Evolution of Dyspnea After Bariatric Surgery in Patient With Obesity

Completed

• Conditions: Obesity
• Interventions: Other: Dyspnea evaluation

• Registration Number: NCT03623204
• Lead Sponsor: CHU de Reims

Brief Summary

Obesity, defined as a Body Mass Index greater than or equal to 30 kg/m2, represents a significant public health issue. Dyspnea is a very common and crippling symptom in obesity. About 80% of people with obesity experience dyspnea in daily living. Bariatric surgery has been demonstrated to be an excellent treatment for obesity by inducing significant weight loss. Nevertheless, changes in dyspnea in daily living after bariatric surgery and the links between variations in dyspnea and lung function tests after bariatric surgery have not been previously investigated.

Detailed Description

The objective of this study was to determine if bariatric surgery is associated with an improvement of dyspnea in daily living according to the mMRC scale in patients with obesity.
