Complications after sleeve gastrectomy study
Part of Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study looks at complications after a type of weight-loss surgery called sleeve gastrectomy (removing part of the stomach). If you are considering this surgery and meet the weight/health guidelines, you may be able to join to help doctors learn more about risks and recovery.

This trial studies a specific type of metabolic (weight-related) surgery for people whose sleeve gastrectomy did not lead to enough weight loss or has caused significant weight regain. It may help improve long-term weight and related health problems.
This study looks at factors that predict weight loss success after a non-surgical stomach reduction procedure (endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty). It may help if you have obesity-related health problems and have not succeeded with diet or lifestyle changes.
This study checks whether a surgical “fix” (omentumpexy) can reduce acid reflux after sleeve gastrectomy. It’s mainly for adults having sleeve surgery who have a higher-risk body weight and related health problems.
This study tests a non-surgical procedure called an endoscopic sleeve (Endosleeve) to help with weight loss in people with obesity. It's done through a scope placed in your mouth and stomach—no cuts needed—and aims to shrink your stomach to help you feel full sooner and eat less.
This study compares two weight-loss surgeries—gastric bypass and sleeve gastrectomy—to see which one causes less acid reflux afterward. It may help you by tailoring which surgery is better for people with reflux symptoms before surgery.
This trial tests a modified version of sleeve gastrectomy that aims to reduce the risk of acid reflux (GERD) after surgery. It is for people aged 18–65 with a BMI between 35 and 55 who already have some degree of GERD and are planning to have weight loss surgery.
