What is Emmi?
Emmi (Expectation Management and Medical Information) is a series of online, interactive risk management programs that walk patients through every step of their upcoming surgery. The program helps set patient expectations from pre-op to post-op, including risks, benefits and alternatives.

Developed by Emmi Solutions in conjunction with Allergan, Emmi is very simple to use, conversational in tone and built using easy-to-understand language. As the patient interacts with Emmi, each click is recorded to create a permanent record of everything the patient saw, heard and did while viewing the program to provide definitive proof that they have been fully educated and informed. In addition, patients can view Emmi as many times as they like and share it with family and friends.

Two Emmi Programs for LAP-BAND®

EmmiPrep™, viewed before surgery, prepares patients by giving them a step-by-step explanation of their anatomy and the procedure. It educates patients on commonly known risks as well as pre-op instructions and recovery.

EmmiSuccess™ is a three-part series for post-op patients: Part One covers the first four to six weeks after surgery; Part Two explains adjustments; and Part Three introduces patients to lifestyle changes they may experience with the LAP-BAND® System by providing eating and exercise guidelines and answering common questions.

Testimonials
"The LAP-BAND® Emmi is just the best information tool I have ever seen. It is dynamic, easy to understand, very comprehensive, and has great illustrations. Emmi definitely serves as an additional informed consent for patients scheduled for LAP-BAND® surgery."

Chattanooga, TN Memorial Hospital

"I think Emmi will be a valuable asset to people who may be unsure of the procedure and the changes it will bring to their lives. It was good that you stress the fact that the LAP-BAND® will not be doing all the work; the patient has to do the biggest part."
