ABSTRACT

The purpose of this study was to estimate the prevalence of hazardous drinking in the four years after bariatric surgery and investigate whether there are differences between those undergoing Roux-en-Y gastric bypass and sleeve gastrectomy. Participants (N = 564) who underwent bariatric surgery between 2014 and 2017 completed a survey regarding post-surgical alcohol use. The rate of alcohol use following bariatric surgery was significantly higher among those between 1- and 4-years post-surgery compared to those less than 1-year post-surgery. Of those who were consuming alcohol at the time of participation, 16.1% had scores indicative of hazardous drinking. The rate of hazardous drinking among those 3-4 years post-surgery was greater than those less than 1-year post-surgery with 33.3% of patients engaging in hazardous drinking at 3-4 years post-surgery. Patients undergoing sleeve gastrectomy had similar rates of hazardous drinking as RYGB (16.3% vs. 15.7%). Thus, findings showed that rates of hazardous drinking were higher among those further removed from bariatric surgery and patients undergoing sleeve gastrectomy appeared to have similar rates of hazardous drinking as those who underwent RYGB. Results suggest a need for monitoring of alcohol use for all patients pursuing bariatric surgery, regardless of surgery type.

摘要

本研究的目的是估计减肥手术后四年危险饮酒的流行率，并调查接受 Roux-en-Y 胃旁路术和袖状胃切除术的患者之间是否存在差异。2014 年至 2017 年期间接受减肥手术的参与者 (N = 564) 完成了一项关于术后酒精使用的调查。与术后不到 1 年的患者相比，减肥手术后 1 至 4 年的患者饮酒率明显更高。在参与时饮酒的人中，有 16.1% 的人有饮酒危险的分数。术后 3-4 年的危险饮酒率高于术后不到 1 年的 33 岁。3% 的患者在术后 3-4 年从事危险饮酒。接受袖状胃切除术的患者危险饮酒率与 RYGB 相似（16.3% 对 15.7%）。因此，研究结果表明，在进一步从减肥手术中移除的患者中，危险饮酒的发生率更高，并且接受袖状胃切除术的患者的危险饮酒发生率似乎与接受 RYGB 的患者相似。结果表明，无论手术类型如何，都需要监测所有进行减肥手术的患者的酒精使用情况。研究结果表明，在进一步从减肥手术中移除的患者中，危险饮酒的发生率更高，接受袖状胃切除术的患者的危险饮酒发生率似乎与接受 RYGB 的患者相似。结果表明，无论手术类型如何，都需要监测所有进行减肥手术的患者的酒精使用情况。研究结果表明，在进一步从减肥手术中移除的患者中，危险饮酒的发生率更高，接受袖状胃切除术的患者的危险饮酒发生率似乎与接受 RYGB 的患者相似。结果表明，无论手术类型如何，都需要监测所有进行减肥手术的患者的酒精使用情况。
