Overview
Have we ever wondered despite of following the same kind of food habits and schedule, some people are obese while some are not. Biology is a major cause behind this difference. Our body converts the calories into energy, which the body uses for functioning but the excess calories are converted into fatty substances, which in turn trigger Obesity. Our body consists of a complex system that maintains a healthy level of weight but in some people this system doesn’t function properly.
Obesity Surgery
There are several types of Obesity or Bariatric surgeries; which surgery is best suitable for a particular patient can be suggested by an Obesity surgeon. Also, the any side effects and results vary from person to person. But every type of Obesity surgery can result in considerable amount of weight loss. The types of Obesity surgery performed in India are:
- Lap Band – This procedure is done by placing a band near the stomach that forms a pouch. The band is then connected to a device that is placed under the skin, mostly positioned near the middle of the patient’s chest. This band is tightened a few times to reach the appropriate amount of tightness perfect for the patient. The tightening process is a simple procedure and doesn’t require anaesthesia.
- Gastric Bypass – In this, Obesity surgeons use surgical staples with which a small pouch is formed around the top of the stomach, joining it to the small intestine; and this is done by bypassing the remnant part of the stomach. This restricts the amount of food intake that results in consumption of very few calories.
- Sleeve Gastrectomy – In this surgery, a section of the stomach is removed, reducing its size. So clearly, the patient feels full sooner and thus there is limited amount of food intake.
- Intra-gastric Balloon – This surgery involves inserting a soft balloon filled with air or salt water into the patient’s stomach. A thin tube is passed down through the patient’s throat for doing this. As the balloon is present in the patient’s stomach, so the patient doesn’t feel hungry often and thus food intake is limited. Being a temporary procedure, the balloon only stays in the stomach for a few months, till the patient gets habituated to this routine of food habits.
- Biliopancreatric Diversion – There are a few side effects of this method owing to which it is less commonly used. But it surely helps in considerable amount of weight loss. Like Gastric Bypass, a small pouch is created and connected to the small intestine. But the advantage of this procedure is that it limits the amount of calorie intake much more than the Gastric Bypass surgery.
- vBloc Therapy – This procedure takes control of the patient’s hunger sensations. In this minimally invasive surgery in which a pacemaker-like device is implanted that controls the amount of food consumption.
- AspireAssist – This is the recent addition in the list of Obesity surgeries and this allows the exclusion of the consumed food from the patient’s stomach by using a special implanted device. It is a minimally invasive surgery and can be reversed easily, if required.
Indian hospitals offer the most advanced type of medical assistance in India for Sudan patients. Before any Obesity surgery, the Sudanese patients are referred to an Obesity specialist or surgeon for guidance and assessment to check if the surgery is suitable for the patient.
This assessment involves checking:
- Physical health – blood tests, X-rays and related scans
- Diet and food habits
- Psychological health – this is done to know about expectations of the Sudan patients from the surgery; this is to assess if the patients will be able to cope up with the long-term modification in the lifestyle, required after the surgery
