Filter by:Impact of resected gastric volume on postoperative weight loss after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy for morbid obesity. Observational study with a mathematical method to approximate the calculation of the resected gastric volume after a sleeve gastrectomy and see the outcome on weight loss.
This is an observational study of morbidly obese patients recovering from general anesthesia after weight-loss surgery. The investigators aim to assess ventilatory function and how this is influenced by the diagnosis of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), baseline ventilatory status, as well as pharyngeal collapsibility of patients who are recovering from anesthesia and treated for pain with opioids. The investigators hypothesize that patients with OSA, chronic (baseline) hypoventilation and increased pharyngeal collapsibility, will be more vulnerable to opioid-induced ventilatory depression.
The researchers will conduct a study for avoiding the metabolic syndrome in morbid obese patients. Thus, the aim of the present will be determine the effects of a resistance training programme (RT) in preventing or attenuating metabolic syndrome (MetS) in patients with morbid obesity. A second aim will be report the prevalence of non-responders in terms of improvements in MetS markers and other co-variables considered.
In this study to planned to research the efficacy of low-flow anesthesia on patients undergoing sleeve gastrectomy due to morbid obesity on respiratory functions after surgery by examining FEV1 and FVC values and FEV1/FVC ratio.
The primary objective is to measure the impact of this treatment for patients with obesity of class I, or class II without co-morbidity, assessed by excess weight loss (EWL)>25%. The secondary objectives are to measure total body weight loss >5%, BMI reduction, tolerance, complications related to this technique in this indication. This study is a prospective, pilot, bi-center safety and efficacy study. 30 patients will be enrolled between APHM, Marseille et CHU L'Archet Nice
The main aim of this study was to examine whether introducing a work intervention into a traditional lifestyle rehabilitation program for persons with BMI above 30, would affect the participants' ability to work and their lifestyle change. The investigators wanted to find out how the participants experienced their health, workability and work capacity, quality of life, diet and self-efficacy before and during the intervention
Morbidly obese patients undergoing either Roux en Y gastric bypass or sleeve gastrectomy were examined preoperatively, 3, 6, and 12 months after surgery. On each occasion, anthropometric data were collected, resting metabolic rate was measured, and the patients underwent a panel of cardiovascular examinations (heart rate variability, baroreflex sensitivity, heart ultrasound). Following that, they consumed a test meal and completed visual analog scales for the subjective assessment of hunger and fullness every 30 minutes for 3 hours. At the same time points, blood samples were collected for the consequent measurement of glucose, insulin, lipids, and gastrointestinal hormones.
Surgical management of Morbid Obesity is increasingly frequent. A low-calorie diet is recommended with the main goal of reducing intrahepatic fat infiltration, fat tissue and making easier the surgery. Information the use pharmacological interventions during the preoperative period in this population are rare.
150 morbidly obese patients divided into to equal groups, group A underwent single anastomosis sleeve jejunal bypass and group B underwent mini gastric bypass, group C underwent sleeve gastrectomy. All patients were followed for at least one year. all cases were evaluated as regard BMI, complications, nutritional status and obesity-related comorbidities.
With the development of technology, the safety of anesthesia devices and the progression of monitoring techniques affect the anesthetic management. There are some disadvantages such as high cost of inhalation anesthetics and long postoperative recovery time. The effects of total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA), which has been used for many years and whose positive aspects are well known, on antioxidant system in high risk patients such as morbid obese should be investigated. The aim of this study was to compare the effects of desflurane anesthesia and total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) on the antioxidant system in morbidly obese patients undergoing bariatric surgery.
