Psychosocial and Behavioral Aspects of Bariatric Surgery

Sarwer, David B., Wadden, Thomas A., Fabricatore, Anthony N.·2005·Obesity Research

Abstract

Bariatric surgery has become an increasingly popular treatment option for individuals with extreme obesity (defined as a BMI ≥ 40 kg/m 2) or those with less severe obesity accompanied by significant comorbidities. Sustained postoperative weight loss and improvements in obesity‐related health problems make bariatric surgery the most effective treatment for this population. Nevertheless, most experts agree that psychosocial and behavioral factors contribute to successful postoperative outcomes. This paper reviews the literature on the preoperative psychosocial status, eating behaviors, and quality of life of patients who seek bariatric surgery. In addition, the paper examines studies that investigated changes in these factors postoperatively. The review concludes with an agenda for future research in this area.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
