Summary

This study tested a gel called Collabarrier® to see if it can prevent scar tissue from forming after back surgery for a herniated disc or spinal stenosis. 69 adults having their first back surgery were given either Collabarrier® or a similar gel (Guardix-sol). The main goal was to check how much scar tissue formed, seen on an MRI 6 weeks after surgery, and also to measure pain and disability.
