Abstract

BACKGROUND. Identifying complications in bariatric surgery is complex, so it is necessary to define clinical criteria for its detection and early treatment. In this study we analyzed in a group of patients changes in heart rate in the first hours after bariatric surgery with the intention of predicting complications. MATERIALS AND METHODS. Prospective, observational and single-center study that includes patients undergoing bariatric surgery. Heart rate and other preoperative clinical parameters were reported and in the first 6-10 hours, 24 and 48 hours after bariatric surgery, as well as complications during these periods of time. RESULTS. 308 patients; 91.5% women, mean age and BMI of 39.4 years and 40.3 kg / m2, 3.5% of patients presented complications in the first 48 hours after bariatric surgery with heart rates greater than 100 bpm (100.9 ± 20.8 bpm vs. baseline 76.1 ± 16 bpm; p <0.001). The increase in heart rate in the early postoperative state was the only predictive sign of complications in the first 24-48 hours (OR, 1.1; 95% 1.05-1.16; p = 0.001). CONCLUSION. Patients who develop complications in the first 48 hours after bariatric surgery, have elevated heart rate, especially those with major complications
