Filter by:The study will be conducted at a single site in the Canada, Quebec. Participants will be recruited from the bariatric surgery clinic and will be required to be either, waiting for sleeve gastrectomy surgery (n=12, restrictive bariatric surgery, Group 1) or Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (n=12, mixed bariatric surgery, Group 1), or had underwent Roux-en-Y gastric bypass 12 ± 3 months ago (n=12, Group 2). Participants in Group 1, edoxaban pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamics will be evaluated before and 48 ± 5 hours after bariatric surgery (sleeve gastrectomy and Roux-en-Y gastric bypass). Participants in Group 2, edoxaban pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamics will be evaluated only once, at 12 ± 3 months following their Roux-en-Y gastric bypass. All participants will be received single oral doses of 60 mg edoxaban at each pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamics evaluation.
The goal of this clinical trial is to figure out if 8 weeks of walking exercise before bariatric surgery improves risk factors for diabetes and other markers of health. This is important as it may help reduce complications after surgery, improve health markers and increase physical activity levels after surgery (which is an important marker of maintaining bariatric weight loss). The main question that this study is trying to answer is whether walking improves a risk factor for type 2 diabetes called insulin sensitivity (how well your body is able to use glucose). Adults planning to have bariatric surgery will be recruited from the Charlottesville VA area. Before they have their surgery, participants will be randomly assigned (like flipping a coin) to a group that participates in 8 weeks of walking on a treadmill (2-3 times a week) or a group that does their normal care before bariatric surgery. Researchers will compare the effects of walking before bariatric surgery on: - Insulin sensitivity (diabetes risk factor) - Health of blood vessels - Rate of complications after surgery - Weight - Body Fat - Fitness level
To compare patient pain perception and satisfaction as well as opioid-related side effects during inpatient and outpatient care when undergoing bariatric enhanced recovery after surgery protocols with and without methadone.
Study design : Prospective, longitudinal, observational (non-interventional), multicenter, comparative medico-economic study - RIPH2, with direct matching to SNDS data (National Health Data System) Main objective : To evaluate the effectiveness of a multidisciplinary, pre- and post-operative, care course for patients undergoing bariatric surgery
The main objective of this study is to investigate the optimal anesthesia for obese patients undergoing bariatric surgery in the strategies of positive pulmonary ventilation, tracheal intubation technique, hemodynamic monitoring, and postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) prophylaxis, as the followed: 1. To evaluate the effectiveness and adverse effect of intravenous dexamethasone for PONV prophylaxis 2. To determine the safe inspiratory pressure to prevent the occurrence of gastric insufflation during facemask ventilation using point-of-care ultrasonography of antrum 3. To compare the effectiveness and safety between video intubating stylet and video laryngoscope in the placement of tracheal tubes 4. To apply minimally invasive CO monitors in guiding goal-directed hemodynamic therapy and assess its impact on major complications and postoperative recovery
The diverse community of gut microbes commonly referred to as the 'gut microbiome', is increasingly suggested to play significant roles in health and disease, and to affect even distant non-GI organs by metabolite signaling. Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients feature a distinct gut microbiome signature4, while modulating the gut microbiome by either antibiotics or fecal microbial transplantation (FMT) is suggested to impact insulin sensitivity. Originally designed to treat obesity, bariatric surgeries often induce a robust and rapid weight-independent improvement in glucose homeostasis within days. Early diabetes remission following bariatric surgery is hypothesized to be mediated by rapid alterations in the gut microbiome and bile acids composition, however, the exact mechanism is yet to be uncovered. Elucidating this mechanism is important as it may form the basis of a new therapeutic modality in diabetes. The investigators intend to deeply characterize early post-bariatric changes in the gut microbiome of diabetic patients, as well as their gut mucosal transcriptome and metabolome, by using state-of-the-art experimental and computational pipelines. Additionally, The investigators will utilize a unique mouse model of bariatric surgery under germ-free conditions, developed at the Elinav lab, that allows us to dissect the role of microbes in post-operative metabolic improvements.
Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women in the US, and obese women have a 20% to 40% increase in the risk of developing breast cancer compared with normal-weight women. Bariatric surgery is now considered the first line option for weight loss management in morbidly obese patients with failure of medical treatment. There is strong evidence that in early stages of cancer the breast undergoes inflammatory and subsequently density changes that are observable in mammography. The aforementioned alterations have been suggested to be magnified by obesity, potentially due to its pro-inflammatory state. The investigators hypothesized that rapid weight loss following bariatric surgery and henceforth the reduction of inflammatory stress in the breast tissue could potentially have a positive effect in improving breast density and consequently, reducing the risk of breast cancer. In this order of ideas, with this study, the investigators aim to evaluate how breast density is modified after bariatric surgery, and how it impacts the risk of developing breast cancer using The Breast Cancer Surveillance Consortium (BCSC) risk score and calculator in our population.
This study represents a 3-arm, randomized controlled trial to investigate the impact of a validated 10-minute mindfulness intervention delivered via mobile technology on postoperative bariatric patients. The investigators hypothesize that participation in a brief, daily mindfulness intervention will improve outcomes in bariatric patients and use of mobile technology will facilitate patient compliance.
Patients who require bariatric surgery frequently bring a panoply of pre-existing comorbidities to the operating theatre. With body mass indices routinely in the 50s and 60s, patients who have bariatric surgery frequently have postoperative and post-discharge nausea and vomiting (PONV and PDNV)
The purpose of this registry is to evaluate if sleeve gastrectomy surgery will help with symptoms of delayed gastric emptying for patients suffering from diabetic gastroparesis.
