Summary

Comorbidities associated with severe obesity determine an important public health problem. Few methods are considered potentially effective for the treatment of severe obesity and the clinical relevance of bariatric surgery is growing, as well as the number of procedures performed. The insertion of the physiotherapist in the multiprofessional team responsible for performing the surgical procedure is essential from the preoperative screening and evaluation to the prevention and treatment of postoperative complications. Therefore, the physiopathological aspects involved with severe obesity, the technical aspects and risks of the surgical procedure, as well as the physiotherapeutic techniques that have scientific proof must be known by the physiotherapist responsible for the surgical follow-up of the patient. In this context, the use of non-invasive ventilation (NIV) in the postoperative period of bariatric surgery has ample therapeutic potential. The present research project aims to evaluate the immediate prophylactic use of NIV on the respiratory and functional recovery of the patients.
