“…In general, reduction in BMI has been associated with improvement in QOL, but this is not well studied among ICU survivors. 35 Further work to clarify the relationship between BMI, QOL and intentional weight loss among ARDS survivors who are obese at the time of hospital admission may be indicated.…”

Background With improving short-term mortality in Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS), understanding and improving quality of life (QOL) outcomes in ARDS survivors is a clinical and research priority. We sought to identify variables associated with QOL, as measured by the EQ-5D health utility score, after ARDS using contemporary data science methods. Methods Analysis of prospectively acquired baseline variables and 6-month EQ-5D health utility scores for adults with ARDS enrolled in the ARDS Network Long-Term Outcome Study (ALTOS). Penalized regression identified predictors of health utility, with results validated using 10-fold cross-validation. Results Among 616 ARDS survivors, several predictors were associated with 6-month EQ-5D utility scores, including two lifestyle factors. Specifically, older age, female sex, Hispanic/Latino ethnicity, current smoking, and higher body mass index (BMI) were associated with lower EQ-5D utilities, while living at home without assistance at baseline and AIDS were associated with higher EQ-5D utilities in ARDS survivors. No acute illness variables were associated with EQ-5D utility. Conclusions Acute illness variables do not appear to be associated with post-discharge QOL among ARDS survivors. Functional independence and lifestyle factors, such as obesity and tobacco smoking, were associated with worse QOL. Future analyses of post-discharge health utility among ARDS survivors should incorporate measures of demographics and functional independence at baseline.

“…Diversos estudios con seguimientos a largo plazo reflejan mejoras estadís-ticamente significativas en la calidad de vida relacionada con la salud tras la cirugía bariátrica [8][9][10]19,20 .

“…Además, se produce una mejoría de sus comorbilidades médicas y psiquiátricas, de su calidad de vida relacionada con la salud (CVRS) y bienestar social del paciente. Por tanto, la CVRS se puede considerar un indicador más del éxito de la cirugía bariátrica [2][3][5][6][7][8][9][10] . Sin embargo, el efecto de la cirugía bariátrica sobre la calidad de vida no está del todo claro, habiendo multitud de covariables que pueden afectar a la calidad de vida de las personas con obesidad mórbida.…”

A review of the literature was performed to identify follow-up studies on pain and bariatric surgery (gastric band, gastric sleeve or R-en-Y gastric bypass) as intervention. The main objective of this study was to find information on the prevalence of chronic pain in patients undergoing any of the mentioned surgical techniques and the incidence of chronic postsurgical pain after bariatric surgery.16 studies were included for further analysis with over 2000 subjects. 2/3 of the information was on bypass surgery. "Short term" studies with data on pain within 3 months after surgery were randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing surgical techniques or analgesia. Pre-operative pain status had not been documented. However, peri-operative pain management was reported in detail. In 8 observational studies, pain data were available exceeding 3 months after surgery ("long term" studies). While pre-operative pain data were reported in the latter studies, in over half the anatomic location of the pain had not been specified. An accurate estimation of the incidence of chronic postsurgical pain after bariatric surgery was not possible based on the available data. The number of comparable studies was low and the anatomic location of the pain had not been specified. Data on pain between 1 week and 6 months after surgery are lacking. This period is important, since it contains the time point after which the measured pain can be defined as chronic.
