Providing health care to these patients, especially when surgery is required, can be extremely challenging owing to the specific needs in respect of logistics, facilities, and professional expertise. Appropriate care has to date often been unachievable and unaffordable outside of established bariatric centers, but such centers themselves usually have insufficient capacity and resources to cope with the demand among the general population. This book therefore provides a wealth of guidance and helpful tips and tricks on how to deal with obese patients within a general surgery setting. Importantly, it highlights the need for global rethinking on public health as regards resource allocation and patterns and standards of care, with the ultimate goal of improving outcomes through greater affordability. | 出版日期 | Book 2014 | 关键词 | General Surgery; Globesity; Medicine and Public Health; Metabolic Syndrome; Minimally Invasive Surgery; M | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-88-470-5382-3 | isbn_softcover | 978-88-470-5866-8 | isbn_ebook | 978-88-470-5382-3 | copyright | Springer-Verlag Italia 2014 |
