Gastric Surgery Abroad - Lowering the Risks of Complications After Gastric Sleeve and Gastric Bypass Surgery Abroad

In a society where obesity is becoming a serious health risk for a large number of middle-age men and women, gastric surgery numbers are increasing every month in most European hospitals. Being one of the most successful and proven ways to drop the extra weight without sacrificing the quality of life, gastric surgery proves to be the most wanted solution for dropping extra body weight by most people.

 

Vilnius, Lithuania -- (SBWIRE) -- 01/13/2016 -- Moreover, patients are happy to go to another country to have the surgery performed, in order to pay significantly less for their gastric surgery abroad. The 3 most popular gastric surgeries are gastric bypass, gastric sleeve and gastric plication, the latter also being the least complicated of all 3.

As with all surgeries, there are risks with gastric surgeries as well, especially when going for a gastric surgery abroad. Except for gastric plication, where 3 days in the hospital would be enough before flying back home, for gastric sleeve and gastric bypass it is recommended to spend 4 days in the hospital after the surgery. Due to the specifics of the surgery and the stitching, it is only safe to fly after this set amount of time – with gastric surgeries, 3 or 4 days at the hospital after the surgery can make a difference, especially knowing that if any complications are going to occur, this is going to happen on the 3rd day or so after the surgery, in most cases.

This is why it is extremely important to not rush home right after the surgery – staying in the hospital for the recommended time can help avoid complications, so planning a day more of stay is the best choice for lowering the risk of any complications.

"I did want to fly back home as soon as possible after the surgery as I really felt good – but knowing that the surgeon recommends 4 days at the hospital, I did stay the recommended time and do not regret – I was being taken excellent care of, with all doctors and staff at Kardiolita Private Hospital being extremely helpful and caring" – says Helen Clarke from London, who has had a gastric sleeve surgery 2 months ago in the leading private hospital in Lithuania – Kardiolita.
