The ORBERA Intragastric Balloon is a soft yet durable silicone balloon that is designed to assist adult patients with obesity, in losing and maintaining weight. It is intended for adult patients with a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 30 to 40 who have attempted more conservative weight reduction alternatives.

A Powerful Solution weight loss

Orbera Gastric Balloon for Weight Loss ShapeThe ORBERA Gastric Balloon procedure combines a clinically tested and proven medical device with the expertise of your bariatric surgeon and his team to help you in your battle against obesity. This comprehensive plan will begin with the placement of a soft balloon into your stomach for six months to suppress your hunger and encourage proper portion control. During these six months, you will be guided through a new diet and exercise program that will work with the balloon to maximize your weight loss.

Important ORBERA Intragastric Balloon System Safety Information

The ORBERA Intragastric Balloon System is a weight loss aid for adults with obesity, with a body mass index (BMI) ≥30 and ≤40 kg/m2, who have tried other weight loss programs, such as following supervised diet, exercise, and behavior modification programs, but who were unable to lose weight and keep it off.

To receive ORBERA you must be willing to also follow a 12-month program, beginning with the placement of ORBERA and continuing for 6 months after, that includes a healthy diet and exercise plan. If the diet and exercise program is not followed, you will not experience significant weight loss results; in fact, you may not experience any weight loss.

Losing weight and keeping it off is not easy, so you will be supervised throughout this program by a team of physicians, physiologists, and nutritionists. This team will help you make and maintain major changes in your eating and exercise habits.

ORBERA is placed for no more than six months. Any time that the balloon is in the stomach for longer than six months puts you at risk for complications, such as bowel obstruction, which can be fatal.

Some patients are ineligible to receive ORBERA. Your doctor will ask you about your medical history and will also perform a physical examination to determine your eligibility for the device. Additionally, at the time of placement, the doctor may identify internal factors, such as stomach irritation or ulcers, which may prevent you from receiving ORBERA™.

You must not receive ORBERA if you are pregnant, a woman planning to become pregnant within six months’ time, or breast-feeding.

Complications that may result from the use of ORBERA include the risks associated with any endoscopic procedure and those associated with the medications and methods used in this procedure, as well as your ability to tolerate a foreign object placed in your stomach. Possible complications include: partial or complete blockage of the bowel by the balloon, insufficient or no weight loss, adverse health consequences resulting from weight loss, stomach discomfort, continuing nausea and vomiting, abdominal or back pain, acid reflux, influence on digestion of food, blockage of food entering the stomach, bacterial growth in the fluid filling the balloon which can lead to infection, injury to the lining of the digestive tract, stomach or esophagus, and balloon deflation.

Gastric Balloon procedure by ORBERA is FDA approved. This method of losing 3.1 times more weight than diet and/or exercise alone is very safe and effective. There have been over 220,000 placements of ORBERA gastric balloon worldwide.
