hello everyone, welcome to the channel. i am dr. rajkumar from life line hospitals in this segment, i am going to be speaking to you on who will benefit from bariatric surgery. and, what are its overall benefits to patients. if you want to know about yourself, your body, the art, the science and practice of medicine and surgery, please subscribe to this channel. today i am going to be speaking to you about who will
benefit from bariatric surgery. and what are its overall benficial good effects. now, if your bmi, which means your body mass index, which is a rough formulae for calculating your weight and height and getting a formula. weight in kilograms, divided by height in meters, the whole square gives you a bmi. there are a number of apps available, you can just calculate it very easily. if your bmi is more than 37.5,
then, you will benefit from bariatric surgery. if your bmi is 32.5 and if you have diabetes, or hyper-tension or cholesterol, or triglycerides, then too, you will benefit from bariatric surgery. why do i say this? there are two reasons why we do bariatric surgery. one is to simply bring down people's weight. pure obesity surgery. and, the other is to completely change there metabolic profile.
thus, a patient who is diabetic, hypertensive, obese high triglycerides, high cholesterol, will find that everything gets completely corrected, when he has a metabolic surgery. and that is why the term is getting shifted from bariatric surgery to metabolic surgery. a surgery, that completely corrects the functioning of the human body. many people have lot of myths about this disease. oh, will i get pregnant, if i have this operation? i believe doctor there are side effects. let me tell you, that
the risks of these operations are far outweighed by the benefits of these operations. patients who are infertile, are frequently sent to us they have there operations, loose there weight and gain a baby. many patients, who have these operations, almost all of them, if well chosen, loose their diabetes and can live a non-diabetic life. they loose their hypertension and, this lipedema that means your cholesterol and triglycerides are the three silent killers. they are the
triode of silent killers in today's modern world. and, they are called the ncd or noncommunicable diseases. its not that a cough or a cold or virus. but, it kills you! and, bariatric surgery seems to be a parousia or cure for patient's weight problems as well as for their sugar problems, and for their b.p. problems and for their cholesterol and triglycerides problems. more in further segments, about how we can lower the risk of cancer, and give so many more benefits to the body by bariatric surgery.
obviously, as i told you, earlier, to learn more pl do subscribe to us. we are waiting to teach and to tell you.
