Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether creating a gastrotomy hole in the stomach during gastric surgery increases a patients risk of intra-abdominal infection

We hypothesize that a gastrotomy does not contaminate the abdomen with clinically significant bacterial pathogens
Detailed Description: We propose to investigate the bacterial load and contamination patients experience during laparoscopic roux-en-y gastric bypass while having their gastrotomy for gastrojejunostomy In all patients who undergo laparoscopic roux-en-y gastric bypass the stomach must be opened to the peritoneal cavity while placing an anvil for gastrojejunostomy

Samples of gastric fluid will be collected and sent for analysis in all patients Samples of peritoneal fluid will be collected prior to and after the creation of the gastrotomy using intraperitoneal irrigation with approximately 500 cc of normal saline Bacterial counts and identification will be recorded for each sample
