Description

The Bariatric Surgery Registry is a population-based, observational, quality improvement study of persons with obesity who have had bariatric surgery. Its purpose is to gather and analyse information which is used to monitor the safety of bariatric surgery and enhance the quality of care received by persons undergoing bariatric surgery in Australia and New Zealand. Anyone who undergoes bariatric surgery in Australia or New Zealand is eligible for inclusion in the study.

The registry collects information on the operation performed, who performed the operation, where the operation occurred, complications from the surgery, weight at various time points, and diabetes status and management. The incidence of adverse events (unplanned hospital readmission, unplanned return to theatre, unplanned ICU admission) and deaths related to bariatric surgery are monitored for ninety days after surgery for all participants. Clinical outcomes for participants who are enrolled with their initial bariatric procedure are assessed annually to determine long term health effects of having bariatric surgery by following weight/body mass index (BMI) changes, differences in managing diabetes in patients identified as diabetic, the need for revision surgery, and vital status.
