Abstract

See full text

A gastric band assembly has one or more bladders incorporated therein so that the distensibility of the gastric band assembly is increased. The distensibility relates to the relative strength with which the gastric band assembly with a bladder resists the application of additional band contact pressure. Distensibility is quantified by measuring the change in band contact dimension (e.g., diameter or area) versus the change in band contact pressure.
