Why the study?
With the rise in morbid obesity and use of RYGB, physicians need to manage postoperative medical and nutritional disorders and complications.
What is the impact of Roux-En-Y Gastric Bypass on Vitamin D and Iron metabolism in morbidly obese individuals?
What is the impact of Roux-En-Y Gastric Bypass on Vitamin D and Iron metabolism in morbidly obese individuals?
Physicians must be prepared to predict and manage postoperative medical and nutritional disorders, including vitamin D and iron metabolism issues, following Roux-En-Y Gastric Bypass.
There has been a steady rise in the number of individuals who are morbidly obese. The divided RYGB is the most commonly performed bariatric surgical procedure in the world and is considered the gold standard. Physicians need to be aware of the important peri-operative complications that can occur after gastric bypass. In addition, gastrointestinal physicians are seeing patients who seek advice and care for symptoms that develop or persist after RYGB. Physicians should be able to predict and manage most postoperative medical and nutritional disorders related to RYGB and should be prepared to assess patients for potential referral for surgical intervention or revision
