Assessing the quality of patients with morbid obesity after minigastrobypass surgery

Abstract

Background. The issue of obesity is becoming more and more urgent every year. Because of this, bariatric surgery is becoming increasingly popular. Objective: to assess the quality of life of obese patients after mini-gastrobypass surgery with a biliopancreatic loop length of 150 and 180 cm. Materials and methods. Patients after minigastrobypass surgery were divided into two groups depending on the length of the biliopancreatic loop. Bariatric surgery was assessed according to BAROS. Results. For the first component of BAROS, the average score in group I was 2.15 and 2.13 in group II of patients. The average score for the second component of BAROS was 2.16 points in group I and 2.05 in group II. The average score for the third component in group I was 2.42 versus 2.02 points in group II. Conclusions. Thus, when comparing the results for the three components of the BAROS bariatric analysis reporting and evaluation system, a higher quality of life score was obtained in the group of patients who underwent mini-gastrobypass with a biliopancreatic loop length of 150 cm.
