This Study Day organised by the AfPP, will delve into all things bariatric, exploring weight loss surgery, laparoscopic surgery and open surgery on patients classified as obese. Delegates will gain an insight into this specialty and ease any fears or misconceptions they may have.
Helping delegates to prepare the operating theatre and staff looking after bariatric patients with moving and handling techniques, this comprehensive Study Day also examines the type and length of preparations that patients have to make prior to operations.
Topics include:
- Bariatric Procedures and Complications That Can Arise When Carrying Out Surgery
- Anaesthetic Complications and the Methods and Equipment That Can Be Used to Help
- Changes to the Airway During a Bariatric Pregnancy and Pain Relief During Labour
- A Patient’s Perspective
- Different Methods and the Legal Aspects Involved When Carrying Out Moving and Handling Within Theatres
