Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Safety, characterised by the incidence of all adverse device effects (ADEs), possibly related to or related to the procedure and/or device, experienced by study participants. Adverse device effects are collected at a minimum weekly (day 7, 14, 21, and 28 +/- 2 days); however, they are documented at any time the patient notifies the study staff of a concern. There is no formal endpoint and the sample size does not support a formal endpoint to be evaluated. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Information on preliminary efficacy, obtained by measurements of total weight loss and excess weight loss during the 30 days of device use as compared to baseline | — |
