Why Do Bariatric Surgery?
The August 23, 2007 edition of The New England Journal of Medicine publishes a landmark long term study regarding reduction in mortality
Sjostrom et al in the Swedish Obesity Study (SOS) show a 29% reduction in death at average follow-up of 10.9 years
Adams et al in a retrospective study of 7900 patients at 7.1 years, 40% reduction in mortality; 60% in cancer death; 92% in DM death

The Evidence Continues to Mount Weight and Metabolic Outcomes 12 Years after Gastric Bypass (NEJM 2017)
1156 patients divided into 3 distinct study groups; Roux-en-y group, sought but did not get Roux-en-y group, and never sought surgery group
At 12 years Roux-en-y group had 35kg weight loss, sought surgery group was 2.9kg weight loss, and never sought surgery group was 0kg

The Evidence Continues to Mount Weight and Metabolic Outcomes 12 Years after Gastric Bypass (NEJM 2017)
Metabolic Improvements Roux-en-y Group- Type 2 DM resolved in 66 of 88 patients (75%) at 2 years and 43 of 84
(51%) patients at 12 years Sought Surgery Group- Type 2 DM occurred in 42 of 164 (26%) of patients Never Sought Surgery Group- Type 2 DM occurred in 47 of 184 (26%) of patients
Lipid and Blood Pressure measurements also improved in the surgery group

Restrictive ProceduresLaparoscopic adjustable gastric banding
Most common WLS procedure world wide until the late 2000’s
Purely restrictive
In the U.S., two bands available - Realize® and LAP-BAND®
Sleeve gastrectomy Fastest growing option in the USA (2013/14–most common procedure in
U.S.)
Restrictive (Minimal malabsorption)
![Page 12: Care of the Post Bariatric Surgery Patient · 2020-03-18 · Offer bariatric surgery, as an adjunct to comprehensive lifestyle intervention, to improve some obesity‐ associated](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011907/5f48b6559d08823c713b10a9/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Malabsorptive Procedures Gastric bypass (Roux-en-y)
Was the most common WLS procedure done in the USA
Mostly restrictive, some malabsorption
Long-limb GBP and duodenal switch (or BPD) Much more rare (<1%)
Mainly malabsorptive
![Page 13: Care of the Post Bariatric Surgery Patient · 2020-03-18 · Offer bariatric surgery, as an adjunct to comprehensive lifestyle intervention, to improve some obesity‐ associated](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011907/5f48b6559d08823c713b10a9/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Laparoscopic Adjustable Gastric BandingCreates a small pouch that fills with food
Food squeezes the stomach, producing the sensation of fullness
Helps suppress appetite
Low mortality and complication rate
![Page 14: Care of the Post Bariatric Surgery Patient · 2020-03-18 · Offer bariatric surgery, as an adjunct to comprehensive lifestyle intervention, to improve some obesity‐ associated](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011907/5f48b6559d08823c713b10a9/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Sleeve Gastrectomy aka Gastric Sleeve Used initially as a “first-stage” procedure for patients with severe
obesity. Promotes weight loss making subsequent surgery less risky.
Second stage then a “bypass-type” procedure
Now used as a primary weight-loss procedure
Removes 75-80% of the greater curvature of the stomach. Leaves a “lesser curve based” tubular stomach pouch. Preserves the pylorus
Stomach is 60 ml – 100 ml, about the size and shape of a medium banana
![Page 15: Care of the Post Bariatric Surgery Patient · 2020-03-18 · Offer bariatric surgery, as an adjunct to comprehensive lifestyle intervention, to improve some obesity‐ associated](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011907/5f48b6559d08823c713b10a9/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Sleeve Gastrectomy• Works by decreasing Ghrelin levels
• Ghrelin is the hormone responsible for hunger
• Greater curve of the stomach removed• Stomach is where ghrelin is produced
• Minimal Malabsorption
• Anatomy remains nearly intact
• Fastest growing type of gastric surgery, became most popular in U.S. in 2014, now is almost 60% of all surgical weight loss procedures
• Full recovery from surgery in 2-3 weeks
• Average weight loss = 60-70% EBW
![Page 16: Care of the Post Bariatric Surgery Patient · 2020-03-18 · Offer bariatric surgery, as an adjunct to comprehensive lifestyle intervention, to improve some obesity‐ associated](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011907/5f48b6559d08823c713b10a9/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Gastric bypass (Roux-en-y)• The stomach is reduced to the size of an egg
• The ilium is attached to the stomach pouch, called the Roux limb
• A blind pouch is created called the hepatobillary limb
• Weight loss occurs as only small volumes of food can be consumed, and the food consumed is only partially absorbed
• Becoming a less popular option as of 2011
• 2nd most common weight loss procedure in 2017, just barely more common than a revision surgery

VA/DOD Clinical Practice Guidelines Offer bariatric surgery, as an adjunct to comprehensive lifestyle
intervention, for weight loss in adult patients with a body mass index (BMI) >40 kg/m2 or those with BMI 35.0‐39.9 kg/m2 with one or more obesity‐associated conditions. [A]
Offer bariatric surgery, as an adjunct to comprehensive lifestyle intervention, to improve some obesity‐ associated conditions in adult patients with a body mass index (BMI) >35.0 kg/m2. [A]
Current evidence is insufficient to assess the balance of benefits and harms of offering bariatric surgery as an adjunct to comprehensive lifestyle intervention, for weight loss or to improve some obesity‐associated conditions, to patients over age 65 or with a body mass index (BMI) <35 kg/m2. [I]

VA/DOD Clinical Practice Guidelines Engage all patients who are candidates for bariatric surgery in a
general discussion of the benefits and potential risks. If more detailed information is requested by the patient to assist in the decision‐making process, a consultation with a bariatric surgical team should occur. [EO]
Provide lifelong follow‐up after bariatric surgery to monitor adverse effects and complications, dietary restrictions, adherence to weight management behaviors and psychological health. [EO]

Acute Complications-Thiamine Deficiency Nausea, Vomiting, Dehydration
Be aware of Thiamine Deficiency Absorption reduced due to decreased acid and duodenal exclusion in
gastric bypass patients Symptoms include lower extremity weakness, peripheral neuropathy and
nystagmus/ dipoplia Peripheral neurologic symptoms can occur within weeks Wet and Dry Beriberi Wernicke’s encephalopathy reported as early as three (3) months Central Pontine Myelinolysis Parenteral supplementation if neurologic symptoms with 100mg/day for 7-14
days, then 10mg daily

Acute Complications- Marginal Ulcer Anastomotic/ Marginal Ulcers (Can also be a chronic complication)
Up to 20% early after gastric bypass (can be asymptomatic)
Commonly complaints of pinpoint abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, GI bleeding, free perforation
Risk Factors include NSAIDS, Smoking, Steroids
DX is confirmed by upper endoscopy
Treat with PPI, Sucralfate, improved nutrition, smoking cessation

Acute Complications- Anastomotic Leak Anastomotic Leak (aka Sleeve leak)
0-2% after Gastric Bypass, 1-2% after Gastric Sleeve
Almost always occurs very early, rare after two (2) weeks
Symptoms include tachycardia, abdominal pain, left sided chest pain, leukocytosis, fever, decreased urine output, and feelings of doom
Diagnosed by Upper GI, or CT scan + High Index of Suspicion Left Pleural Effusion should be a tip off to look for anastomotic leak
If contained, may require drainage
If free, will likely require surgery

Long Term Complications Defined as any complication that occurs >30 days after surgery
Practically speaking most of these occur months to years after surgery
Some of these are due to poor compliance with recommendations

Long Term ComplicationsCalcium, Vitamin D, and Fracture Risk
Calcium and Vitamin D Supplementation Roux-en-y patients are susceptible to multiple vitamin and nutrient
deficiencies compared to gastric sleeve
Theoretic Risk for Secondary Hyperparathyroidism after Gastric Bypass due to poor absorption of Calcium
Use Calcium Citrate instead of Calcium Carbonate (easier to absorb)
No data exists to recommend ideal Vitamin D and Calcium regimen
![Page 34: Care of the Post Bariatric Surgery Patient · 2020-03-18 · Offer bariatric surgery, as an adjunct to comprehensive lifestyle intervention, to improve some obesity‐ associated](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011907/5f48b6559d08823c713b10a9/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Long Term ComplicationsCalcium, Vitamin D, and Fracture Risk
The DEXA and Fracture Risk Controversy VA/DOD Clinical Practice Guidelines recommend Annual DEXA after
Roux-en-y
ASMBS recommends against routine DEXA in bariatric surgery patients
Evidence demonstrates fracture risk increases after Roux-en-y. Fracture pattern changes from obesity related to osteoporosis associated fractures
Fracture risk increases after gastric bypass, independent of amount of weight lost, regardless of Calcium or Vitamin D supplementation (poor data)
Overall fracture risk after Gastric Bypass is 10.1 in patients with diabetes and 7.7 in patients without diabetes per 1000 patient years

Long Term ComplicationsPregnancy
Majority of patients undergoing bariatric surgery are female 80% of Females undergoing bariatric surgery are of child bearing
age Pregnancy is NOT RECOMMENDED for 12-18 months after bariatric
surgery Pregnancy after an appropriate waiting period is considered safe Fertility is usually increased after bariatric surgery by improvement in
sex hormone profile

Long Term ComplicationsPregnancy and Screening
Post bariatric surgery status should be considered a risk factor for IUGR
Routine ultrasounds at 12 and 20 weeks should be performed (European Guideline)
A1C should be measured in 1st trimester to screen for pre-existing DM Glucose Tolerance Test as a screen for Gestational Diabetes is ill
advised in these patients (dumping syndrome)- use serial pre and post prandial finger sticks as an alternative
Abdominal Pain in the pregnant female presents a unique problem, and evaluation by both an obstetrician and a bariatric surgeon should be offered

Prevention of Weight RegainGeneral Recommendations
Support recommendations made by surgeon Usually a low carb, high protein diet is recommended Any diet that is “low energy” will provide weight loss
Beware of liquid calories
Use patient 1st language, avoid use of the word “Obese”
Encourage “Physical Activity”, avoid use of the word “Exercise”
Use of weight loss medication in addition to bariatric surgery not well studied
Ensure compliance with multivitamin and supplement regimen

Prevention of Weight RegainBehavioral Reasons
Increased frequency of eating/ grazing
Consuming calorie dense foods and liquid calories
Overcoming dumping syndrome
