About
Dr. Jayne Fullard is a leading clinical researcher in gynaecological surgery, with a primary focus on optimising surgical outcomes for women with benign disease. Her most notable contribution is the landmark LAVA (LAparoscopic Versus Abdominal hysterectomy) randomised controlled trial, which directly compared recovery and complication rates between laparoscopic and abdominal hysterectomy. This multicentre, expertise-based study, conducted across 10 NHS hospitals in the UK, provided rigorous evidence that laparoscopic hysterectomy offers significant advantages in postoperative recovery without compromising safety. The trial’s findings have informed clinical guidelines and practice, helping to shift surgical preference toward less invasive approaches. With over 3 citations already for this pivotal work, Dr. Fullard’s research is shaping the standard of care in benign gynaecological surgery. Her dedication to evidence-based practice and patient-centred outcomes makes her a key voice in advancing surgical techniques that improve recovery and quality of life for women.
