<strong>Bariatric</strong> <strong>Surgery</strong> is a surgical procedure performed on the stomach or intestines to treat<br />
patient with extreme obesity and help them lose weight. This is an elective procedure for<br />
patients who cannot lose weight by any other means and are prone to serious health<br />
problems related to obesity. These procedures can be invasive or minimally invasive and<br />
are performed through open and laparoscopic treatment.<br />
As per WHO, 39% of adult population (aged 18 years and above) were overweight in<br />
2014, and 13% were obese. Obesity has received considerable attention as a major<br />
health hazard as it leads to adverse metabolic effects such as High Blood Pressure,<br />
Diabetes, Coronary Heart Disease and Ischemic stroke.<br />

<strong>Bariatric</strong> <strong>Surgery</strong> procedures are widely accepted across the globe and due to a number<br />
of factors, such as increase in the prevalence of obesity, awareness among the obese<br />
patients, and increase in the number of surgeons trained in advance surgical techniques,<br />
this market is expected to grow at a higher rate during the forecast period.<br />
