Gastric Sizing System for Weight Loss Surgery Planning
This trial tests a new tool that helps doctors measure and plan gastric (stomach) surgery for weight loss. The device is used during surgery to ensure proper sizing of the stomach reduction procedure.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

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.
This study tests a new, less invasive way to convert a sleeve gastrectomy into a different type of weight-loss surgery (SASI) in people who have ongoing gastroesophageal reflux or haven't lost enough weight. The goal is to see if this endoscopic procedure can improve reflux and help with weight loss without the need for a traditional surgery.
This trial compares a “mini” gastric bypass procedure to help with weight loss in adults who qualify for bariatric (weight-loss) surgery. It’s testing whether the approach works well and is safe for people who meet the study requirements.
This trial studies what happens after a weight-loss procedure called endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty (ESG) and whether a “recalibration” approach can improve results. You may be considered if you have long-term obesity that did not improve with lifestyle/medical treatment.
This trial tests a tube-like device placed in the upper gut to help people with obesity and related health problems lose weight. It may be an option if you haven't lost a lot of weight recently or taken certain medications.
This trial tests a new, customized version of a weight-loss surgery called SADI-S for people who had a sleeve gastrectomy before but need more help losing weight or keeping it off. The goal is to see how safe and effective this tailored surgery is.
