Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
The EOSS associated with BMI is expected to assist in better stratification of patients who are candidates for bariatric surgery, benefiting those with greater needs. Through stratification by the EOSS, it is expected to identify the ideal time for surgery, contributing to the reduction of postoperative complications, such as infections, cardiovascular complications and metabolic problems. The adoption of the EOSS can help health professionals, especially physicians, make more solid decisions about the right time to perform bariatric surgery, in addition to facilitating more personalized pre- and postoperative planning with a more efficient allocation of health resources. This research can provide preliminary data that encourage broader and more in-depth studies on the use of the EOSS, contributing to its validation and adaptation to better meet the needs inherent to the Brazilian population—
