Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The aim of this study is to assess the safety (in terms of post-operative complications) of the use of connected devices for the monitoring of patients operated on by longitudinal laparoscopic gastrectomy (LSG) and discharged 24 hours after surgery according to the protocol Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS).

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Connected devices, such as electronic scales and brachial cuffs used during the preoperative period, can help patients to self-control their weight and blood pressure and to better control certain risk factors for surgery. In addition, in order to reduce the number of deaths in the wards after surgery, connected devices have been designed to continuously monitor the vital parameters of patients. Subbe et al. recently showed that the use of wireless sensors to continuously monitor heart rate, respiratory rate, blood pressure and Oxygen Saturation by Pulse Oximetry (SpO2) reduced the number of cardiac arrests and mortality during hospitalization. Likewise, connected devices could potentially be used to monitor the patient directly at home and thus allow a faster discharge from the hospital without increasing the risks for the patient. At the current stage, there are no studies that have demonstrated the benefit of using the tools connected in postoperative follow-up in bariatric surgery.

Recently, thanks to the growth of experience and the application of the ERAS method, the postoperative stay at LSG has significantly decreased. Despite this, there are still very few centers that perform this operation in outpatient surgery or with a 24-hour hospital stay. This is probably due not only to a strict selection criteria, but also to the surgeon's concern to discharge the patient too early without medical supervision. In this context, the use of connected devices making it possible to monitor the patient directly at home and therefore theoretically continue a kind of medical surveillance could make it possible to increase the number of LSG performed in outpatient surgery. In addition, another advantage of this postoperative monitoring system is that it gives the patient a central role in the healing process after surgery. Thanks to devices and the Internet platform, the patient actively participates in his monitoring and remains in permanent contact with the surgical department. In this way, the feeling of fragility and loneliness that often feels the patient when he quickly returns home is reduced. Thus, compared to a small expense related to the purchase of devices, this would result in a significant reduction in hospital costs for the health system. The more important limitation of this procedure remains the degree of familiarity of the patient with the connected tools, and therefore will not necessarily be applicable to the entire population of obese patients without the risks of having a significant lack of follow-up during the first postoperative days.

Study Design

Understand how the trial is structured, including allocation methods, masking strategies, primary purpose, and other design elements.

Allocation Method

RANDOMIZED

Intervention Model

PARALLEL

This is a pilot, prospective, single-center, comparative, randomized, open-label study.
Primary Study Purpose

PREVENTION

Blinding Strategy

NONE

The experimental group which will use the connected tools will be compared with the control group according to the usual procedure.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Connected Tools

For the experimental group, the postoperative procedure requires the use of personal connected tools: a smartphone, a digital tablet or a computer with internet connection. A scale and a connected watch will also be loaned to patients so that they can take the necessary measures. Before returning home, patients must be trained to take correct measures and inform them on the dedicated platform.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Connected tools

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

Use of connected tools in postoperative bariatric follow-up vs no use of connected tools.

No Connected Tools

Patients randomized to the control group will be operated according to the same protocol as the experimental group. For them, there will be no home follow-up, so no special procedure to follow.

Group Type NO_INTERVENTION

No interventions assigned to this group
