Specific issues in anesthesia of obese patients
The treatment of obesity requires an interdisciplinary approach that includes a wide range of dietary measures, changes in life habits, physical activity, and the use of various medications. Most of these measures, however, only result in a limited and temporary loss of body mass, which is one of the reasons for an increasing tendency towards resorting to surgical treatment or bariatric surgery. Bariatric procedures change the capacity and anatomy of the digestive system and are recommended as treatment for obesity in persons with a BMI above 40 kg/m2 or persons with a BMI above 35 kg/m2 with concomitant diseases such as arterial hypertension, diabetes, or cardiorespiratory disorders.
