What is a Gastric Bypass or "Stomach Bypass"?
Gastric Bypass or Stomach Bypass Surgery Details and Duration
Gastric bypass surgery is typically performed laparoscopically, reducing recovery time and complications. The operation usually lasts between 2 to 4 hours, with patients expected to stay in the hospital for up to 3 days for initial recovery.
What You Can Expect during Gastric Bypass Surgery:
Pre-Operative Preparation:
Includes dietary counseling and possibly losing some weight to reduce surgery risks.
Anesthesia:
General anesthesia is administered for comfort and safety during the surgery.
Surgical Procedure:
Involves creating a small stomach pouch and connecting it directly to the middle part of the small intestine, bypassing the rest.
Post-Operative Care:
Includes a phased diet starting from liquids to solids, monitoring for complications, and gradual increase in physical activity.
Long-Term Follow-Up:
Regular check-ups to monitor weight loss, nutritional status, and overall health.
