BioEnterics Intragastric Balloon (BIB) versus Spatz Adjustable Balloon System (ABS): Our experience in the elderly

Abstract: The BioEnterics Intragastric Balloon (BIB) and the Spatz Adjustable Balloon System (ABS) are in fact recommended for weight reduction as a bridge to bariatric surgery. We retrospected studied patients with body mass index (BMI) and age ranges of 37-46 and 70-80 years, respectively, who had undergone BIB from January 2010 to July 2012 and prospected studied patients who had undergone Spatz balloon from July 2012 to August 2014. The aim of this study is to compare BIB and Spatz in terms of weight loss, complicat… Show more

“…Using the Orbera ® device, the early removal rate was 16.7% (median 8 weeks) associated with use of selective serotonin or serotonin‐norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors, and with average weight loss of 8.5% (3 months), 11.8% (6 months), and 13.3% (9 months) and significant reduction of lipid and glycemic status markers at 6 months . Other balloon products (e.g., BioEnterics ® and End‐ball ® [nonadjustable] , Spatz Balloon ® [adjustable], and Elipse Balloon ® [a procedureless device that is swallowed]) are not FDA approved at this time but function similarly as other space‐occupying devices within the stomach. Medications that reduce nausea and production of gastric acid are frequently used concomitantly .…”

“…Russo et al compared the Spatz Adjustable Balloon with the BioEnterics Intragastric Balloon (BIB), also known as Orbera TM [ 29 ]. In their case-control study, they compared the weight loss outcome, weight maintenance after removal, and short- and medium-term complications and found that there were no differences in these parameters observed between the two balloons [ 29 ]. However, long-term safety issues of severe complications and high mortality have been reported [ 30 ].…”

“…From January 2010 to December 2012, 20 patients underwent implantation of the intragastric balloon in our Department of Digestive Endoscopy. Patients were selected according to NIH criteria [ 13 ]. Inclusion criteria were: BMI > 27-30, previous failure of dietary measures and the presence of at least one of the following co-morbidities: hypertension, diabetes, respiratory disorders, osteoarthropathy, dyslipidaemia.…”
