Los Angeles, CA -- (SBWire) -- 04/24/2015 --As companies throughout the country struggle to help people keep their weight under control, more and more diet products and weight loss procedures are being presented to the FDA for approval. The latest study, being performed by doctors at Allegheny Health Network hospitals and published by Pittsburgh CBS Local, involves a weight loss balloon that tricks the body to believe that the stomach is full. The procedure is defined as less risky than more invasive, bariatric surgery and involves overweight patients swallowing an uninflated weight loss balloon which will then be inflated with air by way of an attached tube. The report does not detail the exact location of the tube or its insertion technique. Throughout a period of a few weeks, the patient will swallow up to three balloons, which will remain in the stomach for about six months. They will then be deflated and removed through the mouth. http://pittsburgh.cbslocal.com/2015/04/20/new-weight-loss-balloon-procedure-being-tested-in-western-pa/
Potential risks of the new weight loss balloon surgery are reported to include injury to the esophagus, as well as the possibility of the inserted balloons deflating prematurely and blocking the intestines. Qualified patients must be between 20 and 60 years old, have a BMI of 30-40, and have had no previous bariatric or abdominal surgeries. They must also have the ability to follow up with their physician at 3-week intervals for one year following the surgery. While the potential risks of weight loss balloon surgery do, in fact, appear to be less than those posed by more invasive weight loss surgeries, the fact remains that any type of surgery does expose patients to potential risks and side effects.
