From: A pectin-honey hydrogel prevents postoperative intraperitoneal adhesions in a rat model
Grade | |
|---|---|
0 | No adhesions |
1 | Smooth adhesions that split either spontaneously or upon application of weak traction |
2 | Firm adhesions splitting when traction is applied |
3 | Dense adhesions requiring dissection with a blade |
