Mechanism of Weight Loss After Endoscopic and Laparoscopic Sleeve Procedures

Terminated
Conditions
Reflux
Weight Loss

Other: Metabolic and Hormonal profile
Registration Number
NCT04006002
Lead Sponsor
Northwell Health
Brief Summary

The purpose of this research study is to understand the mechanism of weight loss for weight loss procedures: that is Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy and Endoscopic sleeve Gastroplasty.

Detailed Description

We want to better understand the mechanisms for weight loss by understanding the anatomic and physiologic changes that occur with gastric restrictive procedures for weight loss and to determine the differences in metabolic profile between the two restrictive procedures. We also want to identify the rate of Gastro Esophageal Reflux Disease (GERD) in patients undergoing gastric restrictive procedures for weight loss.
