Q

Wu et al., 2016 - Bariatric Surgery vs Exercise

A
  • bariatric surgery results in significantly greater percentage loss of excessive fat deposits except for epicardial adipose tissue (EAT)
  • EAT but not paracardial adipose tissue (PAT) was relatively preserved despite weight reduction in both groups

Q

ASMBS, 2012 - Pre-Surgical PA

A
  • evidence of pre-surgical PA markers is poor but advocated
  • mild ex for 20mins/day on 3/4days/week before surgery
  • pre-surgery PA engagement may improve cardiorespiratory fitness, reduce risk of surgical complications, facilitate healing and enhance post-operative recovery

Q

ASMBS, 2012 - Post-Operative Exercise

A
  • exercise after surgery is imperative, and may be the most important factor that can achieve long-standing and successful weight loss
  • start walking from day 1
  • increase walking each day; add other aerobic activities as surgeon permits
  • start light weight training and sit ups as surgeon allows
  • consider using a PT to educate about exercise, improve motivation and ensure correct techniques
17
Q

Mechanick et al., 2009 - Post-Surgery PA

A
  • increase their PA to a minimum of 30 min per day as well as increase PA throughout the day as tolerated
18
Q

Peacock and Zizzi, 2012 - Post-Surgery PA

A
  • only 22% of patients in American college of surgeons bariatric surgery centre network accredited bariatric centres received post-surgery exercise counselling
19
Q

Effects of PA Following Bariatric Surgery

A
  • weight; loss vs regain
  • metabolic control (glucose, lipids)
  • functional capacity: VO2, PA, CVD risk
  • psychological changes: QoL, readiness to exercise
20
Q

Weight Loss

A
  • bariatric surgery induces weight loss but isn’t and infallible treatment
  • 10-30% of bariatric patients experience sub-optimal weight loss and long-term effectiveness is less clear
  • exercise may be an important adjunct therapy
21
Q

Coen et al., 2015 - Weight Loss

A
  • walking (2h/week over 6month period) didn’t impact RYGB surgery induced weight loss or fat mass
22
Q

Rothwell et al., 2015 - Weight Loss

A
  • excess weight loss was improved at 12months but not 36 post-op by attending semi-structures exercise education classes
23
Q

Chaston et al., 2007 - Weight Loss

A
  • loss of FFM accounted for 31.3% of weight loss with RYGB surgery
24
Q

Janssen et al., 2002 - Weight Loss

A
  • RE excellent way to maintain muscle mass
  • supervised ex reduced loss of FFM in patients undergoing 16 weeks of weight loss on low calorie diet
25
Q

Wing, 2002 - Weight Regain

A
  • 12-18 months after weight loss, 33-50% of initial weight loss may be regained
26
Q

National Weight Control Registry (NWCR), 2001 - Weight Regain

A
  • moderate intensity-ex critical for maintaining weight loss
  • addition of 275min/week in combination with a reduction in energy intake was necessary for maintenance of 10% weight loss in obese women
27
Q

Campos et al., 2010 - Metabolic Control

A
  • caloric restriction improves hepatic insulin sensitivity after RYGB surgery
28
Q

Dunn et al., 2012 - Metabolic Control

A
  • peripheral tissue insulin sensitivity 1 month after RYGB surgery and 11% weight loss didn’t change
29
Q

Olbers et al., 2006 - Metabolic Control

A
  • long-term improvements in peripheral tissue insulin sensitivity after bariatric surgery do occur after ~50% reduced whole body fat mass and a ~60% decrease in visceral adipose tissue after a year
30
Q

Camastra et al., 2011 - Metabolic Control

A
  • peripheral insulin sensitivity remains low compared with that in lean, metabolically healthy individuals
31
Q

Best et al., 1996 - Metabolic Control

A
  • exercise may be beneficial to improve peripheral tissue insulin sensitivity after surgery induced weight loss
32
Q

Coen et al., 2015 - Functional Capacity

A
  • 6 months walking improved fitness in obese patients without diabetes who underwent bariatric surgery
33
Q

Stegen et al., 2011 - Functional Capacity

A
  • 4 months strength/endurance programme improved cardio-respiratory fitness and physical function
34
Q

Huck, 2015 - Functional Capacity

A
  • Resistance training can improve cardiorespiratory fitness and muscle strength in patients who have undergone bariatric surgery
35
Q

Directions for Clinical Practice

A
  • implement pre-surgery diet and exercise programmes
  • post-surgery PA programme; begin day 1progressively increasing to CMO guidelines and beyond
  • introduce pedometers/trackers and characterise baseline activity, then increase week by week
  • upskill more practice HCPs involved in tier 3 and 4 provision using number of exercise in medicine initiatives
  • empower patient to exercise and lead to a change in behaviour for life
