Prevalence of and risk factors for hypoglycemic symptoms after gastric bypass and sleeve gastrectomy.


ABSTRACT: To determine the prevalence of and risk factors for postprandial hypoglycemic symptoms among bariatric surgery patients.A questionnaire including the Edinburgh hypoglycemia scale was mailed to patients who underwent either Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) or vertical sleeve gastrectomy (VSG) at a single center. Based on the questionnaire, the patients were categorized as having high or low suspicion for post surgical, postprandial hypoglycemic symptoms.Of the 1119 patients with valid addresses, 40.2% (N?=?450) responded. Among the respondents, 34.2% had a high suspicion for symptoms of post bariatric surgery hypoglycemia. In multivariate analyses, in addition to female sex (P?=?0.001), RYGB (P?=?0.004), longer time since surgery (P?=?0.013), and lack of diabetes (P?=?0.040), the high suspicion group was more likely to report pre-operative symptoms of hypoglycemia (P?
