Text: Use of adhesion barrier was associated with significant reduction in overall adhesion scores (mean, 6. 11 vs. 9. 67 ; P < 0. 0005), four-quadrant adhesion scores (Quadrant A : 1. 68 vs. 2. 52, P = 0. 002 ; Quadrant B : 1. 42 vs. 2. 33, P < 0. 0005 ; Quadrant C : 1. 42 vs. 2. 24, P < 0. 0005 ; Quadrant D : 1. 58 vs. 2. 48, P = 0. 002), and proportion of patients with dense (scores > or = 8) adhesions (0. 11 vs. 0. 71 ; P < 0. 0005).
