WHAT IS GASTRIC BALLOON?

Gastric balloon surgery is performed for the treatment of obesity.
This surgery is an option for people struggling with obesity and who
have a weight loss goal. The gastric balloon is placed inside the
stomach to reduce the volume of the stomach.

During surgery, the gastric balloon is inserted into the stomach
through the mouth, usually using an endoscopic method. The balloon
takes up space inside the stomach, allowing less food to be taken in
and thus creating a feeling of fullness. Thus, the person eats less
and can help the weight loss process.

Gastric balloon surgery may not be suitable for all obesity
conditions. Before surgery, individuals need to meet with a healthcare
professional to assess their condition and receive information about
the risks and benefits of the surgery. As with any medical procedure,
gastric balloon surgery involves potential risks and should be guided
by a specialized doctor.

BEFORE GASTRIC BALLOON SURGERY

When applying for gastric balloon surgery, you will have a preliminary
consultation with a bariatric surgeon. At this stage, you will talk to
your doctor in detail about your weight history, current health
status, other medical conditions, and weight loss goals.

Before gastric balloon surgery, your doctor will order various tests
such as blood tests, urinalysis, and ECG. Before the surgery, your
doctor will advise you to make diet and lifestyle changes to prepare
for the weight loss process. This may include following a low-calorie
diet, exercising, developing healthy eating habits, and quitting
harmful habits such as smoking or drinking alcohol. It is important
that you have a full understanding of gastric balloon surgery. Your
doctor will give you detailed information about the risks of the
surgery, possible complications, how the procedure will be performed,
and post-operative expectations. At this stage, you will be informed
about the advantages and disadvantages of the surgery, and you will be
asked to decide to have the surgery. After your consent is obtained,
the operation process will be planned.

You must inform your doctor about the medications you are taking.
He/she may ask you to stop taking some medications. The pre-operative
process may vary depending on the patient. Your doctor will give you
clear instructions on what to do before surgery. It is important to
follow your doctor's recommendations exactly.

 

 

AFTER GASTRIC BALLOON SURGERY

Gastric balloon surgery usually does not require hospitalization as it
is an endoscopic procedure. However, you may need to be monitored by
your doctor for some time after surgery. During the first few days
after surgery, you may experience symptoms such as mild discomfort,
nausea or vomiting.

You can change your diet. Your doctor or a dietitian will prepare a
nutrition plan for you. You will usually consume liquid foods for the
first few days after the gastric balloon is inserted and will
gradually transition to solid foods. There may be restrictions such as
consumption of certain foods or portion control. The most important
thing at this point is that the balloon in your stomach helps you lose
weight.

After gastric balloon surgery, your doctor may advise you to increase
your level of physical activity. Exercise is important to support
weight loss, strengthen muscles and improve overall health.

It is important to keep in touch with your doctor after gastric
balloon surgery. Through this communication, your doctor will evaluate
your surgical results, monitor your weight loss and provide support if
you have any problems. You may also benefit from additional sources of
support, such as psychological support, dietitian support or support
groups.

Remember, the process after gastric balloon surgery may vary depending
on the patient. Your doctor will give you detailed information about
the postoperative process and will create a follow-up plan suitable
for you.
