Q

PRINCIPLE OF ADJUSTIBLE GASTRIC BAND?

A
  • AN ADJUSTABLE SILICONE BAND IS PLACED AROUND THE UPPER STOMACH, A FEW CM BELOW THE BEGINNING OF THE STOMACH
  • THIS CREATES A 15 TO 30 mL GASTRIC POUCH

Q

GASTRIC BYPASS SURGERY PRINCIPLE?

A
  • A SMALL, VERTICALLY ORIANTED GASTIC POUCH IS CREATED, WHICH REMAINS ATTACHED TO THE ESOPHAGUS AT ONE END AND AT THE OTHER END IT IS CONNECTED TO A SMALL SECTION OF THE SMALL INTESTINE, THUS BYPASSING THE REMAINING STOMACH AND THE INITIAL LOOP OF THE SMALL INTESTINE
19
Q

SLEEVE GASTRECTOMY PRINCIPLE?

A
  • THE OPERATION INVOLVES DIVISION OF THE STOMACH VERTICALLY, WHICH REDUCES ITS SIZE BY 75%
  • THE PYLORIC VALVE (SPHINCTER, AT THE STOMACH EXIT) IS PRESERVED SUCH THAT THE STOMACH DIGESTION AND FUNCTION REMAIN UNALTERED
20
Q

SLEEVE GASTRECTOMY REDUCES STOMACH SIZE BY?

A

75%

21
Q

OF THE MAIN 3 BARIATRIC SURGICAL PROCEDURES, WHICH ONE IS THE MOST EFFECTIVE IN WEIGHT LOSS?

A

GASTRIC BYPASS

22
Q

% OF THEIR EXTRA WEIGHT PEOPLE LOSE WHICH EACH TYPE OF BARIATRIC SURGERY?

A
  • GASTRIC BYPASS: 60% OF EXTRA WEIGHT LOSS (80% IN MORBIDLY OBESE)
  • GASTRIC SLEEVE: 50%
  • GASTRICAL BAND: 40%
23
Q

OTHER BARIATRIC PROCEDURES (EXCEPT FOR THE SLEEVE, BAND AND BYPASS):

A
  • BILIOPANCREATIC DIVERSION (A LOT OF COMPLICATIONS LIKELY, MINIMAL ABSORPTION)
  • INSTRAGASTRIC BALLOON (TEMPORARY, UP TO 6 MONTHS)
  • PRIMARY OBESITY SURGERY ENDOLUMENA (USE OF SMALL TOOLS TO CREATE FOLDS IN THE LUMEN OF THE STOMACH TO MAKE IT SMALLER)
24
Q

A

BARIATRIC SURGERY IS MORE EFFECTIVE IN BOTH ASPECTS

BARIATRIC SURGERY

27

WHAT IS THE MOST POTENT TYPE OF BARIATRIC SURGERY TO REDUCE T2D?

A

GASTRIC BYPASS

28

A

UP TO 80%

29
Q

A

45-60%

30
Q

RESOLUTION OF T2D VS WEIGHT LOSS AFTER BARIATRIC SURGERY; WHAT HAPPENS FIRST?

A

T2D IS RESOLVED WITHIN A FEW DAYS AFTER SURGERY, PRIOR TO ANY WEIGHT LOSS HAPPENING

31
Q

HORMONAL CHANGES AFTER GASTRIC BYPASS:

A
  • GLUCAGON-LIKE-PROTEIN 1 (GLP-1) AND PEPTIDE YY (PYY) LEVELS ARE INCREASED
  • GHRELIN LEVELS DECREASE FOR A SHIRT PERIOD AFTER THE SURGERY (THEN RETURN TO NORMAL)
32
Q

APART FROM GASTRIC BYPASS SURGERY, WHICH OTHER PROCEDURE IS FOLLOWED BY TEMPORARY DECREASE IN GHRELIN LEVES?

A

GASTRIC BAND

33
Q

HOW DO GLP1 AND PYY AFFECT THE HYPOTHALAMUS?

A

THEY BOTH DECREASE AgRP/NPY NEURON ACTIVITY, THUS SUPPRESSING FOOD INTAKE

34
Q

WHAT IS GLP1 AND WHAT DOES IT DO?

A

IT IS AN INCRETIN SECRETED BY THE INTESTINE AND IT INCREASES INSULIN SECRETION FROM BETA CELLS OF THE PANCREAS

35
Q

  • FOLATE DEFICIENCY
  • B1 DEFICIENCY
  • VIT C DEFICIENCY
  • REDUCTION IN BONE MINERAL DENSITY (CALCIUM AND VIT D DEFICIENCY)
  • LOW LEVELS OF FAT SOLUBLE VITAMIN
40

41

42
Q

LOW LEVELS OF WHICH FAT SOLUBLE VITAMIN AFFECT MORE THAN 50% OF PATIENTS AFTER BARIATRIC SURGERY?

A

VITAMIN K

43
Q

WHICH PART OF THE SMALL INTESTINE IS VIT B1 PRIMARILY ABSORBED IN?

A

JEJENUM

44
Q

WHAT IS THE ESSENTIAL COMPONENT OF THE MANAGEMENT OF BARIATRIC PATIENTS AND WHY?

A

NUTRITIONAL SURVEILLANCE:

  • INCREASES ADHERENCE TO HEALTHY DIET AND ADEQUATE SUPPLEMENTATION
  • PREVENTS RISK OF WEIGHT REGAIN
  • FACILITATES DETECTION OF NUTRITIONAL DEFICIENCIES
