Sleeve Gastrectomy
Brief summary
This research study is being conducted to collect information to improve the outcomes of patients who have renal failure and are scheduled to have a sleeve gastrectomy.
Detailed description
We will collect information on changes in physical performance, activity, blood pressure and glucose metabolism, body composition, and the quality of life prior to and three months after sleeve gastrectomy.
Interventions
Subjects walk as far as possible for 6 minutes at a self-selected pace, and the total distance walked will be recorded
Subjects will wear an Actigraph on their wrist like a watch for up to 10 days at home to monitor activity.
Subjects will collect glucose values in the fluid under their skin for up to 10 days at home.
Subjects will monitor their blood pressure at home for 10 consecutive days 3 times a day
Measure of body fat percentage, skeletal muscle mass, body water, and visceral fat.
Subjects will consume 6 ml/kg body weight of Boost, up to maximum of 360 ml, within 5 min
Subject will complete Quality of Life Questionnaire

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Change in 6-minute walk distance (6MWD) | Baseline, 12 weeks | Total distance walked at a self-selected pace reported in meters |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Change in total step count | Baseline, 12 weeks | Total number of steps taken as measured by ActiGraph |
| Change in quality of life | Baseline, 12 weeks | Assessed by the PROMIS 29 questionnaire to assess seven health domains (physical function, anxiety, depression, fatigue, sleep disturbance, ability to participate in social roles and activities, and pain interference) on an individual scoring scale of 1-5 where 1= not all all and 5= very much. |
| Change in Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB) score | Baseline, 12 weeks | Measure of physical performance through balance, strength, and gait measurements. Total score ranges for 0 = worst performance and 12 = best performance. |
| change in insulin, C peptide and glucose metrics | Baseline, 12 weeks | Assessed by mixed meal testing. |
| Change in blood pressure | Baseline, 12 weeks | Assessed by ambulatory blood pressure monitoring and home blood pressure monitoring |
| Change in glucose metrics | Baseline, 12 weeks | Assessed by continuous glucose metabolism. |
