Filter by:This research was conducted to determine the effect of acupressure applied to patients after bariatric surgery on gastrointestinal distress, pain and anxiety. The data of the study was collected at Aktif Private Kocaeli Hospital General Surgery Clinic between January 2022 and February 2023. The study was conducted with 90 (30 control, 30 intervention and 30 placebo) patients who underwent bariatric surgery. As a result of the research, application to ST25 and CV12 acupressure areas after bariatric surgery increased gas and stool output. It reduced abdominal distension. This enabled patients to start oral intake early. Application to the SP6 area reduced abdominal pain. Acupressure applied to the LI4 area was not effective in reducing nausea and vomiting. Massage to the HT7 acupressure area alone was not sufficient to relieve anxiety.
Bariatric surgery (BS), an effective treatment for severe obesity and its comorbidities, may result in micronutrient and vitamin deficiencies. This monocentric prospective observational study aimed at evaluating the efficacy of a specifically designed vitamin/mineral formula (Bariatrifast) for preventing and treating micronutrient deficiencies in patients submitted to BS.
In this study, it was planned to evaluate the effectiveness of the use of music therapy, which is a non-pharmacological method, in addition to pharmacological treatment in patients with PONV after bariatric surgery, whose application frequency is increasing in the treatment of obesity, and to determine its effect on patient satisfaction. The findings of this study are considered to be effective in preventing nausea and vomiting, providing patient comfort, increasing evidence-based nursing knowledge and increasing the quality of care.
Enhanced recovery after bariatric surgery imposes a significant reduction in length of hospital stay. However beneficial for the overall recovery it reduces the hospital observation time. after a laparoscopic surgery during which one of the longest resection line in surgery or anastomosis are created. Therefore, discovering possible safe and effective ways of pharmacologically reducing surgical blood loss and reducing the risk of postoperative bleeding would be an invaluable addition to the protocol. The systemic use of tranexamic acid (TXA) has been shown to be effective in many types of surgery, reducing the incidence of post-operative bleeding and thereby reducing the rate of reoperation.
The goal of this a quasi-trial model with pre and post-test control group is to determine the effect of laughter yoga on depression and serotonin levels in patients undergoing bariatric surgery. The main question's it aims to answer are: - Question 1: Does laughter yoga reduce the level of depression in patients undergoing bariatric surgery? - Question 2: Does laughter yoga increase serotonin levels in patients who have undergone bariatric surgery? 158 patients who underwent bariatric surgery in the General Surgery Service of a university hospital in Malatya/Turkey and 6-24 months after the operation participated in the study. Sample size was determined using power analysis and 62 patients were sampled. 31 patients were determined as the control group and 31 patients as the experimental group. 10 sessions of laughter yoga were applied to the patients in the experimental group who agreed to participate in the study that met the criteria. No intervention was made in the control group.
Retrospective study: Analysis of characteristics of patients that were hospitalised with nonsurgical complications after bariatric surgery. Cross-sectional study: To present and evaluate (clinical) parameters and quality of life measures of patients with nonsurgical complications after bariatric surgery compared to bariatric patients without hospitalisation for complications and obese patients.
The goal of this randomized clinical trial is to evaluate glycemic control in patients with morbid obesity and type 2 diabetes after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGBP) and RYGBP with fundus resection. The main questions to answer are: - Rate of diabetes remission and the role of the gastrointestinal hormones - Whether fundus resection leads to improved glycemic control Patients will randomly undergo typical RYGBP or RYGBP with fundus resection. Gastrointestinal hormones profile [ghrelin, glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), peptide YY (PYY), glucagon], glucose levels and insulin response will be measured preoperatively, at 6 months and at 12 months, during 120-min OGTT.
The aim of this observational study is to define national reference values, according to the achievable benchmarks of care method (ABC™), for laparoscopic bariatric surgery in Sweden. The primary outcome is to identify the best possible, yet achievable, results during and after bariatric surgery. The second outcome to investigate if there are risk groups for complications, and if so perform risk-adjusted benchmark-calculations.
Obesity is defined as abnormal or excessive fat accumulation that can impair health. Obesity is considered a risk factor for diseases such as hypertension, heart failure, coronary heart diseases, diabetes mellitus, sleep apnea, and osteoarthritis. The prevalence of obesity is increasing all over the world. Therefore, it is very important to decide on the most appropriate treatment therapy method for the treatment of obesity. Bariatric surgery has become an accepted method in the treatment of obesity in recent years. It is the most effective and efficient treatment method in the long term for individuals with severe obesity. Exercise therapy is recommended by literature to maintain weight loss, prevent weight regain and minimize complications after bariatric surgery. However, there is no consensus on the appropriate exercise program. There is heterogeneity in the type, intensity and duration of exercise. In addition, the effect of clinical pilates exercises in the post-bariatric period has not been examined. Moreover, there is no study conducted in the post-bariatric period with telerehabilitation, which has been very popular in recent years. This study aims to reveal the effect of clinical pilates exercises on the functionality and physical fitness of post-bariatric patients. The results of our study will also contribute to the literature by revealing the effect of telerehabilitation on these patients.
This study aimed to analyze spatio-temporal characteristics of gait, physical activity level and changes in quality of life in patients by measuring conditions before bariatric surgery and third-month after the surgery.
