NCT ID: NCT03798522 Completed - Morbid Obesity Clinical Trials

Erector Spinae Plane Block Versus Opioid Based General Anesthesia During Laparoscopic Bariatric Surgery

Start date: February 1, 2019
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

bilateral continuous erector spinae plane blockade may represent a valuable alternatives to thoracіc epidurals analgaesіa in treatment of thoracic neuropathic pain. There were 3 cases reported in 2017 suggested that the erector spinae plane block provides visceral abdominal analgesia in bariatric surgery and at end of the report they recommended further clinical investigation. The investigators hypothesіzed that performing the erector spinae plane (ESP) block at T7 would provide effective abdominal analgaesіa іn patients undergone laparoscopic bariatric surgery. The investigators aimed to compare the analgesic effect of erector spinae plane block and opioid based general anesthesia for laparoscopic bariatric surgeries.

Identification of Biomarkers of Response After Bariatric Surgery in Morbidly Obese Patients

PREDI-BAR
Start date: April 1, 2018
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The prevalence of obesity in Spain is about 21.6%. The discouraging results provided by dietary treatment, together with the lack of funding for pharmacological treatment, have led to the progressive use of bariatric surgery (CB). Besides weight loss, CB associates a beneficial effect on metabolic comorbidities. However, 25-30% of operated patients present a weight response considered inappropriate, they do not resolve their comorbidities and/or present a weight-regain shortly after surgery. Therefore, predictive strategies are necessary to allow a correct selection of obese patients who are candidates for CB. The main hypothesis of the study is that various factors such as psychopathological profile, body composition and metabolic alterations related to morbid obesity can influence the response to bariatric surgery.

Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy With or Without Hiatal Hernia Repair in Morbidly Obese Patients

Start date: January 9, 2019
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Background: Obesity and hiatal hernia are both risk factors of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), and the incidence of hiatal hernia is much higher in morbidly obese patients. Many believe that higher intra-abdominal pressure with higher esophagogastric junction (EGJ) pressure gradient in morbidly obese patients is the main mechanism accounting for the occurrence of GERD. Hiatal hernia, on the other hand, is associated with structure abnormality of EGJ. Sleeve gastrectomy (SG) has been becoming a standalone bariatric surgery for decades, and it has been proved to effectively induce long-term weight loss in morbidly obese patients. Some studies found morbidly obese patients benefited from resolution of GERD after SG, however, other studies had the opposite findings. Some morbidly obese patients had aggravating GERD or de novo GERD after SG. The mechanism is still unclear now. It might result from removal of fundus and sling muscular fibers of EGJ, increased intra-gastric pressure (IIGP), and hiatal hernia after surgery. High resolution impedance manometry (HRIM) is used to access esophageal and EGJ function objectively. Impedance reflux was more frequently observed in patients having gastroesophageal reflux (GER) symptoms after SG. In addition, previous studies also found decreased EGJ resting pressure, decreased length of lower esophageal sphincter (LES), and presence of hiatal hernia were associated with more GERD after SG. Objective: To evaluate the long-term EGJ function and GERD in morbidly obese patients with hiatal hernia receiving laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) with or without hiatal hernia repair (HHR).

Sedation of Morbidly Obese for Balloon Insertion

SedBaloon
Start date: December 1, 2018
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This prospective study will assess the value of different supplements to orpofol bases anesthesia in morbidly obes e patients scheduled for balloon insertion. Two common drugs will be added to propofol bases anesthesia;Ketamine or fentanyl. Effect on prpofol consumption, post-procedure recovery profile, and patient satisfaction will be the study objectives.

NCT ID: NCT03729505 Completed - Morbid Obesity Clinical Trials

Impact of Pyloric Injection of Magnesium Sulfate and Lidocaine Mixture on Outcome After Sleeve Gastrectomy

Start date: July 1, 2017
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Postoperative nausea and vomiting is a common adverse effect after sleeve gastrectomy, mostly due to increased intragastric pressure. The present trial aimed to assess the effect of pyloric injection of mixture of magnesium sulfate and lidocaine on postoperative gastric intraluminal pressure and incidence of nausea and vomiting.

NCT ID: NCT03721536 Completed - Morbid Obesity Clinical Trials

Effects of Low-Flow Anesthesia on Hemodynamic Parameters and Oxygenation in Morbidly Obese Patients

Oxygenation
Start date: October 18, 2018
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Low-flow anesthesia has been used for years with positive results, but its effects on hemodynamic parameters and oxygenation are not clearly known in high-risk morbidly obese patients who are prone to pulmonary dysfunction related to the obesity. Therefore, this prospective randomized study aimed to compare the effects of low-flow (0.75 L/min) and normal-flow (1.5 L/min) anesthesia on hemodynamic parameters and oxygenation in morbidly obese patients undergoing laparoscopic bariatric surgery.

NCT ID: NCT03692455 Completed - Morbid Obesity Clinical Trials

Clinico-functional Evaluation of GERD: Comparative Study of Vertical Sleeve Gastrectomy vs Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass

Start date: October 19, 2016
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The hypothesis of this study is that surgical techniques primarily designed for weight loss, ameliorates gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) in morbidly obese patients. Therefore the present study intends to evaluate such impact on patients submitted to two of the most common techniques available, the Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass and Vertical Sleeve Gastrectomy.

NCT ID: NCT03666481 Completed - Morbid Obesity Clinical Trials

Physical Activity in Bariatric Patients

Start date: November 16, 2011
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The aim of the current study was to explore the effect of a 6-months motivational physical activity intervention (MPAI) on different psychosocial variables (e.g. motivation, health-related quality of life, self-esteem, etc.) and on the physical activity levels of bariatric surgery patients. Comparing with a control group (CG), we tested the differences obtained on these variables between before surgery and just after the MPAI (7-months after surgery). Additionally, we explored the (possible) prolonged effects of the intervention by doing re-tests 13, 25 and 37- months after surgery.

NCT ID: NCT03657927 Completed - Morbid Obesity Clinical Trials

A Comparison of McGrath MAC Versus C-MAC Videolaryngoscopes in Morbidly Obese Patients

mcgrath&cmac
Start date: September 8, 2018
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Along with the technological advances in medicine, videolaryngoscope is the most commonly preferred technique for intubation of expected difficult airway management such as morbidly obese patients. In this prospective controlled clinical study, the purpose is to compare C-MAC videolaryngoscope and McGrath MAC videolaryngoscope in respect to duration of intubation, haemodynamic response, and complications related intubation of morbidly obese patients undergoing bariatric surgery.

Start date: September 2018
Phase: Phase 1
