BUILES-GUTIERREZ, Aída Maired; ORTIZ-RAMIREZ, Lina; VALENCIA-URREA, Paola e LOPEZ-POMPEY⁴, Néstor. Clinical, biochemical characteristics and complications in bariatric surgery patients in 18 months of follow-up in a highly complex hospital. Iatreia [online]. 2019, vol.32, n.1, pp.16-24. ISSN 0121-0793. https://doi.org/10.17533/udea.iatreia.v32n1a02.
Objective:
To determine the clinical and biochemical characteristics, as well as the complications of bariatric surgery in 18 months of follow-up in a highly complex hospital, between 2012 and 2016.
Methods:
A descriptive, retrospective study was performed in patients undergoing bariatric surgery (gastric by-pass or gastric sleeve), where the clinical and biochemical characteristics, as well as the complications and post-intervention changes were evaluated in a before-after analysis.
Results:
Fifty nine patients were studied, 89.8 % were women, with an average age of 41.8 ± 10,8. The 76,3 % underwent gastric bypass and 23.7 % gastric sleeve. The mean percentage of weight lost at 18 months was 81 % ± 22. There was a significant reduction in abdominal circumference. 100 % of patients experienced changes in multimorbidities.
Conclusion:
We found a significant decrease in the percentage of body mass index. In addition, a change in comorbidities and modification in biomarkers was observed. There was no post-operative mortality 18 months after surgery.
