Abstract

Objective: This study was conducted to investigate the effect of bariatric surgery on quality of life.
Methods: This study used a quantitative, descriptive, cross-sectional and prospective study design. This study was conducted between 1 January 2016 and 1 June 2017 at an university hospital in Turkey. The questionnaire form that developed by the researchers and the Short Form- 36 quality of life scale before bariatric surgery were applied to the individuals. Participants were evaluated with the same scale at 1 month, 3 months and 1 year after bariatric surgery.
Results: The mean age of the individuals was 37.37 ± 9.18.While the mean of body mass index was 48.18±5.8 kg/m2 before bariatric surgery, it decreased to 27.18±3.21 kg/m2 in one year after bariatric surgery. Simple linear regression analysis was given between the subscale of SF-36 and the descriptive characteristics of the participants according to the follow-up times and there was a moderate positive relationship between preoperative physical health and gender (β = 0.450, p <0.05). In the lineer regression analyses, a statistically significant relationship was found between the body mass index in the 3rd month and the quality of life before bariatric surgery (β=1.446, p<0.05), between pre – body mass index and quality of life in post – bariatric surgery in 1st month (β=1,474, p<0.05), between body mass index in post – bariatric surgery in 1st month and quality of life in post – bariatric surgery in 1st month (β =2.173, p<0.05), between body mass index in post – bariatric surgery in 3rd month and quality of life in post – bariatric surgery in 1st year (β =-0.955, p<0.05).
Conclusion: It is obvious that the nurse's counseling role is very important in the long-term follow-up of patients, including improving the quality of life. Within 1 year, bariatric surgery found a positive effect on quality of life as a result of weight loss.
