Gastric Banding is the placement of a gastric band around the stomach. According to Dr Behnaz Yazdanfar, Gastric banding is normally done utilizing a laproscope. Gastric banding can help the patient with the realization of more longstanding weight loss by restricting the portion of food that that can be: Injested at any single meal, limiting the appettite, and slowing digestion.
The band segregates the stomach into a compact upper half above the gastric band and a cavity below the gastric band, Dr Yazdanfar. This smaller zone reduces the quantity of food that a patient can take in at any one time, and will cause a sense of fullness upon after consuming just a small portion of food.
Changing the size of the hole (stoma) in-between the two halfs of the stomach adjusts the volume of food that is passed from the upper to the lower section of the stomach by Dr Behnaz Yazdanfar.
