Abstract:
Recently, the number of severe obesity in China has now ranked first in the world. The amount of metabolic and bariatric surgery in China is increasing year by year, and has made rapid development. As more and more new hospitals, surgical teams, and physicians join the field of metabolic and bariatric surgery, suboptimal operations and managements will inevitably accompany, causing problems and hidden dangers related to bariatric surgery. To a certain extent, this is in line with the law of development, but it does not mean that we can leave it alone and let it develop. In order to ensure the sustainable, healthy and orderly development of metabolic and bariatric surgery in China in the future, the standardized construction and quality improvement have become an urgent task. This paper reviews the current status of standardized construction of metabolic and bariatric surgery at home and abroad, the necessities and paths to quality improvement of standardized construction of metabolic and bariatric surgery in China, in order to put forward some thoughts and arouse extensive discussions for the development of the subject.
