Résumé
A common bariatric procedure known as gastric sleeve surgery can cause significant weight loss and co-morbid condition alleviation. However, patients could experience persistent problems such as gastrointestinal, musculoskeletal/neural, and psychiatric disorders after surgery. This study aims to identify the most prevalent chronic symptoms following sleeve gastrectomy among a sample of Saudi patients and the impact these symptoms have on patients' lives. Patients who underwent gastric sleeve surgery at the Ensan Clinic, a facility specializing in gastroenterology, were the subjects of this retrospective cohort analysis. The study population consisted of patients who underwent gastric sleeve surgery, showed up for follow-up after the procedure, and met the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The data collection sheet is divided into seven sections. Sociodemographic information was required in the first section, gastric sleeve surgery information in the second, vital signs in the third, lab results in the fourth, past medical history in the fifth, current treatments in the sixth, and postoperative complications and chronic symptoms in the seventh and final sections. In 117 patients, the study evaluated the effects of gastric sleeve surgery. Participants had an average age of 40.21 years, and 61.5% were female. Regarding persistent symptoms after surgery, a sizable percentage of patients mentioned digestive issues such as GERD (44.4%), dyspepsia (60.7%), vomiting (23.1%), nausea (39.3%), and abdominal distention (45.3%). A total of 34.2% of patients reported experiencing anxiety, compared to 11.1% who said they had depression or 2.6% who said they had social issues. A few patients reported experiencing neurological or musculoskeletal issues, including exhaustion (7.7%), faintness (5.1%), back or joint discomfort (7.7%), and shortness of breath (8.5%). After undergoing gastric sleeve surgery, a sizable proportion of patients complained of various chronic symptoms and nutritional inadequacies, primarily gastrointestinal problems and musculoskeletal/neurological issues. The study's findings show a connection between these symptoms and surgery.

BACKGROUND
BACKGROUND
A common bariatric procedure known as gastric sleeve surgery can cause significant weight loss and co-morbid condition alleviation. However, patients could experience persistent problems such as gastrointestinal, musculoskeletal/neural, and psychiatric disorders after surgery. This study aims to identify the most prevalent chronic symptoms following sleeve gastrectomy among a sample of Saudi patients and the impact these symptoms have on patients' lives.
METHODOLOGY
METHODS
Patients who underwent gastric sleeve surgery at the Ensan Clinic, a facility specializing in gastroenterology, were the subjects of this retrospective cohort analysis. The study population consisted of patients who underwent gastric sleeve surgery, showed up for follow-up after the procedure, and met the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The data collection sheet is divided into seven sections. Sociodemographic information was required in the first section, gastric sleeve surgery information in the second, vital signs in the third, lab results in the fourth, past medical history in the fifth, current treatments in the sixth, and postoperative complications and chronic symptoms in the seventh and final sections.
RESULTS
RESULTS
In 117 patients, the study evaluated the effects of gastric sleeve surgery. Participants had an average age of 40.21 years, and 61.5% were female. Regarding persistent symptoms after surgery, a sizable percentage of patients mentioned digestive issues such as GERD (44.4%), dyspepsia (60.7%), vomiting (23.1%), nausea (39.3%), and abdominal distention (45.3%). A total of 34.2% of patients reported experiencing anxiety, compared to 11.1% who said they had depression or 2.6% who said they had social issues. A few patients reported experiencing neurological or musculoskeletal issues, including exhaustion (7.7%), faintness (5.1%), back or joint discomfort (7.7%), and shortness of breath (8.5%).
CONCLUSION
CONCLUSIONS
After undergoing gastric sleeve surgery, a sizable proportion of patients complained of various chronic symptoms and nutritional inadequacies, primarily gastrointestinal problems and musculoskeletal/neurological issues. The study's findings show a connection between these symptoms and surgery.
