Options & Outcomes
Obesity
• Obesity now leading cause of premature death & illness in Australia
• 67% of Australians are overweight or obese
• Australia 4th ‘fattest’ nation in OECD
• Obesity cost Australian society $21 billion in 2005
• Life expectancy 13 years shorter for 30 year old male with BMI >45
Obesity-Related Comorbidities
• Diabetes mellitus
• Arterial hypertension
• Ischaemic heart disease
• Heart failure
• Cardiomyopathy
• Obstructive sleep apnoea
• Gallstones
• Steatohepatitis
• Cirrhosis
• Hypercholesterolaemia
• Hypertriglyceridaemia
• Menstrual disorders
• Polycystic ovary syndrome
• Infertility
• Obstetric complications
• Stress incontinence
• Gastro-oesophageal reflux
• Stroke
• Cancer
• Arthritis
• Psychological disorders
Medical Therapy vs Surgery
• Medical therapy can achieve 10% excess weight loss in short-term
• <5% of medical patients maintain weight loss beyond 5 years
• Bariatric surgery results in average excess weight loss of 61%
• 89% reduction in 5-year mortality with surgery*
• 76% relative risk reduction in cancer observed after surgery*

health care use in morbidly obese patients. Ann Surg. 2004;240(3):416-423.

Follow-Up
• What are you eating?
– Should be solid food
– Liquid diet suggests band too tight
• When are you eating?
– Two (or three) meals per day is normal
– Most will not eat in morning
• How are you eating?
– Should be slowly
– Should take 20 min to eat small meal
Follow-Up
• Are you eating because you are hungry?
– Hunger = adjustment
– Loss of satiety consider erosion or leakage
• How often are you vomiting or having blockages?
– Can occur after eating too fast or certain foods (e.g. bread)
– Persistent vomiting if band too tight or slippage
• Do you regurgitate or reflux at night?
– Danger symptom
– Suggests band too tight or pouch dilatation
1. Eat three or less small meals per day
2. Do not eat anything between meals
3. Eat slowly and stop when no longer hungry
4. Focus on nutritious foods
5. Avoid calorie-containing liquids
6. Exercise for at least 30 minutes every day
7. Be active throughout the day
8. Always keep in contact

Weight Loss
Sleeve Gastrectomy
• Initially performed as part of duodenal switch (BPD-DS)
• Substantial weight loss often occurred with SG alone
• Used as part of staged approach in high risk patients
