Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Evaluation of the percentage of total weight loss (%PPT) in 6 months after installation of the intragastric balloon
To analyze the percentage of total weight loss 6 months after installation of the intragastric balloon, the following formula will be used: Percentage of total weight loss = kilos lost/initial weight x 100
From the installation of the balloon to the end of treatment at 6 months
Secondary Outcomes (4)
Number of Adverse event occurrence assessed by clinical evaluation
From the installation of the balloon to the end of treatment at 6 months
Weight changes 6 months after installation of the balloon assessed by anthropometric balance in in-person consultations
From the installation of the balloon to the end of treatment at 6 months
BMI changes 6 months after the installation of the intragastric balloon assessed by BMI calculation in in-person clinical consultations
From the installation of the balloon to the end of treatment at 6 months
Abdominal circumference changes 6 months after the intragastric balloon installation assessed by measuring tape in in-person clinical consultations
From the installation of the balloon to the end of treatment at 6 months
