MDT
- 45% Cases were reviewed
- Who else was ---- missing ??
- Bariatric Physicians !
- Psychiatric Support !
- WhatCANwe bring to the MDT ?
Investigations

- Investment in facilities
- SOBA recommends
Pre-Anaesthetic Assessment Clinic
- Most went to PAAC
- Only 68% didn’t see anaesthesia
- 19% assessments were inadequate
- ASA – no link to PAAC use
- ASA and OS-MRS
- SOBA recommends
Why not ?
- MDT
- PAAC
- NHS
- Private
- Cost
- Lack of insight
- SOBA recommends
Anaesthesia
- Only 3 % had problems
- Airway and low blood pressure
- Appropriate equipment
- Well monitored throughout
- nb NAP4 + SOBA
1 IHAS-Clinical Guidelines for the establishment of a bariatric service Oct 2012
Critical Care
- 28% elective use of L2/3 beds

After surgery
- 70% go to ward beds
- Tracking was poor
- Care was poor in 10%
- Experience
- Misdiagnosis
Anaesthesia Summary
- Safe
- High Standards seen
- As surgical field progresses
- Unit evolution is needed
SOBA Recommendations
- MDT onwards involvement
- High risk case review essential
- Post-Op care to be improved
- IHAS guidance
- Sensible experience
