Robotic vs. laparoscopic for SADI-S weight-loss surgery
Part of Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study compares two ways to do a weight-loss surgery called SADI-S: using a robot or using standard laparoscopic tools. Both methods use small incisions, and the goal is to see if the robotic approach works just as well.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial compares two types of bariatric (weight-loss) surgery to see which helps people with severe obesity lose weight and stay healthy. You might be eligible if you’re between 20 and 60 and are already being referred for bariatric surgery after prior unsuccessful weight-loss attempts.
This study compares two different techniques for a procedure that helps with weight loss by reducing stomach size using an endoscope. It aims to see which technique is more effective for people with obesity.
This study compares two types of weight-loss surgery: one done with the help of a robot and the other done by hand (laparoscopic). Both are types of sleeve gastrectomy, where the stomach is reduced in size. If you qualify for sleeve gastrectomy, this trial may help doctors learn which method works better.
