1415-P: Risk–Benefit Data from the Worldwide EndoBarrier (EB) Registry

Uncertainty exists re risk:benefit of proximal intestinal exclusion with EB, a novel endoscopic duodenal jejunal liner device for obesity, both with and without diabetes. In view of this, during 2017, an independent, secure, on line registry was established under the auspices of the Association of British Clinical Diabetologists, for the collection of safety and efficacy data worldwide. As of December 2021, data had been entered on 10patients {age 52.1 ± 10.3 year, 53% male, 87% diabetes, BMI 41.1 ± 8.9 kg/m2} and showed many benefits (Table 1) . There were 43 (4.2%) SAEs and 139 (13.9%) less serious AEs (Table 2) . All SAE patients made a full recovery and most derived significant benefit. The benefits of EB therapy are likely to reduce the complications of diabetes. This international data from the EB registry suggests that the likely benefits of EB, far outweigh the risks
