Overview

Detecting Accuracy of transabdominal ultrasound in detecting intraperitoneal adhesions prior to laparoscopy ( which is the gold standard to visualize adhesions ) to detect safety of 1ry trocar insertion .

Interventions

  • Procedure laparoscopy
    Laparoscopy
  • Diagnostic test transabdominal ultrasound
    Transabdominal ultrasound sliding sign

Primary outcome measures

  • Sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), and negative predictive value (NPV) of Transabdominal sliding sign for detection of intraperitoneal adhesions [Time frame: Day 1 (from patient selection until the laparoscopic operation is done and presence and type of adhesions is revealed.)]

Eligibility criteria

Inclusion criteria

  • Women scheduled for elective laparoscopy.
  • Women with history of previous laparotomies.
  • Women with previous transverse suprapubic and/or any midline incision.
  • Women with previous caesarean section.

Exclusion criteria

  • Women with Emergency laparoscopic surgeries (e.g., acute abdomen).
  • Pregnancy at time of operation.
  • Morbid obesity (BMI > 40kg/m²), as excessive adipose tissue may limit ultrasound imaging.
  • Severe medical conditions affecting participation (e.g., severe cardiac or pulmonary disease.

Criteria are shown verbatim from the registry (in English). Final eligibility is always assessed by the study center.
