Retrospective Analysis of Walking Distance and Use of Medication After Bariatric Surgery

Abstract

Aim: The objective of this study was to ascertain the drug use and walking distance of individuals after bariatric surgery. Material and Methods: The sample of the study consisted of 165 individuals. Individuals who underwent bariatric surgery were examined retrospectively after their operations. Data were collected using the Personal Information Form and the Walking Impairment Questionnaire. Results: The mean age of the individuals included in the study was 40.22±9.63. 52.1% of individuals were female. The body mass index of individuals was 39.63±4.69 before bariatric surgery and 23.94±2.57 in the first year follow-up after bariatric surgery. Forty percent of individuals did not have any chronic illnesses. Among individuals who had been on medication before surgery, 72.4% of those taking psychiatric medications, 57.5% of those taking diabetes medications, and 16% of those taking heart medications discontinued medications after their operations. 81.8% of individuals reported improved sleep quality compared to the period before the operation. The walking distance level of the individuals showed a significant increase in the first year after bariatric surgery compared to the period before the surgery. Conclusion: The study showed that bariatric surgery is an effective method for weight loss and reduction of comorbidities, as well as leading to a statistically significant reduction in chronic drug use and an increase in sleep quality and walking distance of individuals

Obezite Cerrahisi Sonrası İlaç Kullanımı ve Yürüme Mesafesi Retrospektif Analizi

Abstract

Amaç: Bu araştırma obezite cerrahisi sonrası bireylerin ilaç kullanımının ve yürüme mesafesinin belirlenmesi amacıyla gerçekleştirilmiştir. Gereç ve Yöntemler: Araştırmanın örneklemini 165 birey oluşturmuştur. Obezite cerrahisi olan bireylerin dosyaları retrospektif olarak cerrahi sonrası değerlendirilmiştir. Veriler Kişisel Bilgi Formu ve Yürüme Mesafesinin Azalması Ölçeği ile elde edilmiştir. Bulgular: Araştırma kapsamına alınan bireylerin yaş ortalaması 40.22±9.63’dır. Bireylerin %52.1’ kadındır. Bireylerin obezite cerrahisi öncesi vücut kütle indeksi 39.63±4.69, obezite cerrahisi sonrası 1.yıl kontrolünde ise 23.94±2.57’dır. Bireylerin %40’nın kronik hastalığı yoktur. Ameliyat öncesi ilaç kullanan bireylerden ise; psikiyatrik ilaç kullananların %72.4’ü, diyabet ilacı kullananların %57.5’i ve kalp ilacı kullananların %16’sı ameliyat sonrası ilaç kullanmayı bırakmıştır. Uyku kalitesi ameliyat öncesine göre daha iyi olan bireylerin oranı %81,8’ dir. Bireylerin 1.yıl sonrasında yürüme mesafesi düzeyinin obezite cerrahisi öncesine göre anlamlı düzeyde arttığı saptanmıştır. Sonuç: Obezite cerrahisinin kilo vermede ve komorbiditelerin azalmasında etkili bir yöntem olduğunun yanısıra, bireylerin kronik ilaç kullanımında azalma ve uyku kalitesinde, yürüme mesafesinde artma olduğu istatistiksel olarak anlamlı çıktığı saptanmıştır.
