Aspiration therapy is a weight loss therapy in the United States for patients with a body mass index between 35 kg/m and 55 kg/m. Aspiration therapy allows patients to remove up to one-third of calories consumed at a meal and causes patients to eat fewer calories than prior to starting treatment. Studies demonstrate 14.2% to 21.5% total body weight loss in participants who complete 1 year of treatment and maintenance of weight loss in patients treated for 2 years. Aspiration therapy is a safe and effective new treatment of obesity.
在美国，抽吸疗法是一种针对体重指数在35千克/平方米至55千克/平方米之间患者的减肥疗法。抽吸疗法能让患者每餐减少摄入多达三分之一的热量，并使患者摄入的热量比开始治疗前更少。研究表明，完成1年治疗的参与者总体重减轻了14.2%至21.5%，接受2年治疗的患者体重得以维持。抽吸疗法是一种安全有效的肥胖症新疗法。
