Abstract
Objective: To understand body image disorders in patients undergoing bariatric surgery. Methods: Cross-sectional, descriptive, retrospective and prospective epidemiological study of patients undergoing bariatric surgery in a public hospital at Federal District, between the years 2018 and 2022. To obtain the data, Google for education form was used, consisting in the Body Image Measurement Scale, composed by 23 items, with a score ranging from 23 to 115 points. After collection, data analysis was performed using Microsoft Excel Software. Results: The present study involved the participation of 31 patients, the majority of whom were female. Using the Scale, an average of 75.8 points was obtained in the questions about body presentation, body ideal had an average of 80.63 and, finally, body reality had an average of 74.85 points. The overall average score regardless of question groups and years was around 58.26. Conclusion: From the study it was possible to statistically perceive a more negative Body Image, both in those who had the surgery longer ago and in those who had it more recently, which reinforces the importance of longitudinal multidisciplinary monitoring.
