Abstract

The history of intragastric balloons (IGBs) began in 1985 with the Garren-Edwards Bubble. It was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for temporary use as a weight loss device, but its manufacture was discontinued in 1988, and approval was withdrawn in 1992 because of significant complications and limited and recidivistic weight loss. A number of IGBs have appeared since that time, mostly originating in Europe or South America, but none has acquired FDA approval until recently; the ReShape Duo Integrated Dual Balloon System (ReShape Medical Inc., San Clemente, California) received FDA approval in August 2015. The conclusions of an important 1987 international conference on IGBs and the characteristics, effectiveness, and problems of most other IGBs are described in this text. The common purpose of these devices as preliminary interventions before gastric bariatric surgery and their favorable effects on this purpose are emphasized and may have played a key role in the FDA's change of outlook of the IGB.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
