Introdução: Atualmente, a obesidade representa um problema de saúde pública, sendo a
cirurgia bariátrica o método mais eficaz para o tratamento da mesma. Como outros
procedimentos, também a cirurgia bariátrica possui complicações associadas, uma delas a
hipoglicemia. Os indivíduos que sofrem com esta patologia, apresentam uma redução da
qualidade de vida e um risco aumentado de eventos adversos.
Objetivos: A presente revisão visa estabelecer a ligação entre a hipoglicemia e a cirurgia
bariátrica. Assim, pretendemos responder a seguinte questão: A hipoglicemia é uma
complicação importante da cirurgia bariátrica? Este trabalho também tem como objetivo
analisar os possíveis tratamentos para esta patologia cada vez mais prevalente.
Metodologia: A metodologia utilizada para a realização desta dissertação consistiu na
pesquisa de artigos científicos, publicados entre janeiro de 2016 e setembro de 2021,
recorrendo à base de dados PubMed, usando a combinação das palavras-chave
“hypoglycemia” e “bariatric”. Após a decisão dos tópicos abordados nesta revisão, foram
selecionados os artigos com foco na relação entre a cirurgia bariátrica e a hipoglicemia e
aqueles que ajudaram no enquadramento dessas temáticas.
Conclusão: No momento atual, os dados existentes sobre a hipoglicemia que decorre como
consequência da cirurgia bariátrica são escassos e algo divergentes, revestindo-se de
extrema importância a definição de diretrizes para a mesma, de modo a existir uma maior
consciencialização, quer por parte dos utentes, quer por parte dos profissionais de saúde,
para o reconhecimento desta patologia. Concomitantemente, a realização de mais estudos
e investigações é fundamental para a descoberta de tratamentos mais inovadores e eficazes.
Introduction: Currently, obesity represents a public health problem, and bariatric surgery is the most effective method for it. Like other procedures, bariatric surgery also has associated complications, one of which is hypoglycemia. Individuals who suffer from this pathology have a reduced quality of life and an increased risk of adverse events. Objective: This review aims to establish the link between hypoglycemia and bariatric surgery. Thus, we intend to answer the following question: Is hypoglycemia a important complication of bariatric surgery? This work also aimed to analyze the possible treatments for this increasingly prevalent pathology. Methodology: The methodology used to carry out this dissertation consisted of a search for scientific articles, published between january 2016 and september 2021, resorting the PubMed database, using the combination of the keywords “hypoglycemia” and “bariatric”. After deciding on the topics that would be addressed in this review, articles focusing on the relationship between bariatric surgery and hypoglycemia and those that helped in their framing were selected. Conclusion: At the present time, existing data on hypoglycemia as a consequence of bariatric surgery are scarce and somewhat divergent, making it extremely important to define guidelines for it, so as to raise awareness, both among patients and health care providers, for the recognition of this pathology. At the same time, further studies are essential for the discovery of more innovative and effective treatments.
