FOR ASIANS

BMI (kg per m2)

Normal < 25.0 < 23.0

Overweight > 25.0 > 23.0

Obese > 30.0 > 27.5

Severe Obesity > 35.0 > 32.5

Morbid Obesity > 40.0 > 37.5


~77 % Excess weight loss ~ 85 % resolution of OSA ~ 52 to 92 % resolution of HTN ~ 73 – 83% resolution of type 2 diabetes > 80 % resolution of Metabolic Syndrome

Bariatric Surgery: Multiple Health Benefits



Assess indications / contraindications Multi-disciplinary evaluation Optimize & manage comorbidities Educate,set realistic expectations

Optimal Patient Selection


NIH Consensus Conference Criteria(1991)

BMI > 40 or > 35 kg/m2 with co-morbidity

Failure of non-operative Rx

Absence of contraindications

Well informed, compliant, motivated patient


Surgery for Adolescents & Elderly

( Age < 18 / > 65 yrs )

Surgery for BMI < 35

Surgery for Metabolic indications only

Controversies


Adolescent bariatric surgery (<18 yrs) has proven

effective but should be performed only in a

specialty centre

Selection criteria similar

to adults

? Surgery for Adolescents


Panel of experts on Adolescent Obesity BMI > 40 with comorbidities Skeletal / physiologic maturity Failure of > 6 mths of structured wt loss attempts Commitment, ability to follow post-op instructions Decision making capacity Commitment to avoid pregnancy x 1 year

Patients > 65 yrs at risk of death (early & late) after WLS

Should have life expectancy > 5 yrs

Should be evaluated & treated in

? Surgery for Age > 65


“Individuals with BMI 30-35 kg/m2 may benefit from Lap. bariatric surgery given
