Comparing Postoperative Complications After Robotic Versus Laparoscopic Revision Bariatric Surgery with Conversion to RYGB

What this Trial Is About

Researchers are comparing two surgical methodsrobotic surgery and laparoscopyin patients undergoing bariatric revision surgery with conversion to Roux-en-Y gastric bypass RYGB. The main goal is to evaluate and compare the rates of complications after surgery between these two groups. Secondary goals include comparing surgery duration, emergency room and hospital stays, postoperative pain, adverse events, weight loss, and improvements in related health conditions over time. The study follows standard surgical procedures without altering usual care or follow-up protocols. Participants are divided into two groups based on the type of surgery they receive robotic or laparoscopic. The surgical care and data collection remain consistent with routine practices, ensuring that participation does not change the usual benefit or risk balance of the surgery. Participants will be monitored during their usual follow-up visits, with data collected on complications within 12 months after surgery. Researchers will assess postoperative pain two days after surgery, track the length of the surgical procedure, and evaluate weight loss and changes in comorbidities up to one year. The study does not require additional procedures beyond standard care and aims to provide detailed insights into the outcomes of these surgical approaches.
