Obesity Surgery
Bariatric surgery is a type of surgery in which changes are made in the digestive tract for the purpose of weight loss, including procedures such as gastric bypass. This type of surgery is usually recommended for people who are unable to lose weight through diet and exercise, or whose weight causes serious health problems. Some processes restrict the amount of food that can be eaten while others limit the body’s ability to absorb nutrients. Some procedures combine both approaches. While bariatric surgery has many benefits, all types of weight loss surgery carry serious risks and possible side effects. Patients must be willing to make permanent changes in their diet and exercise habits in order to achieve the long-term success of bariatric surgery.
Why is Bariatric Surgery needed?
The purpose of bariatric surgery is to reduce the risk of potentially life-threatening weight-related health problems such as losing too much weight, stroke, heart disease, hypertension, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) or non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), sleep apnea, and type 2 diabetes. It is usually recommended when other weight loss methods such as bariatric surgery, diet, and exercise have been tried.
Bariatric surgery may be an option for people who meet certain medical criteria, such as those with a body mass index (BMI) of 40 or higher (considered extreme obesity), or those between 35 and 39.9, and those with significant weight-related health problems such as type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, or severe sleep apnea. In some cases, those with a BMI between 30 and 34 and those with significant weight-related health problems may be eligible for certain types of weight loss surgery. However, not all persons who are overweight are suitable candidates for bariatric surgery, and eligibility for this type of surgery often requires an extensive medical screening process.
People who want to make long-term adjustments to a healthier lifestyle after bariatric surgery may need to participate in follow-up programs that monitor their diet, lifestyle, behavior, and health issues.
