Proper Citation: Longitudinal Assessment of Bariatric Surgery (RRID:SCR_001536)
Description: Consortium comprised of six clinical centers and a data coordinating center to facilitate coordinated clinical, epidemiological, and behavioral research in the field of bariatric surgery, through the cooperative development of common clinical protocols and a bariatric surgery database that will collect information from participating clinical centers. LABS will help pool the necessary clinical expertise and administrative resources to facilitate the conduct of multiple clinical studies in a timely, efficient manner. Also, the use of standardized definitions, clinical protocols, and data-collection instruments will enhance the investigator's ability to provide meaningful evidence-based recommendations for patient evaluation, selection, and follow-up care. The consortium was funded in September 2003. The investigators have collaboratively developed a core database and clinical protocols, and subject enrollment began in early 2005. A repository of data and biological specimens for future research also will be collected by the centers participating in LABS. These will provide valuable resources for future study of obesity and its complications.
