Resumen

El incremento de la prevalencia de la obesidad mórbida en los países industrializados, junto a sus consecuencias sanitarias, está provocando un aumento sustancial de la actividad quirúrgica y una sobrecarga global de los servicios de salud.

Las enormes listas de espera que se están generando obligan al establecimiento de prioridades, basadas en el riesgo quirúrgico y en las posibilidades de mejorar con la cirugía, que permitan definir el orden de asignación de recursos. Por otro lado, el cirujano está obligado a practicar la técnica más adecuada a cada paciente, por vía abierta o laparoscópica, con un porcentaje mínimo de complicaciones.

Los índices de riesgo aplicables en la valoración del grado de prioridad deben basarse en la edad, el sexo, tipo de obesidad (androide o ginoide) y grado (índice de masa corporal), comorbilidad asociada, criterios psicológicos y sociolaborales. Asimismo, debe tenerse en cuenta la posibilidad de adaptación del paciente al grado de restricción y malabsorción producidos por la cirugía, así como la necesaria modificación de los hábitos de vida que contribuyan a su éxito.

Palabras clave:
Riesgo quirúrgico
Listas de espera
Priorización

The rise in the prevalence of morbid obesity in industrialized countries, as well as its impact on health, are leading to a substantial increase in surgical activity and an overload on health services.

Because of the extreme length of waiting lists caused by this situation, priorities need to be fixed, based on surgical risk and possible benefits, which would allow prioritization of resource allocation. Surgeons have a duty to perform the most appropriate technique in each patient, whether using the open or laparoscopic approach, with a minimum of complications.

The risk indexes to be applied when evaluating priority should be based on age, sex, type of obesity (android or gynecoid) and degree (body mass index), associated comorbidity, and psychological and socio-occupational criteria. Likewise, the patient’s possibilities of adapting to the degree of restriction and malabsorption produced by surgery, as well as the necessary modification of habits contributing to the success of the surgery, should be taken into account.
