Final Safety Findings |
11 adverse events in 11 patients were reported during the postapproval study (10 device related, and 1 procedure related. Four of these 11 adverse events were “Persistent fistula.” Only one serious adverse event classified as “A-Tube dislodgement” was reported. There were not eating disorders reported during the post approval study.

Final Effect Findings |
The efficacy of the device while implanted was assessed by percent excess weight loss (%EWL) and total body loss (%TBL). Other efficacy study endpoints while the device was implanted included the change in obesity-related comorbidities (blood pressure, lipid levels, triglycerides, Hemoglobin A1c or HbA1c) and change in medications. %EWL: The results ranged from 44.7% on the third year of follow-up, 50.8% in the fourth year and 64.8% in the fifth or last year. %EWL Post-Explant: The results ranged from 24.0% at 2-months of follow-up, 27.1% at 4-months, 20.0% at 6-months, 9.8% at 1-year and 4.5% at 2 years post-explant. %TBL: The results ranged from 16.6% on the third year of follow-up, 18.7% in the fourth year and 24.3% in the fifth or last year. %TBL Post-explant: The results ranged from 8.9% at 2-months of follow-up, 9.8% at 4-months, 7.2% at 6- months, 3.5% at 1-year and 1.3% at 2 years post-explant. Co-morbidities: SBP: The average systolic blood pressure decreased from 124.4 (mmHg) on the third year of follow-up, 116.3 in the fourth year and 117.8 in the fifth or last year. DBP: The average diastolic blood pressure slightly decreased from 77.6 (mmHg) on the third year of follow-up, 77.0 in the fourth year and 73.7 in the fifth or last year. HbA1c: This laboratory measurement was only reported from one patient for years 3 and 4 of the follow-up, being 5.6 for the third year and 5.4 for the fourth year. Quality of Life (IWQOL): Seven patients completed the first-year and three completed the second-year post-explant follow-up milestones. When compiled, the standardized average quality of life scores at year 1 and 2 post-explant improved from baseline by about 19%. Eating Disorders (EDE): Seven patients completed the 1-year post-explant follow-up milestone to date, and three completed the 2-year post explant follow-up. Testing showed no signs of eating disorders.

Study Strengths & Weaknesses |
Strength: long follow-up. Weaknesses: small sample size, low follow-up rate, and there is no comparator group.
|
Recommendations for Labeling Changes |
Yes, the results of the post-approval study should be included.
