Filter by:GERD is a prevalent condition worldwide, estimated to be around 20-30 % in North America. Obesity is rapidly increasing with an estimated prevalence of 66% in the adult population in the United States. Presently, bariatric interventions are the only sustainable method to address morbid obesity and its resulting comorbidities. One of the most common restrictive surgeries includes laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG). Although very effective for treating obesity, some of these surgeries might cause deleterious effects regarding GERD, due to anatomical modifications. Refractory GERD is defined by lack of symptom control on maximum dose of PPI therapy. Cardia Band Ligation Anti-reflux (CLEAR) procedure utilizes multiple band ligations at the cardia in a 270-degree fashion, resulting in tissue necrosis and scar formation, narrowing the GE junction and enhancing the flap valve system. The investigators hypothesized that CLEAR can be a safe and efficient intervention to improve post bariatric GERD.
The investigators of the study want to investigate the complex interactions between glucose metabolism, food intake/weight loss, and different appetite regulating hormones after ESG in comparison with conventional laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG).
Patients with BMI >35 and chronic diseases or BMI >40 will be scheduled to receive Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy (LSG). Two groups are planned according to receive Enhance recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocol or not. All participants will receive standard LSG. Participants of ERAS will receive anesthesia and post-surgical nutrition protocol which are determined for ERAS. All patients will be checked for status of pain with VAS score, nausea and vomiting with PONV score at postoperative 2nd hour, 12th hour. In ERAS group liquid oral intake will be started between postoperative 2nd and 4th hours. In no ERAS group liquid oral intake will be started in the morning of postoperative first day. The patients who provides discharge criterias will be discahrged. these criterias are; To provide adequate pain relief with paracetamol and nonsteroidal painkillers, No wound problem, No complications after surgery, Pulse rate <90 beats / min, temperature ≤ 37 · 5 ° C, respiratory rate, <20 breaths / minute, To be able to mobilize easily, To be able to drink 1 liter of water after surgery. Emergency admissions of the participants within a month after surgery will be recorded.
The present study hypothesized that significant weight loss is associated with a reduction in the inflammatory markers, leading to diminished cardiovascular risks in patients undergoing laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LGS). We found a decrease in MHR at postoperative 6 months from baseline in patients undergoing LSG. The decrease in MHR was more remarkable with increasing percentage of EWL, but no relationship between the %EWL and MHR.
Sleeve gastrectomy (SG) involves the creation of small gastric reservoir based on lesser curvature of the stomach, which is fashioned by a longitudinal gastrectomy that preserves the antrum and pylorus together with its vagal innervation. Recently SG is viewed as a multi-purpose bariatric procedure that restricts the stomach size to induce satiety and resects fundal ghrelin-producing cells to decrease appetite. However, the risk of staple line leak and bleeding remains one of its challenging complications. Despite the fact that there are a large number of studies assessing various methods of making the staple line secure, there is to date, no consensus on which technique is best for reducing the risk of stapler line bleeding and leak. Hence, this study aims to compare staple line suturing reinforcement methods in sleeve gastrectomy using plication and over-sewing techniques.
To assess endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty in comparison to laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy before and 3 months after the procedure in terms of multiple nutrition-related factors, quality of life, weight and other related parameters.
This is a experimental study, which subjects are obese PCOS patients requiring LSG surgery. Aim to investigate the effects of LSG surgery in PCOS patients whether increases the live birth rate of the offspring.
The aim of this study is to assess 5 year long-term outcomes of laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy emphasizing weight loss and modification of comorbidities such as type 2 diabetes mellitus, hypertension and gastroesophageal reflux disease from a developing country, Turkey. Prospectively-collected patient data will retrospectively reviewed. To measure the efficacy of the procedure, we will calculate the excess weight loss percentage (EWL %). Effective weight loss after LSG will accepted as more than 50%. The changes in the status of the type 2 diabetes mellitus, hypertension, gastroesophageal reflux disease will be observed.
The study team will be assessing if the unilateral subcostal transversus abdominis plane (TAP) block can decrease pain and improve outcomes following laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy surgeries.
This is a prospective cohort study, which subjects were obese patients requiring LSG surgery. LSG with different gastric resection starting points (2-4cm/4-6 cm from pylorus) as intervention method. The main observation is the incidence and extent of upper gastrointestinal symptoms (such as nausea, vomiting, retching, reflux, difficulty swallowing, etc.).In addition, secondary observations include the excess weight loss (%EWL) and postoperative complications. Aim to investigate the effects of LSG surgery in different starting points of gastric resection on postoperative upper gastrointestinal symptoms.
