Abstract

Introduction: Bariatric surgery is an effective option widely used to treat severe obesity. It is essential understanding the profile and clinical features of patients subjected to bariatric surgery and  identify factors associated with high incidence of postoperative complications. Objectives: Describing the profile of patients subjected to bariatric surgery in a Teaching Hospital of Vitória City-ES/Brazil, featuring the sample, as well as describing the main postoperative complications and their associated factors. Methods: Cross-sectional descriptive study with individuals subjected to bariatric surgery in a state tertiary referral hospital in Brazil. Sociodemographic and clinical data about the pre- and postoperative periods were collected in patients’ medical records. Results and conclusion: in total, 181 medical records of patients subjected to bariatric surgery from January 2014 to January 2016 were analyzed. Brown (53.6%) women (91.2%) at mean age 42.4±10.7 years prevailed in the sample. Arterial hypertension was the most prevalent comorbidity (64.4%) and it was followed by gastritis (66.3%). Open access (non-laparoscopic) surgery and large number of preoperative comorbidities were positively correlated to the incidence of postoperative complications. There were no association between surgical access route and the following variables: hospitalization time and postoperative use of oxygen catheter. Preoperative physical therapy and body mass index did not show association with the following postoperative factors: number of respiratory and non-respiratory complications, hospitalization time and oxygen catheter using. It is of paramount importance identifying factors associated with higher incidence of postoperative complications in order to adopt proper strategies to reduce risks for patients subjected to bariatric surgery.
