Objectives:To evaluate the iron nutritional status of individuals undergoing bariatric surgery at the Obesity Surgery Service (SICO), Hospital Santa Genoveva. Methods: We performed two types of studies. The first was a cross-sectional analysis of records of demographics and comorbidities of 198 patients treated at the first consultation with the surgeon from July 2008 to July 2009 and the second was prospective analysis of serum hemoglobin, iron, ferritin ,albumin and vitamin B12,and the dietary intake of iron and protein from 42 individuals in pre-and post-surgery six months after bariatric surgery type Fobi-Capella from January to July 2009.Results:Female gender was the most sought such treatment, with a mean age of 35.16 ± 10.82 years and average BMI of 40.9 ± 6.91 kg/m², hypertension appears very high and during follow-up period found no clinical or biochemical signs of iron deficiency anemia even without the use of iron supplements.Conclusions:The high number of top individuals, with an average age of 35 years, looking for the surgery as an option for treating obesity and high rates of individuals with hypertension do believe that public policies are necessary for greater health impact, aimed at prevention of this epidemic.The fact that individuals have had an intensive nutritional counseling during the pre-and postoperatively may have contributed to patients not anemic in the postoperative.application/pdfAcesso AbertoObesidadecomorbidadescirurgia bariátricaanemia ferroprivaObesitycomorbiditiesbariatric surgeryiron deficiency anemia1.
