About this study

Official title: Longitudinal Assessment of Bariatric Surgery (LABS-1)

The goal of the LABS-1 study is to assess the short-term safety of bariatric surgery.

Read the detailed description

The primary objectives of this study are to assess the safety of bariatric surgery by estimating the prevalence of short term adverse outcomes in a multicenter cohort of patients undergoing bariatric surgical procedures and to determine the associations between short term adverse outcomes after bariatric surgery and both clinical/demographic patient characteristics and features of operative/perioperative care

Funds are not available to pay for the surgery for patients, only to address research questions.
