Arm 2

Arm Type

Experimental

No Intervention

Arm Label

Sepraspray

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Efficacy: Primary efficacy endpoints include the incidence of adhesions to the midline incision

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary: efficacy endpoints include the extent of adhesions to the midline incision and the severity of adhesions to the midline incision.
Safety: safety endpoints include assessments of adverse events, vital signs, incisional wound healing, clinical laboratory evaluations, and concomitant medications.
