Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: To compare body weight of patients with type 2 DM scheduled for weight loss surgery (RYGB) after 8 weeks of preoperative treatment with liraglutide to patients with type 2 DM treated with placebo;Secondary Objective: To asses liver size (right and left liver lobe), operative time, GLP-1 levels prior and post operation and the incidence and quantification of postoperative nausea and vomiting. Also the length of hospital stay and intraoperative complication rate will be analyzed. Furthermore to assess change of body weight after a 8 week preoperative treatment at 1, 2 and 3 days after surgery;Primary end point(s): - Weight prior to surgery ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Visit 2

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): - Change of body weight after a 8 week preoperative treatment phase at V2 and at 1, 2 and 3 days after surgery compared to preoperative weight at V1 - Change in Liver size (right-, and left liver lobe) as assessed by ultrasound at V1 and after 8 weeks of Liraglutide application prior to surgery at V2 - Operative time defined as time between section and suture - Quantification of intraoperative complications - Pre and post operative GLP – 1 levels - Quantification of postoperative vomiting - Extend of postoperative nausea as assessed by patient’s perception - Postoperative nausea and vomiting as assessed by questionnaires 1, 2, 3 days post surgery and at discharge - Duration of hospitalization ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: see above
