Brief Summary:
The aim of this study is to evaluate the long-term (5-year follow-up) results of laparoscopic gastric sleeve (LGS) in terms of weight loss and obesity related comorbidities, as well as the risk factors associated with postoperative nutritional deficiencies.

Condition or disease
Bariatric Surgeries Metabolic Surgery

Detailed Description:
The consecutive patients who undergo LGS for the treatment of morbid obesity at Tartu University Hospital are followed prospectively in cohort study. The outpatient hospital follow-up visits are conducted at 3 months, 1 year and 5 years postoperatively.

Estimated Enrollment : 500 participants
Observational Model: Cohort
Time Perspective: Prospective
Official Title: Five-year Outcome of Laparoscopic Gastric Sleeve, Resolution of Comorbidities and Risk for Cumulative Nutritional Deficiencies.
Actual Study Start Date : October 8, 2008
Estimated Primary Completion Date : December 31, 2028
Estimated Study Completion Date : December 31, 2028



Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Five-year outcome of laparoscopic gastric sleeve [ Time Frame: 5-year follow-up ]
    5-year outcome in terms of weight loss, calculated in mean excess weight lost (%EWL).


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Five-year outcome of laparoscopic gastric sleeve [ Time Frame: 5-year follow-up ]
    5-year outcome of resolution of obesity-related comorbidities (type 2 diabetes mellitus, hypertension, obstructive sleep apnea, dyslipidemia). Prevalence of comorbidities are presented in percentages. McNemar´s test is employed to analyse significance of resolution of comorbidities.

  2. Five-year outcome of laparoscopic gastric sleeve [ Time Frame: 5-year follow-up ]
    5-year risk for cumulative nutritional deficiencies. According to blood analysis results and patient provided information about taking supplementations (eg vitamine B12 or iron), prevalence of nutritional deficiencies are calculated in percetanges. Backward stepwise logistic regression is used to evaluate the risk factors for nutrition.
