Abstract

Introduction: there is an increase in the number of women of childbearing age who undergoing bariatric surgery to become pregnant in the post operative period. The literature suggests that maternal risk of complications such as pre- eclampsia and gestational diabetes can be reduced after weight loss surgery when compared to women with the risk of obesity. Similarly prenatal complications such as prematurety and low weight birth can be reduced in pregnant women after bariatric surgery, but there are few studies that evaluate the nutritional status and the biochemical state of these patients and the fetus in Brazilian literature, and in this case, reviews of the different parameters involved are required to thereby provide more accurate information about this content. Objective: this study aims to evaluate nutritional and biochemical parameters of women who become pregnant after bariatric surgery, as well as the nutritional status of the newborn. Methodology: this is a retrospective study in which data from women undergoing bariatric surgery Roux-en Y type will be included, and who became pregnant after the surgical procedure performed at the Hospital of the Faculty of Medicine of Ribeirão Preto (HCFMRP - USP), from January 2000 to August 2013. Nutritional biochemical indicators will be evaluated. Statistical analysis will included in the Kolmogorov - Smirnov test to verify the normality. The Fisher exact test or chi- square test to assess the prevalence of comorbidities and other variables in the study periods will be considered significant when p<0.05. (AU)
