NCT ID: NCT05427916 Terminated - Diabetes Clinical Trials

Closed Incision Negative Pressure Wound Therapy vs. Foam as Post Operative Dressing

Start date: July 12, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The primary objective is to assess the frequency of a wound healing complication, in a closed incisional wound in a "high risk" surgical incision when treated with Negative Pressure Wound Therapy versus a highly absorbent antimicrobial post - operative absorbent dressing.

NCT ID: NCT04050969 Terminated - Atrial Fibrillation Clinical Trials

Bariatric Atrial Restoration of Sinus Rhythm

BAROS
Start date: October 1, 2020
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The objective of this study is to determine whether bariatric surgery followed by Atrial Fibrillation (AF) catheter ablation is superior to AF catheter ablation alone in the management of atrial fibrillation in patients with morbid obesity.

NCT ID: NCT03925610 Terminated - Morbid Obesity Clinical Trials

Recovery of Ventilation After General Anesthesia in Morbidly Obese Patients

Start date: April 10, 2019
Phase:
Study type: Observational

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.

NCT ID: NCT03429205 Terminated - Morbid Obesity Clinical Trials

The Efficacy of External Warming During Laparoscopic Bariatric Surgery

Start date: March 15, 2018
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

External warming is routinely used in general surgery to offset the deleterious effects of hypothermia. It entails deployment of a disposable, external heating blanket attached to a regulated hot-air pump. The need for external warming in the morbidly obese population undergoing short laparoscopic procedures is unclear. If proven to be unnecessary, time and momentary costs could be lowered. The study will compare core-temperature dynamics during laparoscopic bariatric procedures anticipated to last <2h. The study group will be left without a warming blanket while the control group will receive routine external warming. Post-anesthesia care unit (PACU) arrival temperature will also be recorded.

NCT ID: NCT03222414 Terminated - Blood Pressure Clinical Trials

Non-invasive Versus Invasive Blood Pressure Measurement in the Morbidly Obese Parturient With Severe Preeclampsia

Start date: May 1, 2015
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The study will compare agreement of invasive blood pressure measurements with non-invasive blood pressure measurements measured with a conical blood pressure and large standard upper arm rectangular cuff in morbidly obese severely hypertensive (systolic blood pressure > 160 mmHg) parturients.

NCT ID: NCT02637713 Terminated - Morbid Obesity Clinical Trials

Management of Reflux After Sleeve Using Stretta

MaRSS
Start date: March 2016
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is a frequently seen entity after sleeve gastrectomy. Management of GERD after sleeve is difficult given limited treatment modalities. Stretta is an endoscopic FDA approved device that improves symptoms of GERD, there is minimal information about its use on patients after sleeve. This registry will attempt to get information regarding the treatment of reflux using Stretta after sleeve gastrectomy.

NCT ID: NCT02323009 Terminated - Morbid Obesity Clinical Trials

Esophageal Balloon Guided Weaning of the Morbidly Obese Patient

Start date: January 2011
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This is a study to evaluate whether PEEP adjusted by use of an esophageal balloon to overcome negative transpulmonary pressure; or adjusted by use of "CStat" to achieve the best effective static compliance will have any effect on outcomes with respect to ventilator weaning in tracheotomized morbidly obese patients (BMI >=40) with at least one failed prior weaning attempt.

NCT ID: NCT01759550 Terminated - Morbid Obesity Clinical Trials

Prospective Case-Series of Ligasure Advance Pistol Grip and LigaSure Blunt Tip

Start date: September 2011
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The study is primarily to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the LigaSure Advance™ Pistol Grip and LigaSure™ Blunt Tip using the Force Triad™ Energy Platform during Roux-en-Y and gastric reduction procedures (sleeve gastrectomy or placation), respectively. Also, Economic value of using LigaSure in gastric surgeries will be appraised. In this prospective case series, 60 patients previously scheduled to undergo a Roux-en-Y or gastric reduction procedure (sleeve gastrectomy or placation) will have hemostasis controlled with LigaSure Advance ™ Pistol Grip or LigaSure™ Blunt Tip, respectively. All subjects undergoing Roux-en-Y or gastric reduction procedures (sleeve gastrectomy or placation) procedure at Durham Regional Hospital will be recruited. Data Analysis will be performed using the data collected in the software program titled MetaBar at Duke University Medical Center. Categorical variables will be summarized as proportions for each category; continuous measures will be summarized by mean and standard deviation or median and range as appropriated for the data distribution. Procedure-related risks are those typically associated with gastric procedures and general anesthesia including intra-operative bleeding, infection, and injury to surrounding organs and structures. Device related risks include those normally associated with the use of electrosurgery including intra-operative bleeding, unintended tissue burns, electrical shock, and electrical stimulation of muscles and nerves.

NCT ID: NCT01249950 Terminated - Morbid Obesity Clinical Trials

Study on the Appropriateness of Bariatric Surgery in Adolescents

Start date: October 2009
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

single-center study carried out in order to evaluate in prospective among patients seen or treated in the pediatric endocrinology unit and multidisciplinary management of obesity, the potential number of patients eligible for surgery.

NCT ID: NCT01212835 Terminated - Morbid Obesity Clinical Trials

Effect of RING on Gastroesophageal Reflux (GERD) After RYGBP

RING
Start date: October 2010
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Silastic rings have been used around the gastric pouch in order to promote better weight loss after Roux-and-Y gastric bypass surgery ( RYGBP). However the investigators have shown that some patients developed gastroesophageal reflux disease after RYGBP in a previous study. The investigators hypothesized that the use of a silastic ring may play a role in promoting GERD after this operation.
