Abstract [sv]

Bakgrund: Gastric bypass (GBP) är en viktminskningsoperation för patienter med ett BMI (Body Mass Index) >35. Operationen är en del av en viktminskningsprocess. Patienten bör själv ta ansvar i form av egenvård för att underhålla det nya levnadssättet för att främja hälsa. Syfte: Syftet med litteraturstudien är att sammanställa vetenskapligt underlag och beskriva patienters upplevelse av hälsa efter en gastric bypass operation. Metod: En deskriptiv design har använts i denna litteraturstudie som har baserats på totalt 10 vetenskapliga artiklar med inkludering av kvalitativ och kvantitativ ansats. Huvudresultat: Operationen hade bidragit till förändrade fysiska, psykiska och sociala upplevelser relaterat till hälsa. En tydlig reducering av vikten kunde utläsas och följdsjukdomar relaterat till fetma hade förbättrats. GBP operationen har bidragit till ökad livskvalitet, minskad social hämning och ökat intresse att delta i aktiviteter. Oönskade följder har rapporterats i form av överskottshud, gastrointestinala problem och osäkerhet. Slutsats: En GBP operation har visat sig vara en effektiv metod för patienters viktnedgång. Förändringar av det fysiska, psykiska och sociala upplevelser relaterat till hälsan har skett. Både positiva upplevelser och oönskade följder kan utläsas av resultatet från en GBP operation. Djupgående information och kunskap till patienter kan främja egenvård och bidra till återhämtning och följsamhet i det nya levnadssättet.

Abstract [en]

Background: Gastric bypass (GBP) is a weight loss surgery for patients with a BMI (Body Mass Index) >35. The surgery is part of the weight loss process. The patient should take responsibility in the form of self-care to maintain the lifestyle change to promote health. Aim: The aim of the literature study is to compile a scientific basis and describe the health experience of patients after a gastric bypass surgery. Method: In this literature study, a descriptive design has been used that has been based on a total of 10 scientific articles with the inclusion of a qualitative and quantitative approach. Main results: The operation had contributed to change of physical, mental and social experiences related to health. A clear weight reduction was observed and obesity comorbidity improved. The GBP surgery has contributed to improv the quality of life, reduced social inhibition and increased interest in participating in activities. Undesirable consequences in the form of excess skin, gastrointestinal problems and uncertainty have been reported. Conclusion: A GBP surgery has proven to be an effective method of weight loss for patients. There have been changes in the physical, mental and social experiences related to health. Both positive experiences and undesirable consequences can be deduced from the results of a GBP surgery. In-depth information and knowledge for patients can promote self-care and contribute to recovery and compliance in the new lifestyle.
