title: Cost and economics of adhesions.
abstract: The burden and cost of adhesions is considerable. Products are available which might reduce these problems. The costing of these products will have a significant effect on their usage. A low-cost product with a 25% efficacy could potentially generate a cost saving of 55 million Pounds over a 10-year period in the UK.
