Patients undergoing laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy will be randomized into 2 groups. In one group, a staple line inversion with a running suture of Polypropylene will be performed. In the second group, the gastric section will be performed with a stapler with preloaded buttress material Postoperative nausea and vomits during the first 24 hours will be investigated.
Patients undergoing laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy as bariatric procedure will be randomized into 2 groups. In one group after the stapling and section of the stomach with stapling devices (EndoGIA, Covidien, USA), a staple line inversion with hemostatic and aims will be performed. Staple line inversion will be performed with a running suture of Polypropylene 2/0. In the second group, the gastric section will be performed with a stapler with preloaded buttress material (EndoGIA with reinforced reload, Covidien, USA). Postoperative nausea and vomits during the first 24 hours after surgery will be investigated.

RECRUITINGPostoperative nausea and vomits
Postoperative nausea and vomits will be measured using the postoperative nausea and vomiting intensity scale, described by Wengritzky et al (Br J Anaesth 2010;104:158-166). In this scale, the number of vomits are quantified, the frequence of nausea and if it is constant or varying are determined, and the duration of the feeling of nausea is established.
Time frame: 24 hours after surgery
