What is Gastric Sleeve
Gastric Balloon
A gastric balloon, also known as an intragastric balloon, is a non-surgical weight loss device designed to help individuals lose weight by reducing their food intake. The procedure involves placing a soft, silicone balloon in the stomach and inflating it with saline. This creates a feeling of fullness, which helps reduce appetite and food consumption. Here's a detailed overview:
Procedure
Insertion: The balloon is inserted into the stomach through the mouth using an endoscope. This is done under mild sedation.
Inflation: Once the balloon is in the stomach, it is filled with saline, usually between 400 to 700 milliliters. Some balloons are also filled with air.
Duration: The balloon is typically left in place for about six months, during which time patients should follow a diet and exercise program supervised by healthcare professionals.
Removal: After the six-month period, the balloon is deflated and removed endoscopically in a similar procedure to its insertion.
The gastric balloon is generally recommended for individuals who:
Have a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 30-40.
Have not been able to lose weight through diet and exercise alone.
Are committed to a long-term weight loss plan involving diet, exercise, and regular medical follow-up.
Effectiveness
The effectiveness of the gastric balloon can vary based on individual factors, including adherence to lifestyle changes. On average, patients can expect to lose a significant amount of excess weight, but sustained weight loss requires ongoing effort after the balloon is removed.
