Evaluation of a 6-month Intragastric Balloon

Forty-six overweight patients over 18 years of age with a BMI of 27 kg/m2 or greater who are considered suitable for intragastric balloon placement will be included. The primary outcome will be the assessment of the percentage of total weight loss (%WL) at 6 months. Patients will be screened in an outpatient setting at the participating research center. All participants who meet the eligibility criteria will be invited to participate in the study, which includes a screening visit, standard intragastric balloon placement procedure, and follow-up visits.
