Stitch to prevent reflux after gastric bypass
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This trial tests adding an antireflux stitch to a type of gastric bypass surgery to see if it helps reduce acid reflux. It may help patients who are already scheduled for this surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial tests two methods—oversewing stitches versus surgical clips—to lower the chance of bleeding after a type of gastric bypass surgery called one anastomosis gastric bypass. If you qualify, you may help find the safest technique.
This study looks at whether a treatment plan called “Sleeve-pex” can reduce heartburn and reflux after sleeve gastrectomy. If you’re planning this surgery and can complete symptom questionnaires, you may be able to join and help compare outcomes between groups.
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 trial studies an endoscopic procedure to treat gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) in people who had gastric sleeve surgery. It may help if reflux symptoms are not controlled on once-daily acid medicine (PPI) or if you cannot tolerate it and want an alternative.
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 study looks at how a one-anastomosis gastric bypass changes how your stomach and esophagus work, especially relating to acid reflux. You may be offered the planned surgery if you fit the weight and heartburn/reflux-related conditions, and the team will measure changes before and after.
