Obesity surgery in a day: no hospital stay needed?

NCT ID NCT01513005

First seen Sep 30, 2025 · Last updated May 12, 2026 · Updated 27 times

Summary

This study tested whether a common weight-loss surgery, laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy, could be safely performed as a day-case procedure—meaning patients go home the same day. Thirty adults with obesity were enrolled, and researchers tracked how many needed unexpected overnight stays or readmissions. The goal was to see if this approach is feasible and safe for carefully selected patients.
