An observational study in Obesity, Morbid, sponsored by Imperial College London. Completed. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2021-12-06.
Sponsored by Imperial College London · Observational
Laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (LRYGB) in super obese patients (BMI≥50kg/m2) is a challenging operation. Weight reduction with intragastric balloon (IGB) prior to LRYGB may improve operative outcomes and improves weight loss. We assessed 155 patients, with a BMI≥50 kg/m2 who underwent either intra-gastric balloon (IGB) insertion followed by LRYGB (two-stage group), or LRYGB as the definitive bariatric procedure (single-stage group) in our institution. Two stage procedure was adopted for high-risk individuals.

Insertion of Gastric balloon prior to laparoscopic gastric bypass surgery
Percentage of total weight loss measured in kilograms following Bariatric Surgery
Percentage total weight loss is the proportion of weight lost in kilograms since the intervention of the weight before the intervention. This will be calculated by using the following formula. Initial weight is considered the weight on the day of surgery and Postop weight considered as the weight 24 months following Bariatric Surgery (intervention). Percent of total weight loss (%TWL)=((Initial Weight)-(Postop Weight)): Initial Weight x 100 Weight is expressed in kilograms.
Time frame: 24 months after Bariatric Surgery
Length of hospital stay in days following Bariatric Surgery
Hospital stay following laparoscopic gastric bypass surgery measured in days and compared between the groups.
Time frame: 90 days following gastric bypass surgery
