Abstract

The surgical management of morbid obesity is currently the most effective intervention for achieving sustainable weight loss and resolving associated metabolic comorbidities. This article presents a prospective clinical study conducted at the Department of Surgery of Andijan State Medical Institute. Using the standard research framework, the study evaluates the clinical efficacy of an optimized multidisciplinary approach encompassing Enhanced Recovery After Surgery protocols and prolonged psychosocial support. The research involved one hundred and twenty patients undergoing laparoscopic bariatric procedures. The outcomes demonstrate that patients managed under the comprehensive protocol experienced significantly shorter hospital stays, fewer early postoperative complications, and superior excess weight loss at the twenty-four-month follow-up mark. The study concludes that while advanced surgical techniques ensure immediate physical recovery, the integration of continuous psychological and social adaptation support is the definitive factor in preventing long-term weight relapse and ensuring overall metabolic success.
