Gastroplasty for Respiratory Insufficiency of Obesity
Annals of Surgery, 1981 Three patients with the obesity hypoventilation syndrome and one patient with the sleep apnea syndrome underwent gastroplasty for weight reduction. A tracheostomy was also performed in the patient with sleep apnea. The PaO2 rose from an average of 51 +/- 9 to 71 +/- 5 torr and the PaCO2 fell from an average of 51 +/- 21 to 41 +/- 6 torr within two to ...
