Oral Acetaminophen for Post-Op Pain Management in Bariatric Surgery Patients
Adult patients with morbid obesity who have had Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) or laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) surgery have impaired drug metabolism. There is a paucity of information available on how these patients metabolize acetaminophen post operatively and if drug preparation has any effect on achieving adequate pain control. The …
Cerebrospinal Fluid Biomarkers in Bariatric Surgery
The goal of this project is to understand why bariatric surgery is such an effective treatment for obesity with a focus on brain mechanisms. Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) neuropeptide, hormone and protein levels will be measured as a surrogate for changes in brain activity in participants before and after bariatric surgery …
Bariatric Surgery vs. Semaglutide vs. Tirzepatide
The recent introduction of the new generation of anti-obesity medications (AOMs) will change the future of obesity treatment. These highly effective medications, such as high-dose semaglutide and tirzepatide, are hormone analogues that augment the incretin function and exert multiple physiological effects by activating glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and/or glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide …
Ketogenic Diet Prior to Bariatric Surgery
Standard dietary regiments for bariatric are advised prior to surgery. The most used diet is a very low calorie diet (VLCD). These diets potentially have multiple pittfalls. Very low-calorie ketogenic diets (VLCKD) have been proposed as a new regimen for achieving weight- and liver volume loss in patients undergoing bariatric …
LOW IMPACT LAPAROSCOPY IN BARIATRIC SURGERY
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if low pressure pneumoperitoneum and small incisions (low impact laparoscopy, LIL) works to reduce pain and improve pulmonary function in patients underwent to bariatric surgery. It will also learn about the safety and patients' satisfaction of the procedure. The main questions …
Exercise to Fight Obesity
This clinical trial aims to determinate whether a structured exercise program, supported by telerehabilitation, can help individuals with severe obesity who are going to undergo bariatric surgery. The main objective of this study is whether a structured exercise program, including both supervised and home-based workouts, leads to greater body fat …
Role of Tranexamic Acid in Reducing Hemorrhagic Events in Bariatric Surgery
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if tranexamic acid (TXA) helps reduce bleeding during bariatric surgery, such as laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) and mini gastric bypass (MGB). It will also look at how safe TXA is for people undergoing these procedures. The main questions it aims to …
Simethicone as Part of ERAS in Bariatric Surgery Patients
By conducting this study, we hope to assess if simethicone (also known as Gas Relief or GasX) has an effect on improving gas pain and bloating specifically in patients undergoing foregut procedures to include bariatric procedures (sleeve gastrectomy, Roux-en-Y gastric bypass), hiatal hernia, and gastric surgery. The purpose of this …
Prospective Pilot Study for the Evaluation of Endoscopic Sleeve Gastroplasty With Endomina® for the Treatment of Obesity in Liver Transplant Candidates
The goal of this pilot prospective interventional study is to evaluate the efficacy of endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty (ESG) in allowing obese subjects with the need of liver transplantation to reduce their BMI in order to enter the waiting list (BMI (≥35 kg/m2). The main question[s] it aims to answer are: …
Bariatric Surgery and Modulation of Perceived Satiety
Bariatric surgery is the ideal therapeutic strategy for patients with severe obesity when lifestyle interventions have failed. Unfortunately, weight recovery after surgery affects one third of patients and is due to several factors, such as recovery of incorrect eating behaviour, reduction of physical activity or hormonal factors. Dilation of gastro-jejunal …
