Abstract :

Objective: To investigate the outcomes of pregnancy after bariatric surgery among Saudi women and to assess the potential impact on maternal and neonatal health.
Methods: This cross-sectional study will employ a quantitative research design to investigate the outcomes of pregnancy after bariatric surgery among Saudi women.
Results: The study included 280 participants. The most frequent weight among them was 51-65 kg (n= 123, 43.9%) followed by 66-75 kg (n= 66, 23.6%). The most frequent height among study participants was 1.51-1.60 m (n= 161, 57.5%) followed by 1.61-1.70 m (n= 92, 32.9%). The most frequent body mass index value among study participants was 18.5-24.9 kg/m2 (n= 125, 44.6%) followed by 25-29.9 kg/m2 (n= 85, 30.4%). The most frequent nationality among them was Saudi (n= 236, 84.3%) followed by non-Saudi (n= 44, 15.7%). The most frequent age among them was 37-45 years old (n= 140, 50%) followed by 28-36 years old (n= 73, 26.1 Obesity surgery to lose weight Most of the participants don’t do the surgery (n=232,82.9%), followed by those who do the surgery (48, 17.1%).
Conclusion: Study results showed that most of the study participants are normal according to their BMI. The most common nationality was Saudi. Most of them don’t do obesity surgery. In addition, most of the study participants had good social connections.
