Obesity, anaesthesia, perioperative managementAbstract
Obesity is a growing risk factor that leads to perioperative complications increase. An appropriate preoperative evaluation, intraoperative management and monitoring during the postoperative period is essential to improve safety during the surgical procedure. These patients present criteria of difficult intubation and ventilation, respiratory complications, especially the Apnea / hypopnea sleep syndrome (OSA); metabolic syndrome; prothrombotic state and cardiovascular complications. The commented article described the physiopathological characteristics and current recommendations of the anesthetic management for these patients.
