Summary

The main objective of this study is to compare the efficacy of two weight losing strategies (obesity surgery with gastric banding, and standard of care) on physical performance in elderly obese persons submitted to a physical training. Our hypothesis is that a surgery-induced weight loss in the context of a physical training (which is recommended in people 60-75 yrs losing weight) improves physical performance as compared to standard of care (3-5% weight loss).

PROCEDURE

Gastric banding

The bariatric procedure is a gastric banding under general anesthesia with all the centres using the same surgical procedure (harmonized by group meetings). The laparoscopic surgical procedure has been described. The ERAS protocol will be applied in each centre. The inflation of the band will follow the procedures described by 0'Brien. The patients will attend a group education session before surgery, during which the eating behaviour with a band will be explained and practiced. Then after surgery, the routine procedure is applied.
