Feasibility of Day Case Management by Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy for Obesity: a Pilot Study

The purpose of this study is to investigate whether the patients with morbid obesity requiring a surgical approach by Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy could be operated according to a "day-case surgery" modality.

The sequence of this study is the following:

1. patients consultation for bariatric management: during this consultation, the investigator is looking for exclusion criteria and prescribes laboratory tests.
2. medical records of each patient are reviewed by an obesity-related staff: Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy is proposed.
3. during a second consultation, the surgeon informed the patient about the proposition of the staff and his potential inclusion in this study
4. after obtained his consent, the surgical procedure is planned and Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy is done in the Day-Case Surgery Unit.
5. the following day the surgery, a nurse calls the patient to identify a potential postoperative outcome (nausea, vomiting, uncontrolled pain...)
6. the 8th postoperative day, a consultation is done with laboratory tests and dietary follow-up.
7. follow-up consultations are scheduled at 3, 6 and 12 months to evaluate the efficiency of the surgery procedure.
