Description of Gastric Band Surgery:

What is Gastric Band Surgery?
Gastric band surgery (Lapband) is a weight loss procedure which reduces the capacity of the stomach so the patient can only eat small amounts of food. The gastric band is an inflatable balloon that creates an upper pouch in the stomach. The pouch fills quickly and enables the food to pass more slowly into the lower stomach and the digestive system.

About Gastric Band Surgery

Key facts to plan your treatment: how long it takes, your hospital stay, anaesthesia, risks and recovery.

Duration of surgery/treatment
Lapband surgery usually takes around one hour to co-mplete.
Days admitted
Lap-band surgery requires a one-night stay.
Anesthesia
General anesthesia
Recovery
Recovery after a gastric band surgery procedure takes around two weeks.
Risks
The mortality rate is quite low: only 1 in 2000. Complications occur in approx. 10% of patients. Potential complications include: - Gastritis (irritated stomach tissue). - Erosion: The band may slowly migrate through the stomach wall to the inside. - Stomach Slippage: An unusual occurrence in which the lower part of the stomach may prolapse through the band causing an enlarged upper pouch. - Malposition of the band: Which can cause a kink in the stomach. - Psychological intolerance - Internal bleeding - Infection
After care
- Start with liquids for 24 hours and move onto eating very small amounts of food at each meal, chewing food slowly. - You need to eat a healthy, sensible diet and get regular exercise in order for the gastric band surgery to work. - Take over-the-counter pain killers to relieve discomfort. - Do not drive, drink alcohol or operate machinery for 48 hours after gastric band surgery. - You will receive adjustments, or “fills”, to the amount of saline fluid in the gastric band five or six times in the first year.
