Weight loss surgeries lead to nutritional deficiencies for many reasons. Patients have to be on supplements for at least 8-12 months of the surgery. In addition, patients may need a lifetime supplementation. BxVitality is formulated to meet the need of bariatric patients taking into account the difficulities they may experience when ingesting the tablets. BxVitality is chewable that can be also dissolved or swallowed. The serving size is only one tablet per day.
The document discusses various current and emerging bariatric surgery procedures and technologies, including sleeve gastrectomy, revisional surgeries, endoscopic procedures like TOGA and gastric stimulation devices. It provides an overview of the effectiveness and long-term outcomes of sleeve gastrectomy based on available studies. The future of obesity treatment is explored with possibilities like implantable gastric stimulators and technologies that monitor eating and activity patterns.
This is a presentation Dr. beck and Dr. Eakin give at the bariatric information sessions at Jordan Valley Medical Center, in Salt Lake City, Utah. It provides strategies fro medical weight loss, an it discusses the pros and cons of common bariatric operations.
Endocrine issues swirl around the Bariatric patient: Diabetes, thyroid conditions, and more. What do clinicians need to be aware of when caring for these patients pre or post surgery? What are the unique endocrinologic issues which explain the mechanism of success with bariatric surgery? Learn here.
Bariatric surgery by Dr B D Soni, army hospital Drbd Soni
This document discusses various types of bariatric surgery procedures for treating obesity. It begins by defining bariatric surgery and obesity classifications. It then covers criteria for surgery candidacy and contraindications. The main sections describe restrictive procedures like gastric banding and sleeve gastrectomy, malabsorptive procedures, and combination/mixed procedures like Roux-en-Y gastric bypass. For each procedure, it provides details on how it works to induce weight loss and potential complications. Pre- and post-operative considerations are also reviewed.

Bariatric surgery is a safe and effective treatment option for those affected by severe obesity. Gastric bypass surgery is a type of weight-loss surgery. It's important to understand risks and results of gastric bypass and other types of bariatric surgery.
Psychological Effects After Bariatric SurgeryAshley Rogers
The document discusses psychological effects that can occur after bariatric surgery. It finds that bariatric surgery improves quality of life and leads to positive effects like enhanced self-esteem and reduced depression and anxiety. However, it also finds potential negative psychological effects like body dissatisfaction, worries about weight regain, and relationship difficulties. It recommends ongoing psychotherapy and support groups after surgery to help patients maintain improvements and address issues as they arise.
Bariatric surgery, also known as weight loss surgery, refers to various procedures that modify the gastrointestinal tract to reduce nutrient intake and absorption, helping obese individuals lose weight. The most common procedures are gastric bypass surgery, sleeve gastrectomy, adjustable gastric banding, and biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch. These procedures have advantages like substantial and long-term weight loss but also risks like nutritional deficiencies, complications from surgery, and potential need for reoperation or band removal.

This document discusses obesity, its causes and health risks, and the evidence that bariatric surgery is an effective treatment option. It provides details on different types of bariatric surgeries performed since the 1950s and their effectiveness based on clinical studies. It also outlines patient selection criteria and risks for bariatric surgery, and discusses how surgery works to induce weight loss and resolve obesity-related diseases through hormonal and other physiological changes.
Rationale for Bariatric surgery: Medical & Financial Argumentsforegutsurgeon
This document summarizes the rationale for bariatric surgery from both medical and financial perspectives. It provides evidence from several studies that bariatric surgery results in significant and sustained weight loss, resolution of diabetes and other comorbidities in the majority of patients. Cost-effectiveness analyses also indicate that while more expensive initially, bariatric surgery provides better health outcomes and is cost-effective compared to non-surgical weight loss treatments. However, more research is still needed to fully understand long-term impacts and complications.
Bariatric surgery is effective for weight loss and resolution of obesity-related diseases. The most common procedures are gastric bypass, gastric banding, and sleeve gastrectomy, which use restriction, malabsorption, or a combination to reduce stomach size and/or bypass portions of the small intestine. While short-term complications within 30 days are less than 10%, long-term nutritional deficiencies and need for additional procedures are risks. However, studies show bariatric surgery significantly improves long-term health outcomes and reduces mortality rates compared to usual medical care.
This document discusses metabolic syndrome and bariatric surgery from an endocrinology perspective. It defines metabolic syndrome and outlines the large scale of obesity. Guidelines for considering bariatric surgery for patients with type 2 diabetes and lower BMIs are presented. The rationale for using bariatric surgery includes non-weight loss mechanisms and efficacy. Evidence shows surgery is more effective than medicine in reducing HbA1c. Post-surgery, endocrine issues and lab monitoring are discussed. Opportunities for endocrinologists and surgeons to work together through education, innovation, and leadership are presented.
This document summarizes surgical complications of gastrectomy. It describes intra-operative complications such as hemorrhage, ischemia, and injuries to organs. Post-operative complications are categorized as immediate (within 30 days), early (within 6 months), or late (after 6 months). Immediate complications include respiratory issues, infections, and thrombosis. Early complications involve anastomotic hemorrhage, leaks, and obstructions. Late complications consist of strictures, ulcers, fistulas, post-gastrectomy syndrome, and small stomach syndrome. The document provides details on causes, symptoms, and management of several common complications.
Bariatric surgery can help treat obesity and related health conditions through restrictive and malabsorptive techniques. Key hormonal changes may contribute to reduced appetite and improved metabolism. Specifically, surgeries like Roux-en-Y gastric bypass and sleeve gastrectomy may lower levels of the appetite-stimulating hormone ghrelin in the short term. Long-term nutritional deficiencies are less common with restrictive procedures but still require monitoring and supplementation. Bariatric surgery has been shown to resolve or improve conditions like diabetes, hypertension, and sleep apnea in the majority of patients.
Louise Stokes gave a presentation on how social media can be used as an integrated marketing communications tool. She discussed how companies can use platforms like Twitter to monitor consumer sentiment and address potential PR issues quickly. The presentation gave the example of PepsiCo, who intensified their social media efforts after seeing critical tweets about a controversial ad. Pepsi's brand director posted a quick apology on Twitter, averting a larger crisis. The presentation concluded that social media amplifies the urgency of crisis communications and that companies must have important rules for engaging consumers online coherently and consistently.
This document provides information on bariatric surgery. It begins with definitions of bariatric and discusses the increasing prevalence of bariatric procedures over time. It then covers topics like the causes and pathophysiology of obesity, degrees of obesity based on BMI, obesity-related comorbidities, options for treatment like diet, drugs and surgery. It provides details on various bariatric surgical procedures that are either restrictive, malabsorptive or a combination. Risks, guidelines for candidacy, pre and post-op care are discussed. In summary, the document is a comprehensive overview of bariatric surgery, its increasing use and role in treating severe obesity and related health conditions.
