Filter by:The aim of the study is to set up and validate a reliable and reproducible automated method using preoperative radiological imaging to measure the TSBL in patients undergoing laparoscopic bariatric/metabolic surgery.
In this prospective study the investigators aim to identify preoperative predictors of improvement of metabolic health and weight loss after bariatric surgery focusing on inflammation, insulin sensitivity (in a subgroup of patients), glucoregulatory determinants, psychological traits, feeding behavior characteristics and cardiorespiratory fitness
Environmental endocrine disruptors (EDCs) represent a major problem for human health.Some PEEs can accumulate in the fatty tissue of the human body thanks to their lipophilic nature, and are known as persistent organic pollutants (POPs). To assess the benefit of cholestyramine treatment on POPs blood levels in obese patients of childbearing age undergoing bariatric surgery, in order to reduce their preoperative POPs load more rapidly. Indeed, the investigators hypothesize that cholestyramine is capable, outside of acute exposure accidents, of promoting the elimination and release of POPs in the human population. Given this hypothesis, a treatment administered prior to bariatric surgery could reduce pre-operative plasma levels of POPs and thus, in fine, minimize the concentrations reached post-operatively, which are dependent on the release induced by lipolysis (massive and rapid weight loss) and pre-operative plasma concentrations.
One of the most effective treatment methods of obesity is surgery. Bariatric surgery is classified as a clean-contaminated wound. The expected benefit from surgery is weight loss. However, surgical site infection is among the complications. Although many methods are applied to reduce these rates, it is not very possible to reduce them to zero. It is predicted that the incidence of infection will decrease with surgical care packages created from the combination of evidence-based interventions applied. This study was a randomized controlled trial designed to determine the effect of the Surgical Site Infection (SSI) prevention package on SSI and patient comfort in patients undergoing bariatric surgery. The questions to be answered by the research are; - What is the effect of the care package applied to patients undergoing bariatric surgery on surgical site infection? - What is the effect of the care package applied to patients undergoing bariatric surgery on comfort? .Patients aged 18 and over who have had bariatric surgery (sleeve gastrectomy) will be taken from a private hospital in Kayseri. All surgeries will be performed by the same surgeon. The care package (identification of risk factors, antibiotic prophylaxis, normothermia, normoglycemia and patient education) prepared for the experimental group will be applied. On the 30th day, the patient is called by phone and the surgical site infection findings are questioned.
Approximately 120 subjects will be randomized into 1 of the following 2 treatment groups in a 1:1 ratio: Group 1: ZYNRELEF® up to 200 mg/ 6mg ( 7ml vial) via instillation at all incision sites in addition to 30 ml of 0.5% Ropivacaine + 10mg dexamethasone. Postoperatively, intermittent IV acetaminophen will be administered as per need till discharge. Group 2: 30 ml of 0.5% Ropivacaine and 10mg dexamethasone into all surgical sites and intermittent IV acetaminophen as per need till discharge. Primary Objective: To compare the efficacy and duration of analgesia achieved following the instillation of ZYNRELEF® all incision sites in addition to Ropivacaine with dexamethasone + postoperative IV acetaminophen, to the standard treatment of Ropivacaine with dexamethasone + postoperative IV acetaminophen in subjects undergoing laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy. Secondary Objectives: 1. To evaluate additional efficacy parameters, including opioid load, in this study population. 2. To determine the impact of ZYNRELEF® on the cost of pain management. 3. To assess the time taken to resume exercise after discharge. 4. To assess the adverse events reported following the use of ZYNRELEF®.
Obesity and Type 2 diabetes mellitus (DMT2) are two of the most common chronic diseases of the Western society. Obesity is one critical factor in DMT2 development, with weight loss having profound beneficial effects on DMT2 and improving the metabolic pathophysiology leading to hyperglycemia. Observational studies reported that surgical intervention of morbid obesity achieved significant improvement of resolution of DMT2, both in short and long-term. Bariatric surgery has been considered the best option for treatment of diabetic obese patients, with the laparoscopic Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass being the gold standard of the surgical treatment. Bariatric arterial embolization (BAE) technique has proved to be safe effective for weight loss in obese patients, but its metabolic effects have not been studied yet. The hypothesis of the study is that BAE is effective for the resolution of DMT2 inpatients with BMI between 30-43 Kg/m2. The aim is to assess DMT2 remission after BAE and bariatric surgery, to analyze potential conditioning factors, and to compare remission criteria between bariatric surgery and BAE.
Regional anaesthetic techniques, or nerve blocks, are commonly used to provide postoperative pain relief for patients undergoing surgery. At present in University Hospital Galway, it is standard practice for patients undergoing bariatric sleeve gastrectomy surgery to receive a regional anaesthetic technique to improve their postoperative pain. There are a number of different regional anaesthetic options available for this surgery, but as yet, published evidence regarding which specific approach confers most benefit for patients is lacking. This study aims to compare two regional anaesthetic techniques - erector spinae plane blockade versus serratus anterior plane blockade plus subcostal transversus abdominus plane blockade - and assess if one approach provides a superior quality of recovery postoperatively for sleeve gastrectomy patients over the other.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare Opioid Free and Opioid Based Anaesthesia in patients undergoing sleeve gastrectomy. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Will the total dose of intraoperative opioid be reduced? - Will there be difference in pain scores between groups? Participants will be managed with the Nociceptive Level Index algorithm to guide intraoperative analgesia. The Opioid Free Anaesthesia Group will be administered the Multimix infusion (Magnesium sulfate, dexmedetomidine, ketamine). The Opioid Based Anaesthesia Group will receive fentanyl as a bolus dose and remifentanil infusion. Rescue fentanyl bolused will be injected as appropriate according to nociceptive level (NOL) values.
The goal of this observational study is to explore the longterm effects of two bariatric surgical procedures by inviting patients from three public hospitals who had Roux-en-Y gastric bypass or Sleeve gastrectomy to a follow-up after10-15 years The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - The duration of the surgical method on weight reduction and remission of comorbidities - Theprevalence of complications and new morbidities after the surgical procedures Participants will be asked be asked to - fill inn questionnaires, - have a clinical examinition - have an interview with nurse and doctor - have blood samples taken - undergo other investigations
General anesthesia and mechanical ventilation decrease pulmonar volume; attenuate small airway closure, atelectasis, and increase the rate of hypoxia and postoperative pulmonary complications. Lung volume in obese patients decreases inversely with the increase in body mass index. Obesity is associated with increased atelectasis, hypoxia and postoperative pulmonary complication rates during anesthesia . Alveolar recruitment maneuver is a technique where high positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) is applied for for short periods, follwed by a continuous PEEP appşication throughout surgery. This has become a standard practice during anesthesia in recent years. Oxygen reserve index (ORi) is an index measured with a non-invasive finger-tip sensor and shows the oxygen content of the venous blood. It is effective at high oxygen levels and may indicate the presence of hyperoxia. Our aim is to examine the effect of alveolar recruitment maneuver on oxygenation parameters under anesthesia and the correlation with ORi in morbidly obese patients.
