A gastric balloon or gastric balloon is an inflatable medical device that is temporarily placed in the stomach. It is a non-surgical method used in the treatment of obesity.

WHAT IS A STOMACH BALLOON?

Gastric balloon is a silicone material that has a certain volume and is placed in the stomach by endoscopy. Since the balloon occupies a certain amount of space in the stomach, less food is consumed and helps to experience a feeling of fullness quickly. The swallowable gastric balloon, also known as the ellipse gastric balloon, is used for obesity treatments.

A swallowable balloon is placed in the stomach without a surgical procedure or anesthesia. It is possible to lose weight quickly with a properly applied diet program.

The type of anesthesia is determined by taking the appropriate lying position. If general anesthesia is not determined for the patient, sedation is given to make him sleep.

The silicone balloon, approximately 10 cm long, is placed in the stomach. In order for the balloon placed in the stomach to take a round shape, inflating with liquid or air is applied, when it reaches a sufficient level, the transfer is stopped. After it is stopped, the mouth of the balloon is closed. At the closing stage, the balloon in the stomach is checked again and the procedure is completed.

Protein-based diet should be provided by limiting carbohydrate consumption. Avoid sweets, unhealthy snacks, and foods containing refined sugar. Alcohol should be avoided as much as possible because it contains high calories and also increases reflux complaints.
