New surgical twist aims to stop heartburn after weight loss surgery
NCT ID NCT06783751
Summary
This study is testing a modified version of a common weight loss surgery (sleeve gastrectomy) to see if it can better control severe acid reflux disease (GERD). Researchers will compare the new surgical technique to the standard one in 44 adults with obesity and pre-existing GERD. The main goal is to see if the modified surgery leads to less stomach acid exposure in the esophagus and improves patients' quality of life.
