PMCF Study for ADEPT® in LaparoscopicGynecologic Surgery
United States, Germany153 participantsStarted 2023-06-26
Plain-language summary
Postoperative adhesions develop in most patients after gynecologic surgery, likely resulting in significant morbidity, complications, and considerable increases in healthcare costs. Good surgical techniques, including a minimally invasive approach, may reduce adhesions and minimize the abovementioned complications. The agents for prevention or reduction of adhesion formation are placed inside the abdominal cavity, and especially in the pelvic cavity, which contains the female reproductive organs. ADEPT Adhesion Reduction Solution, hereinafter referred to as ADEPT, is intended for use as an intraperitoneal instillate for the reduction of adhesions following gynecological laparoscopic surgeries. The objective of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of ADEPT by detecting the incidence of adhesion-related morbidities (adhesion-related readmissions, including reoperations) after laparoscopic gynecologic surgery through a single-arm, retrospective, chart review with a patient questionnaire intended to supplement the patient chart.

AI-rewrites the medical criteria so a patient or caregiver can understand them. Always confirm with the trial site.
Inclusion Criteria:
* Adult female patients who, at the time of surgery, were ≥ 18 years of age and who had undergone an index laparoscopic gynecologic surgery at least 2 years prior to the start of the study.
* Patients in whom ADEPT® was used as an irrigant during the index laparoscopic gynecologic surgical procedure and as an intraperitoneal instillate for the reduction of adhesions following laparoscopic surgery.
Exclusion Criteria:
* Patients who had frank infection in the abdominopelvic cavity at the time of the surgery.
* Patients who were pregnant or nursing at the time of the surgery.
Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?
Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.
Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
