Bicarbonate changes during laparoscopic weight-loss surgery
This study looks at how bicarbonate levels change in the blood during weight-loss surgery performed with small incisions. It aims to help doctors understand and manage patients' health more safely during and after surgery.

This trial studies how sleeve gastrectomy affects metabolism, digestion, and weight loss in people with severe obesity. You are eligible if you recently had surgery and are not using certain supplements.
This trial tests whether giving a specific salt-water fluid (sodium bicarbonate in Ringer’s solution) during laparoscopic liver surgery can improve safety or outcomes. You may be eligible if you’re an adult planning this type of minimally invasive liver operation and can provide consent.
This study looks at how your body responds during laparoscopic (keyhole) surgery, when your abdomen is filled with carbon dioxide gas. It checks your blood, blood pressure, breathing, and other vital signs at different times during the operation.
This study looks at how your body’s metabolism changes after a specific weight-loss surgery (gastric bypass). It may help researchers better understand what to expect and how to tailor care, while requiring blood draws and stool samples before and after surgery.
This study looks at how the pressure in the breathing tube changes during weight loss surgery. It aims to help make the procedure safer and more comfortable.
This study follows patients undergoing one of two common weight-loss surgeries (sleeve gastrectomy or gastric bypass) to see how each affects binge eating, depression, and anxiety. Researchers want to understand which surgery may help improve both weight and mental health outcomes.
