Your Bariatric Surgery Can Help Decrease Your Risk of Atrial Fibrillation
There is more to bariatric surgery than what meets the eye - its results are not confined to a loss in pounds, but rather a host of positive effects on many other health conditions can ensue after these life changing procedures. A recent study expands on this notion by showing bariatric surgery can decrease a person’s risk of developing atrial fibrillation – an irregular heartbeat that can lead to blood clots, stroke, heart failure and other heart-related complications. Researchers at the University of Gothenburg in Sweden looked at 4,021 patients from 1987 to 2001 who were 37-60 years of age, with an average BMI of 36 and with no previous history of atrial fibrillation. They discovered a 29% lesser rate of developing atrial fibrillation in the bariatric surgery group vs the non bariatric surgery control group. Kristjan Karason, MD, PhD , a co author points out that this was the very first study looking at a relationship between bariatric surgery and a decreased development of atrial fibrillation. As the disease of obesity increases the risk of cardiovascular diseases including atrial fibrillation, the researchers hoped to discover a “preventive strategy” for "cardiovascular morbidity and mortality."
