Objectives • To gain understanding of the nutrition care process for bariatric surgery • To understand the different types of weight loss surgery procedures. • To become informed about different complications and nutrient deficiencies that are commonly associated with bariatric surgeries.
Definition • Bariatric surgery is a surgical procedure designated for weight-loss in severely overweight people. It reduces and bypasses the stomach or small intestine in order to achieve significant and permanent weight loss.
Definition • Overweight - A body mass index (BMI) 25-29.9 • Obesity - A BMI ≥ 30 • A waist circumference of ≥ 40 in. in men, and ≥35 in. in women carries increased risk. • Morbid Obesity - BMI ≥ 40 http://www.nhlbi.nih.gov/health/public/heart/obesity/lose_wt/risk.htm
Obesity and the U.S. • Between 2005-2006, more than one third of U.S., or over 72 million adults were obese (33.3% for men, 35.3% for women) according to the most recent NHANES study • “Recent data show racial and ethnic obesity disparities for women but not for men. Non-Hispanic black and Mexican- American women were more likely to be obese than non-Hispanic white women.” 1Ogden CL, Carroll MD, McDowell MA, Flegal KM. Obesity among adults in the United States – no change since 2003—2004. NCHS data brief no 1. Hyattsville, MD: National Center for Health Statistics, 200
Obesity Prevalence in the U.S. in 2007 • http://www.cdc.gov/nccdphp/dnpa/obesity/trend/maps/index.htm
Purpose • Bariatric surgery performed only on people with morbid obesity or have obesity connected with chronic health disorders that are commonly linked with obesity. • Overweight and obesity are significantly correlated with diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, asthma, arthritis, and poor health status. • Researcher’s concluded bariatric surgery could help cure T2DM (Longe J. 2006) http://jama.ama-assn.org/cgi/content/abstract/289/1/76; Longe, J. (2006). The Gale Encyclopedia of Medicine. New York: Gale Cengage.
Who is a Candidate? • Obese individuals who do not have any psychological, emotional, or medical problems. • Must be between the of 18-60 years of age. • Individuals over 100 lbs. of their ideal body weight. • BMI ≥ 40 • BMI ≥ 35 with associated serious health problems such as diabetes and heart disease - due to their excess weight.
Current Bariatric Surgical Procedures Procedure Classification Roux-en-YPrimarily Restrictive/ Partially Malabsorptive Laparoscopic Gastric Banding Restrictive (Lap-band) Biliopancreatic Diversion Malabsorptive (BPD) ,
Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass A small (10-30mL) pouch is anastomosed to a Roux limb of the jejunum. The length of the Roux limb determines the level of malabsorption and weight loss.
Laparoscopic Surgery Laparoscopic surgery is a minimally invasive surgery. The pouch created starts off at having the ability to hold 1 oz. of material.
Biliopancreatic Diversion Removal of 70% of the stomach In comparison to the RYGB, the length from the stomach to the intestine to the colon is much short-promoting malabsorption. Due to its malabsorptive nature, the BPD requires lifelong follow-up http://www.obesitysurgeryinfo.co.uk/exports/gb1.jpg
Optimal Weight Loss Procedure • According to clinical research study by the American Journal of Medicine, Roux-en-Y was favorable in comparison to laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding. • After 1 year, excess weight loss was considerably greater for those with Roux-en-Y. Excess weight loss at 76% for Roux-en-Y, and 48% laparoscopic banding. • Patient satisfaction favored Roux-en-Y • Concluded, surgery is a cost-effective intervention (Avenell et al. 2004) • American Journal of Medicine
General Complications • The obesity epidemic within the U.S. has exponentially increased bariatric procedures performed which as therefore led to an increased awareness of the complications • Anastomatic leak • Thromboembolism • Internal hernia • Ulcer formation • Cholelithiasis • Hemorrhage • Nutritional complications Journal of the American Dietetic Association 2006
Surgery Outcomes • On average, morbidly obese patients will lose 60% more of their excess body weight than individuals using conventional weight loss methods (Buchwald et al. 2004) • Success of the surgery is measured at losing 50% more of the excess body weight.

Pre-Operative Guidelines • Exercise: Mild exercise (20 min./day 3-4 times/week) • Psychological Evaluation • Begin healthful diet in order to assist weight loss
Post-Operative Guidelines • For the first few days, small, frequent servings of water and ice chips (1oz.) • Progress diet as tolerated • Liquids • Pureed Foods • Solid Foods • Initial gastric capacity is 30 to 60 mL, with a progression to 120 to 150 mL. • Patients need to eat for 20 minutes or more in order to induce the feeling of satiety and avoid bolus eating. • Food should be well chewed and eaten in small volumes
Post-Operative Continued • Liquids • Not ingested during mealtime • Consume well before mealtime or 30 minutes prior • 48 to 64 oz. (6 to 8 cups) daily of non-caloric liquids between meals • Preferably, proteins should be consumed before fats and carbohydrates. • Post-operative dietary counseling plays an imperative role in the success of long-term weight loss.
Foods To Avoid • Carbonated or Caffeinated Beverages • Fried Foods • Peanut Butter • Raw Vegetables and Fruit Skins (for 3 months) • Red Meat (for 3 months) • High Sugar Containing Foods University of Virgina Health Systems
Dumping Syndrome • Dumping syndrome may occur when concentrated sweets & high fats foods enter your intestine from your pouch • Often occurs after individuals ingest high sugar foods such as deserts, sodas, and candy. It can also occur when spicy, fried, or greasy foods are eaten. • Two types of dumping: • Early: 30-60 minutes after eating • Late: 1-3 hours after eating
Lifestyle Changes: New Habits • Eat small amounts • Eat and drink slowly • Chew food thoroughly • Drink liquids between meals • Try new foods one at a time • Take your recommended vitamin/mineral supplements MayoClinic.com
Nutritional Considerations • Gastric Banding surgical patients may develop deficiencies in Iron and vitamin B-12 • Roux-en-Y procedures may induce nutrient deficiencies in calcium, iron, folic acid. In addition, dumping syndrome can be common in this procedure. • Dehydration is a common concern for all of the procedures, along with an increase for gallstones. • A vitamin/mineral supplement is generally recommended.
Bariatric Surgery: Nutrient Considerations • Nutrient deficiencies have been observed post bariatric surgery, particularly pertaining to Roux-en-Y surgery. • *Iron • *Vitamin B12 • *Folate • *Calcium • *Vitamin D • *Protein Shah, M., Simah, V., & Garg, A.

Folate • It is recommended that those with folate deficiencies should take 400 µg of folate consistently on a daily basis. • Primary reason for deficiency is decreased folate intake • Malabsorption not at issue • Folate can be absorbed over the entire length of the small intestine. • Also common in RYGB patients • As high as 38% after surgery Shah, M., Simah, V., & Garg, A. (2006). Long-Term Impact of Bariatric Surgery on Body Weight, Comorbidities, and Nutritional Status. Journal of Endocrinology and Metabolism, 91(11), 4223-4231
Calcium • Calcium deficiencies possibly due to: • malabsorption because of bypassing the duodenum and proximal jejunum. • intolerance to rich sources of calcium such as milk • defective absorption of vitamin D due to fat malabsorption • Deficiency rate of 10% in RYGB • 1200–1500 mg/d of calcium recommended Bariatric Surgery: Postoperative Concerns.

Protein • Recommended - 60 to 70 g/daily • Essential for wound healing, muscle and skin re-growth and repair. • Every meal and snack should contain good amounts of protein • Sources: Beans and legumes, eggs, lowfat milk products, fish, chicken, and lean cuts of meat
Nutrition Care Process (NCP) Nutrition Care Process. (n.d.). Retrieved Sep. 29, 2008, from www.adaevidencelibrary.com/file
Nutrition Care Process (NCP) • ADA considers quality nutrition care to follow these steps: • 1. Nutrition Assessment • BMI (overweight? obese?) • Health history • Interpret data • 2. Nutrition Diagnosis • Overweight, Obese, Morbid Obesity • Determine contributing factors to patients health/ obesity • 3. Nutrition Intervention • Formulate plan/goals for the bariatric patient • 4. Nutrition Monitoring and Evaluation • Monitor success of NCP
Goals for the RD • Obtain current lab values for the patient • Set short and long term goals for the patient • Discuss the pre- and post-operative dietary guidelines • Set-up support groups for the patient to stay actively involved in during their weight loss journey
Weighty Ethical Issues • 1. Should overweight or very obese individuals be encouraged or forced to gain more weight in order to be an acceptable candidate for weight loss surgery under governing medical and surgical guidelines? • 2. Should morbidly obese children and adolescents be able to be candidate’s for weight loss surgery?
Summary • The U.S. population has overweight and obese percentages at epidemic proportions. • When diet and exercise have proven to be a failure, obese individual’s can undergo bariatric surgery • Partially Malabsorptive/Primarily Restrictive: Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass • Restrictive: Laparoscopic Banding • Malabsorptive: Biliopancreatic Bypass
Summary Continued... • Vitamin and Mineral, and Macronutrient deficiencies can occur after bariatric surgery • Closely monitoring fluid and food intake, and being careful to not ingest too much in a sitting is imperative in the success of the surgery and to prevent dumping syndrome • The NCP is a vital tool for the R.D. to comprehensively and accurately develop plans and goals for the bariatric patient
In Review... • TRUE or FALSE: Biliopancreatic Diversion surgery is the most commonly used bariatric surgery used in the U.S. • TRUE or FALSE: Gastric Bypass (Roux-en-Y) has been shown to be the most effective procedure in weight reduction • TRUE or FALSE: Surgical patients are able to eat anything they would like once their surgery is complete.
Review... • What syndrome can occur if an individual eats too much sugar too quickly after surgery? • When should liquids be consumed?
