BACKGROUND: Intra-gastric (TBT) can achieve pre-operative weight loss in obese patients, and may make surgery safer and easier. We report our experience in weight reduction and outcome in morbidly obese patients.
METHODS: Data were prospectively collected in 50 consecutive morbidly obese patients undergoing intra-gastric balloon therapy. All balloons were inserted and removed by one consultant operator and injected with 500-600 mls of methylene blue-stained saline. Patients were admitted after balloon insertion to control nausea and reflux symptoms. Analysis was performed on post-insertion data collated from the hospital obesity database and patient note review.
RESULTS: The majority of patients (70%) were female. Prior to IBT, mean patient weight was 149.9 +/- 36.8 kg (male 184.7 +/- 38.1 kg, female 135 +/- 26.5 kg). At six months follow-up, mean weight of patients reduced to 133.5 +/- 34.3kg (male 166.8 +/- 33.3 kg, female 119.3 +/- 25.9 kg). The overall percentage of excess weight loss was 22% (male 17%, female 25%, p=NS). Mean patient body mass index (BMI) at balloon insertion was 52.8 (+/-8.2) kg/m2 (male 56.8, female 51.0), mean patient BMI reduced to 47 (+/-8.1) (males 51.4, females 45.1) at six months. Average BMI loss was 5.8 (male 5.4, female 6.0).
CONCLUSION: IBT is an effective method of weight reduction in morbid obesity with an average excess weight loss of 22% in this series. The benefit of pre-operative weight loss in this patient group is likely to be significant, but has yet to be measured.
