How often do you see an #RCT in Surgery? Congrats to Elizabeth Hechenbleikner, MD and Emory Surgery for showing that the use of suction calibration system does not reduce stapler load firings or OR time when compared to use of EGD for sleeve calibration Edward Lin link.springer.com/article/10.100…

This is some of the most compelling evidence that closing mesenteric defects in RYGB reduces SBO-related surgery up to 10 years postop. Very curious to see if this significantly changes surgeons' practices

This is comforting to know for days when I don't feel I'm optimized for efficiency. Helps get rid of some of the guilt!

#RCT comparing #RYGB and #LSG shows at 3-year postop, RYGB is better in weight-related QOL, reflux, weight loss, DM2 remission. No difference in abdominal pain, indigestion, diarrhea, dumping, & depression and binge eating. This info should be included in the preop consent
