Weight Loss Surgery or Bariatric surgery refers to a lifesaving
procedure for morbidly obese patients who have not been successful
with other weight-loss attempts,such as exercise, medication, or
changes in diet.
These weight loss procedures limit the volume of food a patient can
consume in one sitting by affecting the digestive process, bypassing
certain part of intestine, or affecting calorie absorption rates. Dr.
Pradeep Jain explains these are not to be confused with liposuction or
other cosmetic procedures. They do not remove fatty tissue. Rather,
they restrict how much a person can eat or absorb, and thus, leave
them with a caloric deficit, and eventually, dramatic and life
changing weight loss.
Dr Pradeep Jain offers essential and honest advice and information
regarding all areas of weight loss surgery. We provide you with the
right tools and educate you how to achieve and get the very best from
your weight loss surgery.
If your GP thinks that weight loss surgery is right for you, you’ll be
referred to a specialist weight loss team. Dr Pradeep Jain will assess
you to decide if weight loss surgery is the right step to take. The
consultant should explain more to you about the different types of
surgery. They should also discuss the weight loss that can result, and
the changes to your lifestyle that you will need to make afterwards.
There are a variety of procedures under the umbrella of “bariatric
surgery.” Generally, there are three different categories. Restrictive
procedures. A surgeon uses vertical sleeves or gastric banding to
physically change the volume of food a patient can eat at once. He or
she will do so by reducing the actual size of the stomach organ, or
the size to which it can expand while eating.
-Vertical sleeves can remove three quarters of the stomach organ. The
stomach that remains is a narrow sleeve, which remains connected to
the intestines.
-Gastric banding procedures require a surgeon to put a band near the
top portion of the stomach.
Combined treatments. Gastric bypass, for example, changes the path of
the digestive tract. Food will bypass the majority of the stomach.
Malabsorptive procedures. Biliopancreatic diversion bypass and other
malabsorptive surgeries do not change how much food a person can eat
at once. Rather, they restrict the body’s calorie absorption process.
In the end, the surgery will create an alternative route for food,
which bypasses a large portion of the intestines.
Dr. Jain notes that some of these procedures are performed via “open
surgery,” a more traditional approach. They involve making a large
incision on the patient, for the surgeon to access the internal
organs.
However, as a laparoscopic surgeon, Dr. Pradeep Jain explains that
they can also be performed by using a small telescope and camera.
Laparoscopic surgery allows the doctor to see images of the internal
organs on a video monitor. It also avoids the need to make large
incisions, which result in lasting scars. Laparoscopic patients
typically spend less time in the hospital, endure less postoperative
discomfort, and are less prone to infection risks than those who
undergo traditional operation methods.
Who can undergo bariatric surgery or weight loss surgery ?
While many patients would enjoy losing weight, these operations are
not for everyone. Only those with dangerous weight levels, such as the
severely obese, are considered appropriate candidates. In general,
patients who are more than 100 pounds over their ideal body weight are
considered severely obese. In order to qualify, Dr. Pradeep Jain,
Fortis Hospital explains that patients must generally :
-Have a Body Mass Index (BMI) of at least 40, which has lasted for
five years or more, or have at least a BMI of 35 with dangerous
medical complications that are related to their unhealthy weight.
-Are between 18 and 65 years old. Any patients outside these age
confines may be considered for eligibility on a case-by-case basis.
-Must have made weight loss attempts in the past. In most cases, a
medical professional should have supervised these attempts.
Who is not eligible for the surgery?
There are a variety of situations or conditions that may limit a
person’s candidacy for bariatric procedures. They may include:
-Serious mental illness.
-Chronic intestinal diseases.
-Cancers or other conditions, which may over-complicate the surgery.
-Inability to receive general anesthesia treatment.
What are the benefits of the Bariatric surgery or Weight Loss Surgery
procedure?
Bariatric surgery is known to improve the quality of health for
patients, and even extend their lives. Many patients who have
undergone bariatric procedures are not as likely to die from diabetes,
cancer, or heart disease, compared to those who did not have the
operation.
