New study probes life after Less-Invasive weight loss procedure
NCT ID NCT06839677
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study aims to understand how people with obesity feel about their quality of life after undergoing endoscopic vertical gastroplasty (GVE), a less invasive alternative to traditional weight-loss surgery. Researchers will interview 20 Italian adults who had the procedure at least six months ago, asking about their well-being, body image, and overall satisfaction. The goal is to learn what positive and negative experiences patients have, so care can be improved.
