The B-Clamp™ (BariClip™) is an implantable device, inserted laparoscopically, made from titanium with a medical-graded soft silicone cover. It is “clipped” and fixed vertically around the stomach’s larger part (the large curve), drastically restricting the food capacity of the stomach.

The device divides the stomach in two parts: a “restrictive” part which contains the nutrients, and the “excluded” expandable part of stomach which produces the gastric fluids.
The excluding part (old stomach) usually expands massively and produces gastric digestive fluids with the natural pepsins and hormonal precursors. The restricted part (new stomach) is now much smaller, cannot expand as the “old stomach”, and will give a much faster feeling of fullness and satiation.

The procedure leads to similar weight loss results as seen with the Gastric Sleeve Gastrectomy, without having the inconveniences due to the removing a large part of the stomach (Gastrectomy). The B-Clamp™ can be removed if medically required, leaving a clean and normal stomach.

The B-Clamp™ is specially designed for the younger patient struggling with as little as 20 pounds, or more, of excess weight.
The B-Clamp™ fills a gap that could not be justified with more invasive Bariatric procedures.

Without a doubt, the B-Clamp™ is another important achievement of modern medicine in the fight against one of the most threatening diseases for modern life: Obesity.

“The results with the B-Clamp have shown that it will become the best option for Bariatric surgery, in specific cases.”
