An Intragastric Balloon is a non-surgical operation which is designed to help people to lose weight when they have a BMI below the normal threshold for gastric band surgery. The procedure involves inserting a non-fixed saline solution filled silicone balloon in to stomach. This has the effect of reducing the eating capacity and calorie intake of the person. Initially, whilst the patients is under a minimal dose of anaesthetic the gastric balloon is introduced to the stomach through the oesophagus in a deflated condition. Once the surgeon is happy that the balloon is correctly placed inside the stomach it is filled with the solution. This whole process takes around 20-30 minutes.

When can the Gastric Balloon be fitted?

They can be fitted to people with a BMI between 27 and 35 who need to lose between 10 to 15 kg. reasonably quickly for health reasons. The fitting of a gastric balloon is also suitable in some cases where the person does not want to undergo a full surgical procedure for medical or other personal reasons. Normally gastric band surgery is only offered to patients with a BMI of over 35, however, for some people who need to lose weight for medical or other social or possibly mobility problems they can now have this alternative fitted. The person must be suitably motivated to be able to follow a strict diet regime following surgery.

Gastric Sleeve Surgery in France

Gastric Sleeve Surgery in France I was born overweight! The twin sister who grew alongside me for nine months was born underweight! It was clear for all to see just who had been eating all the pies! Weight, with all its problems, has dogged me all my life and caused me no end of mental and physical pain. I had read every diet book going and tried to lose weight by every means suggested. Yes, I lost some weight but the progress was only ever short lived. Soon the pounds piled on again, plus more besides. Each failure meant that I sank deeper into depression and I resumed my unhealthy comfort eating regime. Never, ever, did I consider having surgery and I certainly would never have entertained the idea of paying to go abroad for treatment! Approaching Christmas 2012, I reached rock bottom. I was going to be spending the festive season alone but at least I would have lots of goodies to feast on! Having said that though, it did not really lift my mood. I could not get past the f

Guirguis brought suit against his former employer, movers specialty service s, inc. ("movers"), alleging violations of title vii of the civil rights act of 1964, 42 u. S. C. §§ 2000e to 2000e-17, and the pennsylvania human relations act ("phra"), 43 pa. Cons. Stat. §§ 951-63. Guirguis, who is of arab descent and a native of egypt, contends that movers terminated his employment on the basis of his national origin. The legal analysis governing guirguis's phra claim is identical to that under title vii, and the discussion that follows applies to both claims. See goosby v. Johnson johnson med. , inc.
