First seen Jan 16, 2026 · Last updated Apr 29, 2026 · Updated 13 times

Summary

This study looked at 80 severely obese adults having laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (weight-loss surgery). Researchers measured heart electrical signals and blood pressure as patients were moved into different positions during the operation. The goal was to understand how these position changes affect heart function and the risk of dangerous heart rhythms. The study did not test a new treatment but aimed to gather knowledge to make anesthesia safer for obese patients.
