摘要

INTRODUCTION: Obesity has high prevalence worldwide, 25.1% of chileans suffers from it, with comorbilities associated withcardiovascular risk. The technique of Santoro II (TS) as bariatricsurgery, has demonstrated to be beneficial in the treatment ofthe obesity and comorbidities. OBJECTIVES: Determine variabilityof body mass index (BMI) and metabolic parameters withTS in Hernán Henríquez Aravena Hospital - Temuco (HHHA)and Clínica Alemana Temuco (CAT). HYPOTHESIS: Patientssubmitted to bariatric surgery with TS significantly decreasetheir body mass index (BMI), and their metabolic parameters.MATERIAL AND METHOD: Cross-sectional study, intentionalnon-probabilistic sampling, reviewing records of patients operatedwith TS between 2005 and 2010 in HHHA and CAT. Thevariables analyzed were BMI, blood sugar, arterial systolic pressure(PAS) and diastolic (PAD), and lipidic profile. The data wereanalyzed using Student’s t-test, X2 and Fisher’s test, when it wascorrespond. RESULTS: N=26. The 73 % were women, with anaverage age of 40.16 years (SD 12.07). A normalization of thevariables analyzed was observed 3 months after surgery, beingstatistically significant, with the exception of PAD. One year laterthe surgery, the difference of these values, with those presurgeries,was higher but the decrease of the PAD was not statisticallysignificant either. DISCUSSION: In obese patients, theTS is an effective procedure in the metabolic control with resultsthat maintain in a year of follow up. Our results are consistentaccording to the literature, but further research is needed to supportthat these are independent of the weight loss.
