo a second colorectal surgery. The primary outcomes in this study were adhesion severity and adhesion area. The secondary outcomes were operation time, blood loss, and postopera-tive complications. ;
