In The Operating Room

During Your Procedure

W hen the room is prepared for you, you will be taken, on a gurney, into the operating room. You might find that it is a little chilly, but we will bundle you up with blankets so you will be quite warm. The nurse will place a safety belt across your body, and pads and pillows may be placed underneath your legs. Your arms will be extended out from your sides and softly padded.

Note for Orbera Balloon Patients: Those patients undergoing the Orbera balloon procedure generally do not require a breathing tube or a general anesthetic. This non-surgical procedure requires only an IV sedative, not a full anesthetic. These patients are expected to leave the facility to go home a couple of hours after their procedure.
