This research is being done to test whether a complementary intervention, Reiki therapy, can provide added benefits to the standard patient care. Reiki is method for stress reduction that uses hand positions over and/or on the body to help people relax. We are studying the effect of a 15-minute Reiki application compared to an intervention of nursing presence without Reiki. We hope to find if Reiki can assist in relieving stress, and improving patient outcomes. In the future we would like to offer complementary interventions as an adjunct to our standard care for patients.
NCT02315105
The purpose of this study is to find out more about the safety and effectiveness of the Laparoscopic Greater Curvature Plication (LGCP) procedure in patients with obesity and related problems such as diabetes, hypertension, high cholesterol, mild obstructive sleep apnea, and joint problems. LGCP is a less invasive weight loss surgery procedure than some of the other weight loss surgeries and it is possible that there are fewer risks with this procedure than with the other weight loss surgeries. LGCP is considered an experimental procedure and this study is being done to look at the long-term outcomes.
