About this study

Official title: Does the Sleeve Gastrectomy Improve the Kinematics of Obese Patients Perambulation ?

The aim of this study is to evaluate the consequences of sleeve gastrectomy on functional parameters of patients perambulation.

Read the detailed description

Laparoscopic Sleeve gastrectomy is the standard surgical procedure for the treatment of obese patients. Even the surgery is well described, there is no available study about its influence on the functional parameters of patients perambulation.

What participants receive

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

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
6-minute walk testOtherthe 6-minute walk test is performed for each patient prior to the surgery and 6 months after by a specialist.
Receives: Procedure: 6-minute walk test

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. 6-minute walk test

    the value of this test is obtained by the difference between the 6-minute walk test performed before the surgery and the 6-minute walk test performed 6 months after the surgery

    Measured: 6 months after the surgery

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. quality of life

    the quality of life is evaluated by the SF36 questionnaire which is performed before the surgery and 6 months after.

    Measured: 6 months after the surgery

  2. BAROS score

    the baros score is evaluated by the surgeon during the consultation 6 months after the surgery

    Measured: 6 months after the surgery

  3. quality of life with the Mooreheald-Ardelt questionnaire

    the Mooreheald-Ardelt questionnaire is completed by the patient during the consultation 6 months after the surgery

    Measured: 6 months after the surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing 6-minute walk test in people with Morbid Obesity and Surgical Management by Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy, run by Centre Hospitalier Universitaire, Amiens at 1 site in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Sep 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

6-minute walk test (time frame: 6 months after the surgery). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01774682, 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?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 19 Sep 2025; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 6 Nov 2026.
