The Sleeve surgery is a type of obesity treatment, in the form of reducing the size of the stomach. During the surgery, a large part of the stomach is removed. The removed section is about 75-80% of the stomach. At the end of the operation, the stomach has an appearance similar to a tube or a banana. By reducing the volume of the stomach, patients have a faster feeling of fullness after the surgery. The procedure is usually performed during a laparascopy. The patient is under general anesthesia.
What must be taken care of after surgery?
For many patients, openness to infection is a problem, but it is necessary to pay attention to this situation, especially in the first month of recovery. Since the stomach is too small compared to its normal size, it becomes difficult to receive all kinds of nutrients that the body needs. It should be ensured that vital nutrients such as proteins, carbohydrates and fats that the patient needs are consumed. It is important that after surgery, patients take the medications prescribed by the doctor carefully.
Healing Process
Antibiotics protect the patient from both hospital and external infections and minimize the risks that may occur during the healing process.In the first few weeks, the patient may only eat liquid or porridge-type foods. This is followed by a change to light food. The patient receives a detailed diet plan, which is discussed with the nutritionist.
