Surgical treatment- bariatric surgery
and devices
 It is an effective treatment option for those affected by
severe obesity

the stomach can hold, causing malabsorption of
nutrients, or by a combination of both gastric
restriction and malabsorption.
 Indications:
 BMI >40, Severe obesity (or weighing more than 100
pounds over ideal body weight)
 BMI 35-40 with significant obesity-related conditions
(type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, sleep apnea or high
cholesterol)

 ReShape™ Dual Balloon.
Surgical treatment
Surgical treatment
 Sleeve gastrectomy is currently the most common bariatric procedure,
however a medical treatment, surgical treatment needs to be individualized
based on comorbid conditions and other multiple factors.
Surgical treatment-
bariatric surgery and devices
 There are risks involved with bariatric surgery, as
well as any other surgical procedure.

Editor's Notes

  1. Moderate levels of physical activity appear to confer a significant health benefit, although greater amounts of activity afford greater protection from premature death (figure 3) [36]. Progressing from lower to higher levels of physical activity has been shown to reduce overall mortality [33,35,37,39]. Vigorous exercise (at least 20 minutes three times a week) combined with regular exercise (at least 30 minutes of moderate activity most days of the week) was associated with a 50 percent decreased mortality risk in an observational study involving over 250,000 men and women aged 50 to 71 years [35]. Data from the Framingham Heart Study show that moderate and high, compared with low, physical activity levels increase life expectancy for men at age 50 by 1.3 and 3.7 years, respectively; results were similar for women (1.5 and 3.5 years)  The risk of dying is decreased in those who exercise regularly. As an example, one study found that men who engaged in moderately vigorous sports had a 23 percent lower risk of death than men who were less active [2]. Exercise also helps to lower the risk of death in men with coronary artery disease (figure 1) [3]. ●Exercise is an essential component of weight management programs. Exercise burns calories and may help to burn calories even while not exercising. Dieting can lead to loss of muscle, but exercise can help maintain muscle mass while dieting. (See &amp;quot;Patient education: Weight loss treatments (Beyond the Basics)&amp;quot;.) ●Exercise improves blood sugar control in people with diabetes and can help prevent or delay the onset of type 2 diabetes. (See &amp;quot;Patient education: Diabetes mellitus type 2: Overview (Beyond the Basics)&amp;quot;.) ●Aerobic exercise helps decrease blood pressure; this effect may be even greater in people with high blood pressure. (See &amp;quot;Patient education: High blood pressure treatment in adults (Beyond the Basics)&amp;quot;.) ●Exercise often improves the blood fats (lipid profile) by decreasing triglyceride levels and raising high-density lipoprotein (good cholesterol) levels. (See &amp;quot;Patient education: High cholesterol and lipids (hyperlipidemia) (Beyond the Basics)&amp;quot;.) ●Most people report a reduction in stress after they exercise. Research has shown that exercise is associated with reduced tension, anxiety, and depression. ●Weightbearing exercise helps to prevent osteoporosis and reduces the incidence of fractures. (See &amp;quot;Patient education: Osteoporosis prevention and treatment (Beyond the Basics)&amp;quot;.) ●Exercise training can improve circulation and exercise tolerance for people who have angina (chest pain from a reduced blood supply to the heart). After exercise training, a person may be able to exercise longer or at a greater intensity. (See &amp;quot;Patient education: Angina treatment — medical versus interventional therapy (Beyond the Basics)&amp;quot;.) ●Some evidence suggests that exercise can provide protection against breast and prostate cancer, delay or prevent dementia, and decrease the risk of gallstone disease. ●Exercise can help with quitting sm

  3. Warm up — Exercise sessions should begin with a 5- to 10-minute period of warm-up. Start with some low-level aerobic exercises (walking, stationary cycling, calisthenics) and then do stretches and flexibility movements. The warm-up period allows for a gradual increase in the heart rate and may reduce the risk of injuries. Workout — It is a good idea to mix up aerobic exercise, strength training, and stretching so as to keep the workout fun and interesting. Aerobic exercise — Walking is an excellent aerobic activity. Cycling, rowing, stair machine climbing, and other endurance-type activities are also great. Swimming and water aerobics are excellent for people with arthritis. Low-impact activities are recommended because they are less likely to result in physical injury. Running on a street is a higher-impact activity because of the stresses on the feet and legs as they strike the ground with each step. The exercises should be enjoyable and simple to carry out to encourage a long-term commitment. It may be best to vary the exercises you do each week (such as swim on three of the days and walk on three of the days) to decrease repetitive strain to your muscles and other tissues. There is no age specific heart rate recommendation; a specific heart rate is not necessary to achieve health benefits. If you are breathless, fatigued, and sweating, you have worked hard enough. During moderate-intensity exercise, you should be able to carry on a conversation. A minimum of 30 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic exercise (eg, brisk walking) is recommended on five days each week. Alternately, you can perform 20 minutes of vigorous-intensity aerobic exercise (eg, jogging) on three days each week. This recommendation is in addition to routine, light-intensity activities of daily living (eg, cooking, casual walking, shopping, etc) [4]. Resistance training — Resistance training can be done with weights, machines, or exercise bands. It should be performed at least twice a week with at least 48 hours of rest between sessions. Resistance training is commonly described in terms of &amp;quot;sets&amp;quot; of &amp;quot;repetitions.&amp;quot; ●A repetition is a single completed back and forth motion of a resistance exercise, such as bending and extending the arm at the elbow while holding a weight in the hand. ●A set is a number of repetitions done without resting. Most experts recommend at least one set of exercises, including 8 to 12 repetitions, for each of the major muscle groups. Begin with minimal resistance (light weights, resistive bands, or even a can of food) to allow the muscles and other tissues to adapt. Examples of exercises for the upper body are shown in a figure (figure 3). It is important to use proper technique. If you belong to a health club or gym you might ask a trainer to observe technique. Be sure to breathe normally while lifting weights. Do not hold the breath; instead, exhale with exertion. Do not perform resistance training if you are in pain or have swelling anywhere. Stretching — Stretching and flexibility exercises should include every major joint (hip, back, shoulder, knee, upper trunk, neck). It is best not to stretch &amp;quot;cold&amp;quot; muscles, so engage in a few minutes of low-intensity aerobic exercise first. Movement into a stretch should be slow, and the stretch itself should be held for approximately 10 to 30 seconds. Do not bounce while beginning or performing a stretch. Stretching exercises are shown in a figure (figure 4). Each exercise should be performed several times. Stretch and yoga classes are also a good way to remain flexible. The stretch should not cause pain but only mild discomfort. Cool down — Cool-down exercises should be done for approximately five minutes at the end of an exercise session. Similar to the warm-up period, cool-down may include low-level aerobic exercise (such as slow walking), calisthenics, and stretching. This allows the body to clear acid that has built up in the muscles and allows more blood back into the circulation because less is sent to the muscles. This helps to prevent muscle cramps and sudden drops in blood pressure that can cause lightheadedness.
  4. WHEN TO SEEK HELP — In order to exercise safely, it&amp;apos;s important to know the warning signs that could indicate a problem. If any of these problems occur, you should stop the exercise or activity and contact your health care provider immediately: ●Pain or pressure in the chest, arms, throat, jaw or back ●Nausea or vomiting during or after exercise ●Palpitations or heart flutters or a sudden burst of a very fast heart rate ●Inability to catch your breath ●Lightheadedness, dizziness or feeling faint during exercise (feeling lightheaded after exercise may mean that a longer cool-down period is needed) ●Feeling very weak or very tired ●Pains in joints, shins, heels or calf muscles (this is not an emergency but should be evaluated if it does not resolve) PRECAUTIONS ●Remember to drink fluids during and after exercise. Thirst is a good indicator that more fluids are needed. ●Do not exercise outdoors if the temperature is too hot or too cold. ●In cooler weather, it is better to wear layers of clothes while exercising outdoors. A layer of clothing can be removed if needed. ●Wear supportive, well-fitting running or walking shoes. Replace shoes when signs of deterioration develop (eg, cracking, separation of shoe from the sole, imprint of the foot in the insole). The amount of time exercise shoes will last depends upon a number of factors, including how often and where the shoes are worn.
  5. Diet and exercise should be continued with medical treatment or surgery.
