Bariatric surgeries are effective long-term management for morbid obesity with its adverse sequelae. Anesthesia of bariatric surgeries poses unique challenges for the anesthesiologist in every step starting with vascular access till tracheal extubation. The usage of ultrasound in anesthesia is becoming more prevalent with a variety of benefits, especially in the obese population. Ultrasound is successfully used for obtaining vascular access, with more than 15 million catheters placed in the United States alone. Ultrasound can also be used to predict difficult intubation, as it can confirm the tracheal intubation and assess the gastric content to prevent pulmonary aspiration. Ultrasound is also used in the management of mechanically ventilated patients to monitor lung aeration and to identify respiratory complications during positive pressure ventilation. Moreover, intraoperative echocardiography helps to discover the pulmonary embolism and guides the fluid therapy. Finally, ultrasound can be used to perform neuraxial and fascial plane block with a less overall time of the procedures and minimal complications. The wide use of ultrasound in bariatric anesthesia reflects the learning curve of the anesthesiologists and their mounting efforts to provide safe anesthesia utilizing the updated technology. In this review, we highlight the role of ultrasonography in anesthesia of bariatric surgery and discuss the recent guidelines.
