The objective of this post-market study was to evaluate long-term safety and efficacy aspiration therapy (AT) in a clinical setting five European clinics.The AspireAssist® System (Aspire Bariatrics, Inc. King Prussia, PA) is an endoscopic weight loss utilizing customized percutaneous gastrostomy tube external device aspirate approximately 30% ingested calories after meal, conjunction with lifestyle counseling. A total 201 participants, body mass index (BMI) 35.0-70.0 kg/m2, were enrolled...
<b>Background and study aims:</b> Obesity is a major public health problem with few effective treatment options. A novel device for treating obesity, the AspireAssist aspiration therapy system, was evaluated. <b>Patients methods:</b> After 4 weeks taking very-low-calorie diet, 25 obese men women (BMI 39.8 ± 0.9 kg/m<sup>2</sup>) had gastrostomy tube placed during gastroscopy. low-profile valve installed 14 days later of gastric contents performed approximately 20 minutes after meals three...
This study evaluated the efficacy and safety of novel AspireAssist® Aspiration Therapy System for treatment obesity, its effect on patient's quality life.A prospective observational with 25 obese subjects, mean age 48 years (range 33-65), was performed. A custom gastrostomy tube (A-tube, Aspire Bariatrics) percutaneously inserted during a gastroscopy performed under conscious sedation. Drainage irrigation stomach were 3 times daily, 20 min after each meal, 1-2 years. Efficient aspiration...
Aim: The aim of this study was to the type and frequency complications change in weight after a laparoscopic gastrostomy procedure 31 children with congenital heart disease, comparing patient groups univentricular biventricular circulation, completed uncompleted cardiac surgery. Methods: method used that retrospective all disease who underwent at our center from 1995 2004. Main Outcome Measures: Postoperative body changes during follow-up were main outcome measures study. Results: Minor...
Very low calorie diet (VLCD) is routinely used in programs for treatment of obesity and before bariatric surgery order to reduce risk postoperative complications. Aspartame, an artificial sweetener, commonly VLCD well approved as a food additive without any adverse effects. The development new fructose containing formula aspartame raises questions effects on glucose lipid control. As part ongoing study novel procedure, twenty-five obese subjects with mean body mass index (BMI) 39.8 kg/m2 age...
Abstract Aim Restoration of bowel continuity following a Hartmann's procedure is major surgical undertaking associated with significant morbidity. The aim this study was to review the authors' experience reversal. Method This retrospective consecutive patients from institutional databases who were selected undergo open or laparoscopic reversal at two tertiary academic referral centres and public safety net hospital (2010–2019). main outcome measure rate successful stoma Secondary outcomes...
Surgeons have experienced an increase in the number of patients referred for management endoscopically unresectable colon polyps as a result increased adoption colonoscopy-based cancer screening. The majority these historically received recommendation to undergo oncologic resection, exposing them significant operative and long-term morbidity. Combined endoscopic laparoscopic surgery (CELS) techniques since been developed leverage unique advantages two separate approaches allow colon-sparing...
For stage II/III rectal cancer patients, comprehensive multidisciplinary care (MDC) affects outcomes. Randomized trials have shown the effectiveness of adjuvant and neoadjuvant therapy in treatment these patients. However, collaboration within MDC is undetermined. It possible that regional variation survival outcomes may be tied to facility. We retrospectively reviewed a prospectively collected database patients with who received at any location underwent oncologic colorectal resection...
Multicentre studies have previously reported on national outcomes of surgery for primary hyperparathyroidism, but not investigated whether management and outcome are uniform among countries. This study there differences European countries in operative hyperparathyroidism.
A major problem with using automated classification systems is that if they are not engineered correctly and fairness considerations, could be detrimental to certain populations. Furthermore, while engineers have developed cutting-edge technologies for image classification, there still a gap in the application of these models human heritage collections, where data sets usually consist low-quality pictures people diverse ethnicity, gender, age. In this work, we evaluate three bias mitigation...
BACKGROUND: Benign colon polyps are increasingly being detected because of improved colonoscopic screening and early detection masses on the adenoma-to-carcinoma pathway. Full-thickness laparoendoscopic excision is a colon-preserving technique for endoscopically unresectable consisting guided nonanatomic wedge colectomy. OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to evaluate safety success full-thickness compared segmental colectomy complex not amenable endoscopic resection. DESIGN: retrospective...
A pilot study conducted at our institution showed that a significant amount of prescribed postoperative opioids is left unused with the potential for diversion and misuse.This aimed to evaluate impact provider- patient-targeted educational interventions on opioid prescription use following anorectal procedures.Patients were enrolled July 2019 through March 2020 after implementing (study) compared group (control) August 2018 May 2019. telephone survey was 1 week postoperatively.This 600-bed,...
