Please see above what happens, if surgeons don't use any adhesion barriers...
And here you can see that even if using the best adhesion barrier available (SprayShield / SprayGel), but WITH carbon dioxide,
adhesiolysis surgery is in most cases USELESS.
This happens after a long laparoscopic adhesiolysis with carbon dioxide gas:

and after applying SprayShield / SprayGel: you see only some punctual clothing of SprayShield / SprayGel, it doesn't stick to the peritoneum,
that is acidotic and hypoxemic, It is also slipping down away from the wounded area !

And here a similar area after gasless-laparoscopic adhesiolysis...

and take a look after applying SprayShield / SprayGel in gasless laparoscopy and compare it with the gas-laparoscopy picture above:

Comment: The narrow stream of SprayShield / SprayGel in gas-laparoscopy doesn't allow an adequate covering of large areas,
the SprayShield / SprayGel is sticking to some small areas and sliding away from the wounded area.
In my opinion it happens because the gas pressure narrows the stream of SprayShield / SprayGel and the peritoneum
is acidotic and hypoxemic and so the SprayShield / SprayGel can not connect to the peritoneal tissue !!!
Another conclusion: I strongly believe that the adequate covering of the wounded area with SprayShield / SprayGel
is best possible with gasless laparoscopy. I am also very confident that reducing the time of carbon dioxide laparoscopy,
if used, to less than 2 hours and than convert to gasless Lift-laparoscopy for adhesions surgery,
may be the solution, if one uses carbon dioxide laparoscopy.
