Abstract

Obesity in pediatric patients is rising with nearly one third of children in the USA classified as overweight and up to 16–18% of the adolescent population obese with at least one comorbid condition. Consequently, bariatric procedures in this population have increased without consistent recommendations for follow-up and transition to adult providers. This review describes the known and potential long-term consequences of bariatric surgery in pediatric patients, reviews the current literature on transitions of care for adolescent patients with chronic illnesses. Additionally, this review summarizes recommendations from the literature for developing a standardized program for transitioning care for post-bariatric surgical patients and offers useful tools and guidelines for doing so.
