Study summary

The study is a single-arm, retrospective, chart review with a patient questionnaire intended to supplement the patient chart, when necessary. The population will consist of patients who underwent an index gynecologic surgery (performed at least 2 years prior to the start of the study) during which COSEAL was used as an adjunct to good surgical technique to reduce the incidence, severity, and extent of post-surgical adhesion formation. The purpose of the study is to detect the incidence of adhesion-related morbidities as measured by the proportion of adhesion-related readmissions, including reoperations in these patients.

Patient charts will be reviewed to collect the data on readmissions related to adhesions, If the patient chart has no record of adhesion related readmission within approximately 2 years of the index surgery, then a patient questionnaire will be sent. A questionnaire may still be sent if a patient chart has a record of adhesion related readmission within approximately 2 years of the index surgery and further clarification is needed. The questionnaire will collect information regarding readmission or reoperation directly or possibly related to adhesions following the index gynecologic surgical procedure at a hospital or outpatient clinic other than that of the index surgery.

Study population

Data will be collected from adult female patient charts in whom COSEAL was used as an adjunct to good surgical technique to reduce the incidence, severity, and extent of post-surgical adhesion formation. Data will also be collected from the questionnaire responses, when necessary

Inclusion criteria

  1. Adult female patients who, at the time of surgery, were ≥18 years of age and who have undergone an index gynecologic surgery at least 2 years prior to the start of the study.
  2. Patients in whom COSEAL was used for the reduction of post-surgical adhesion formation

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Patients who had frank infection in the abdominopelvic cavity at the time of the surgery

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Incidence of hospital readmissions directly or possibly related to adhesions following the use of COSEAL in gynecologic surgery, approximately 2 years from the date of index surgery.

    Patient charts will be reviewed to collect the data on readmissions related to adhesions, which are defined as: * Directly related to adhesions (adhesiolysis, non-operative readmissions for adhesions, and adhesiolysis operations on female reproductive tract); * Possibly related to adhesions (gynecologic operations, abdominal surgery, and nonoperative readmissions); * Open or laparoscopic reoperations that could potentially be complicated by present adhesions

    Time frame: within 2 years of surgery

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Aug 3, 2025, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
