Luz, RN, MSN, CBN Nutrition: Dana Eiesland, RD, LDN Stacey A. Nelson, BS, RD, LDN Presented and Planned by:

  3. Obesity • Obesity is defined as having an excessive amount of body fat. • Doctors often use Body Mass Index to determine obesity BMI Weight status Below 18.5 Underweight 18.5 -24.9 Normal 25.0 -29.9 Overweight 30.0 and higher Obese 40.0 and higher Morbid obesity

  4. Obesity in the US • About one-third of U.S. adults (33.8%) are obese. (Center for Disease Control and Prevention) • During past 20 years there has been a dramatic increase in obesity in the United States

  5. Obesity results in many co-morbidities such as: sleep apnea joint disease hypertension stroke diabetes respiratory diseases World health organization estimated that being overweight and inactive accounts for ¼-1/3 of all cancers of the breast, colon, endometrium, kidney, and esophagus The Dangers of Obesity

  6. Obesity Attitudes in Health Care • self-report studies show that physicians, nurses, and other medical personnel view obese patients as: • non-compliant • lazy • dishonest • lacking in self-control • unsuccessful • sloppy

  7. Surgical Weight Management Lisa C. Luz, RN, MSN, CBN

  8. Surgical Weight Management • Under the direction of expert bariatric surgeons: • Julie Kim, MD, FACS • Associates from TMC: • Dr. Abeles, Dr. Shah, Dr. Tarnoff, fellows • Multidisciplinary Team • Dietitian • Psychologist • Program Coordinator/Nurse • Insurance Specialist

  9. Who is a Surgical Candidate? • Meets National Institutes of Health Criteria: • BMI > 40 • >35 with significant obesity-related co-morbidities • 18 years or older • No endocrine cause of obesity • Stable psychological condition • Absence of drug or alcohol problem/Non-Smoking • Understands surgery and risks • Acceptable operative risks (patient and procedure) • Consensus after bariatric team evaluation: • psychologist, dietitian, surgeon • Dedicated to lifestyle change and follow-up

  10. The Surgical Process • Information Session • Preliminary Application • Health History Questionnaire • Immersion Day • Psychologist/Behavioral Assessment • Nutritional Counseling • Medical Clearance from PCP or Specialist • Medical Testing: Labs, X-ray, EKG • Consultation with Surgeon • Support Groups • Insurance Approval

  11. The Surgical Process • Mental Health Evaluation • Preparing for new Life • Identify the support needed to be successful • Individual Nutrition Appointments • Minimum 2 visits (for insurance approval) • Individual Diet Planning and Education • Medical Testing • Labs, Chest X-ray, EKG and any testing TBD by team

  12. The Surgical Process • Surgical Consultation • One on One consultation to answer all questions and individual concerns • Medical Clearance • By PCP, or specialist • Support Groups~ Make the Difference • This process takes approximately 3-6 months!

  13. Bariatric SurgeryEric Starble RN

  14. Review of the Digestive System • Esophagus • Stomach • Small Intestine(Duodenum, Jejunum, Ileum) • Large Intestine

  15. Bariatric Surgery Today Three Types of Most Commonly Performed Bariatric Surgery Procedures Malabsorptive Restrictive Combination Biliopancreatic Diversion with Duodenal Switch Adjustable Band Gastroplasty Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass

  16. Restrictive Surgery • Relatively easy surgical procedure • Less dietary deficiencies • Less weight loss • More late failures due to dilation • Less effective with sweet eaters • Significant dietary compliance Adjustable Band Gastroplasty

  17. Malabsorptive Surgery • Greater sustained weight loss with less dietary compliance • Increased risk of malnutrition and vitamin deficiency • Constant follow–up to monitor increased risk • Intermittent diarrhea Biliopancreatic Diversion with Duodenal Switch

  18. Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy • Restrictive procedure • Purpose: Suppression of hunger hormones • No intestinal connection • Considered a standard procedure by national society (ASMBS) • Newer procedure • Covered by many but not all insurance companies

  19. Mechanics of Sleeve Gastrectomy • Permanent removal of the lateral portion of the stomach • Creates a long, narrow, "banana" shaped stomach or "sleeve" • Reduces the capacity of the stomach by 2/3rds • No foreign body or needle sticks required • The body's natural pyloric and gastroesophageal valve act to restrict the passage of food with removal of many of the hunger hormones

  20. Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy

  21. Roux-en-Y Gastric-Bypass • Long-term sustained weight loss • No protein-calorie malabsorption • Little vitamin or mineral deficiencies • Technically difficult procedure Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass

  22. The Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass • A small, 15 to 20cc, pouch is created at the top of the stomach. • The small bowel is divided. The biliopancreatic limb is reattached to the small bowel. • The other end is connected to the pouch, creating the Roux limb. Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass

  23. Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass • Small pouch releases food slowly, causing a sensation of fullness with very little food • Biliopancreatic limb preserves the action of the digestive tract

  24. Open Increased post op pain, longer hospitalizations Increased incidence of wound complications - infections, hernias, seromas Return to work in 4-8 weeks Laparoscopic Less post op pain, early mobility Wound complications are significantly reduced 2-3 day hospital stay Return to work in 1-3 weeks Open and Laparoscopic Technique in Bariatric Surgery

  25. What Happens in the OR?

  26. Bariatric Surgery:Beyond the Surgery • Bariatric Surgery will NOT work alone • Intricate parts of your weight loss success: Commitment to: • Diet • Exercise • Support groups

  27. Resolution of Comorbidities Schauer, et al, Ann Surg 2000 Oct;232(4):515-29

  28. Possible Complications • May Lead to Short or Long-term Hospitalization and/or Re-operation • Infection, bleeding or leaking at suture/staple lines • Blockage of the intestines or pouch • Dehydration • Blood clots in legs or lungs • Vitamin and mineral deficiency • Protein malnutrition • Incisional hernia • Death

  29. Possible Side Effects • Nausea and vomiting • Gas and bloating • Dumping syndrome • Lactose intolerance • Temporary hair thinning • Depression and psychological distress • Changes in bowel habits such as diarrhea, constipation, gas and/or foul smelling stool

  30. Post-Operative Summary On Average, Gastric-bypass Patients… • Lose 65-80% of their excess body weight, the majority of it in the first 18 to 24 months after surgery. • May have rapid improvements in the morbid side effects of their obesity, such as type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, sleep apnea, and high cholesterol levels.
