Bariatric Surgery

The Effect of Bariatric Surgery on Body Mass Index, Blood Pressure and Blood Sugar in Morbidly Obese Patients



Abstract

Overweight and obese patients increase their risk of morbidity from hypertension, dyslipidemia, type 2 diabetes, coronary artery disease, stroke, gallbladder disease, sleep apnea, and respiratory disease, and endometrial, breast, prostate, and colon cancers. The risk of death from all causes increases throughout the range of moderate and severe overweight for both men and women in all age groups. The estimated annual number of deaths attributed to obesity in the United States is 280,000.

CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION

Outline of the Study

Obesity is a major health care problem in the United States. The body mass index (BMI) is the standard measure of obesity. A BMI >25 kg/m2 is defined as overweight and obesity as a BMI >30 kg/m2. Obese patients may be sensitive to the respiratory depressant effect of opioid analgesics. Alternative methods for analgesia may be beneficial for management of bariatric surgery. Study will evaluate the effect of dexmedetomidine on anesthetic requirements during surgery, hemodynamic, recovery profile and morphine use in the postoperative period. (Levy 2004)

Limitation of the Study

A number of limitations of our study must be mentioned. These limitations also provide avenues for further research.

A major limitation is that only one organization was selected. In future studies a number of different industries can be selected to improve generalizability.

Secondly, our study will use data obtained from customers to a limited extent. Additional studies in this field should use customer-based data to a greater extent than we will to achieve a deeper understanding of the processes that ...
