Gastric Balloon
Your healthy is on the Forefront of Our Priorities
Gastric Ballon at Emirates European Hospital
The Gastric Balloon is a revolutionary, non-surgical weight loss procedure designed to assist individuals in achieving their health goals. This temporary device is placed in the stomach through a simple, minimally invasive endoscopic procedure, where it occupies space and promotes a feeling of fullness sooner during meals. Typically, the balloon remains in place for six months, during which patients can experience significant weight loss. Throughout this period, patients receive comprehensive coaching on diet and lifestyle changes, supporting sustainable health improvements. The Gastric Balloon is an ideal option for those looking to lose weight without surgery, offering a safe, effective, and reversible solution to kickstart a healthier lifestyle.
Single Balloon Systems:
- The Orbera Balloon
- These consist of a single silicone balloon that is filled with saline solution and placed in the stomach. It’s typically used for six months before removal.
Dual Balloon Systems
- The ReShape Duo™
- This type employs two connected silicone balloons, which occupy more space in the stomach than a single balloon. This design is intended to enhance the stability and effectiveness of the balloon for weight loss.
Adjustable Balloon Systems
- The Spatz3 Adjustable Balloon System
- These balloons can be adjusted in volume after placement, allowing for increased or decreased restriction based on patient needs and tolerance. This adjustability can extend the use of the balloon up to 12 months.
Swallowable Balloon Systems
- The Obalon Balloon System
- These involve balloons that are swallowed in a capsule form, then inflated once they reach the stomach. This non-endoscopic placement is less invasive. Typically, up to three balloons can be introduced over a period to gradually increase fullness.
After laser eye surgery, such as LASIK or PRK, many patients may not require glasses for most activities. However, the need for glasses after the surgery depends on various factors including the original prescription, the specific procedure, how well the eye heals, and how the vision changes over time. Some people might still need glasses for certain activities, like reading or driving at night, particularly as they age.type specimen book.

Pain: The cornea has a high density of nerve fibers; hence, any injury or disease can cause significant pain.
Redness: Inflammation or infection can lead to redness around the cornea and eye.
Blurred Vision: Changes in the clarity or shape of the cornea can lead to vision disturbances.
Light Sensitivity (Photophobia): Many corneal issues increase sensitivity to light.
Excessive Tearing: The eye may produce more tears in response to irritation or injury.
Reduced Vision: Vision loss or impairment can occur, especially if the cornea becomes scarred or excessively opaque.type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic

Microwave ovens do not cause cancer. They cook food by producing microwaves, which are a form of non-ionizing radiation. This type of radiation does not have enough energy to damage the DNA in cells, which is how cancers are known to form. The main health hazard associated with microwave ovens is burns from hot containers, overheated foods, or steam.
To ensure your microwave is safe:
Use it as directed by the manufacturer's guidelines.
Regularly check that the door seals properly and that it is not damaged in any way. Damage may allow microwave radiation to leak, although this is mostly a burn risk rather than a cancer risk.
Only use microwave-safe containers to avoid chemicals leaching into your food.
Taking these precautions will help you use your microwave safely.type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic
