Trial summary

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Hand-sewn Single Anastomosis Duodeno-Ileal Sleeve (SADI-S)Procedure or surgery

    Arm 1 - Hand-sewn Duodeno-Ileal Anastomosis Following sleeve gastrectomy, a hand-sewn duodeno-ileal anastomosis is performed in two layers, with the inner layer constructed using absorbable barbed sutures and the outer reinforcing layer using absorbable monofilament sutures. Approximately 300 cm of the distal ileum from the ileocecal junction is used for the anastomosis. All procedures are performed by the same surgeon following a standardized operative protocol.

  • Stapled Single Anastomosis Duodena-ileal SleeveProcedure or surgery

    Arm 2 - Stapled Single Anastomosis Duodena-ileal Sleeve Following sleeve gastrectomy, a stapled duodeno-ileal anastomosis is created using endoscopic linear stapling devices, followed by closure of the enterotomy in a single layer using absorbable barbed sutures. Approximately 300 cm of the distal ileum from the ileocecal junction is used for the anastomosis. All procedures are performed by the same surgeon following a standardized operative protocol.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT07348146, which also lists 6 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?
