What participants receive

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

  • Indocyanine green solutionDrug

    Adequate perfusion was defined as "the direct and clear visualization of the fluorescence along the gastric tube, relative to the excised specimen, after an estimated time of 150-180 s after i.v. administration injection

  • Gastric bypassDevice

    Roux and Y Gastric bypass

What is being measured

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