A403 History of Abuse and Bariatric Surgery Outcomes

Abstract

Current studies demonstrate a link between morbid obesity and a history of physical or sexual abuse. There is limited data on the relationship between history of abuse and postoperative outcomes in patients undergoing bariatric surgery. Determine the association of history of sexual or physical abuse with 1) Postoperative weight loss success (PWLS) (defined as >50% excess weight loss) and 2) Self-reported postoperative satisfaction, in patients who underwent Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy (LSG) or Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass (RYGB).
