The Metabolic and Genetic Drivers of Body Composition Changes Following Weight Loss Surgery
Weight loss surgery is very good at reducing body weight but it can also cause the loss of both muscle and strength. Some patients undergoing weight loss surgery do not achieve their weight loss goals and regain the weight they lost. When this occurs, the loss of muscle and strength …
Symbiotic Use in Post-Bariatric Surgery Patients
The purpose of this double blind, randomized control trial would be to test the efficacy of a once daily, multi strain symbiotic on gut health changes in weight loss surgery patients by testing stool samples prior to administration and then three months post administration of the symbiotic to monitor any …
Combining Chinese Medicine and Nutrition to Enhance Weight Loss After Bariatric Surgery
This study aims to investigate the effects of Chinese herbal granule preparations on improving gastrointestinal symptoms in patients after bariatric surgery. It seeks to establish a novel treatment model that combines bariatric surgery with traditional Chinese medicine, providing clinical practice with additional evidence-based medical support.
Gut Microbiome and Sex as Risk Factors for Kidney Stones After Bariatric Surgery
This is a single-center study that aims to better understand how diet and sex affect the risk of kidney stones in people who have had gastric bypass surgery. Subjects will be asked to follow a special (clinic-provided) diet for six days and come to a research clinic for 3 study …
Compliance With Standard Care vs Ready to Eat Meals Prior to Bariatric Surgery
Currently, a ketosis-inducing programme, usually a liquid meal replacement, is the standard of care for pre-operative dietary management. However, compliance with liduiqd meal replacement is challenging primarily due to individual taste preferences, limited variety, having to take a liquid diet, lifestyle factors, and other obstacles. Therefore, there is a need …
Evaluation of the Implementation of a Diet Workshop on the 15th Postoperative Day Following Bariatric Surgery
The objective of the study was to improve protein intake after the implementation of a dietary workshop performed on the 15th postoperative day following bariatric surgery.
Effect of Individualized PEEP on Postoperative Pulmonary Complication in Bariatrics
Ventilation with low tidal volume and high PEEP (positive end expiratory pressure) has been shown to improve oxygenation in patients with ARDS (acute respiratory distress syndrome). In obese patients undergoing laparoscopic bariatric surgeries, the risk of postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) increases significantly with general anesthesia. Previous studies have shown that …
Glucagon-like Peptide 1, Glucose Metabolism and Gastric Bypass
The overall goal of this project is to understand the mechanisms by which gastric bypass surgery improves glucose metabolism. The central hypothesis guiding this project is that the reconfiguration of intestinal transit with the Roux-en-Y will increase the release of insulinotropic GI hormones, termed incretins that improve insulin secretion and …
Evaluation of the Stress Response in Bariatric Surgery With and Without the Use of Opioids
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare Opioid Free and Opioid Based Anaesthesia in patients undergoing sleeve gastrectomy. The main questions it aims to answer are: Will the total dose of intraoperative opioid be reduced? Will there be difference in pain scores between groups? Participants will be managed …
TAP Block Timing Study
This study investigates whether administering TAP blocks pre-incision provides superior postoperative pain control and reduces opioid use along with other medications compared to post-incision administration in patients undergoing elective abdominal surgeries.
