The SCAR-3 study:
Surgical and Clinical Adhesions Research (SCAR) 1986 The largest study ever conducted showing the long-term, population-based frequency and effects of post-operative adhesions. Until now, studies on adhesions have been limited in size and
scope, in part because complications resulting from adhesions often do
not manifest for several years after surgery, and in part because investigators
lack a non-invasive means of quantifying adhesion formation. The study
published in the Lancet examined the frequency of complications from adhesions
in more than 50,000 patients over a 10-year period.

Trail Travel around the world
with Beverly Doucette as she fights for the cause of
"Adhesion Related Disorder" escorts patients for medical intervention, sets precidents by being the first ARD patient invited to attend International Medical Congress's, Presents in Washington D.C., where she secures a meeting with The US Surgeon General, Vice Admiral Dr. Richard Carmona and Dr. David Wiseman of the IAS, "Medical Symposium on Adhesions" at Wayne State University, Detroit Michigan 2001. IAS representatives Beverly J. Doucette (Wisconsin) & Augusta Sisler ( New York) attended this symposium. This was precedent setting as no lay people had ever been invited to a medical symposium as part of the audience. I'll share these pictures with you in hopes that they present to you my passion to impact this world as deeply with as many "benefits and changes for the better" as there are " dangers and impass's" for all those afflicted with ARD! These trips were at my own expense, and at times family members were able to join me, as did many of my ARD family. |
