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.

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.

NCT ID: NCT03590951 Completed - Pregnancy Related Clinical Trials

Anesthetic and Obstetric Outcomes in Morbidly Obese Pregnancy and Cesarean Delivery

Start date: May 3, 2017
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Given that morbid obesity has been strongly associated with obstetric, neonatal and anesthetic complications, and that scarce reports have evaluated anesthetic and obstetric outcomes after cesarean delivery in morbidly obese patients; This study retrospectively analyzed anesthetic, obstetric and neonatal outcomes in morbidly obese pregnant patients who underwent cesarean delivery at Augusta University Medical Center, during a 2-year period (2015-2016).

NCT ID: NCT03553849 Completed - Morbid Obesity Clinical Trials

Utilization of Very Low Calorie Diet in Obese General Surgery Patients

Start date: September 24, 2018
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The investigators are studying the use of a two-week very low calorie diet (VLCD) in obese general surgery patients in a randomized single-blinded trial. The investigators hypothesize that the VLCD will positively impact the perceived surgical difficulty, operative time, hospital length of stay and 30-day complications. Additionally, the investigators anticipate reduced perioperative blood glucose levels and a reduced need for perioperative insulin administration.

NCT ID: NCT03467048 Completed - Morbid Obesity Clinical Trials

McGrath Videolaryngoscopy and Direct Laryngoscopy in Morbidly Obese Patients

Start date: July 24, 2018
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Our goal is to compare conventional direct laryngoscopy using a Macintosh blade with the McGrath videolaryngoscope for endotracheal intubation in very morbidly obese patients undergoing non-cardiac surgery. Specifically, we propose to test the primary hypotheses that videolaryngoscopy improves visualization of the vocal cords, defined with modified Cormack and Lehane classification, compared to direct laryngoscopy.

NCT ID: NCT03438734 Completed - Morbid Obesity Clinical Trials

Comparison of Low Versus Normal Flow Anesthesia on Cerebral Oxygenation and Bispectral Index in Morbidly Obese Patients

CerOxygen
Start date: November 8, 2017
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Obesity is a chronic disease that affects quality and duration of life negatively. It's not clearly known the effects of low flow anesthesia on cerebral oxygenation with high-risk morbidly obese patients. In this study, it was aimed to compare the effects of general anesthesia with low flow (0,75 L/min) and normal flow (1,5 L/min) on cerebral oxygenation and depth of anesthesia in morbidly obese patients in bariatric surgery.
