Chinese Journal of Digestive Surgery 2015;14(7):521-523
With the rapid development of China's economy,obesity and diabetes have become a serious social problem.Metabolic surgery has grown mature abroad,while it started relatively late in China.There is obvious lack of operative indications,mode and procedure,preventions of complications,perioperative management and follow-up in the early time.To standardize nationwide surgical treatment of diabetes,to make the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients with the best way,to reduce the incidence of postoperative complications,the domestic famous experts assembled by the Branch of Obesity and Diabetes Surgeons Committee of the Chinese Medical Doctor Association composed the Surgical Treatment Guidance of Obesity and Type 2 Diabetes in China (2014).Metabolic surgery rapidly be popularized across the country.The number of surgery is rising year by year,especially making further standardization of operative indications and modes.Many academic meetings are conveyed to promote the discipline to develop,and provide the communication platform for metabolic surgeons.The future development of metabolic surgery will be accompanied by technological progress,equipment updates,operation excellence and continuous improvement.
5.Standardization and promotion of surgical treatment for obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus
Chinese Journal of Digestive Surgery 2013;12(12):897-900
The curative effect of surgical treatment for obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus has been internationally recognized.In mainland China,the number of the minimally invasive gastric volume reduction surgery has been increased from 110 cases in 2008 to 2000 cases in 2012.While some of the patients suffered from poor curative effects or severe postoperative complications due to lack of unified standard treatment guidelines.Authoritative statistical agencies and the Chinese clinical database has not been formed till now,therefore the specification and promotion of Chinese surgical treatment standards for obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus is imperative.
