“…Despite clear evidence regarding smoking cessation and long-term health benefits, the benefits of preoperative smoking cessation in WLS patients are unclear (8,10,(65)(66)(67)(68)(69)(70). Weight gain associated with smoking cessation may increase surgical risks (71).…”

Criteria for patient selection and multidisciplinary evaluation and treatment of the weight loss surgery patient. Obes Res. 2005;13:234 -243. Objective: To provide evidence-based guidelines for patient selection and to recommend the medical and nutritional aspects of multidisciplinary care required to minimize perioperative and postoperative risks in patients with severe obesity who undergo weight loss surgery (WLS). Research Methods and Procedures: Members of the Multidisciplinary Care Task Group conducted searches of MEDLINE and PubMed for articles related to WLS in general and medical and nutritional care in particular. Pertinent abstracts and literature were reviewed for references. Multiple searches were carried out for various aspects of multidisciplinary care published between 1980 and 2004. A total of 3000 abstracts were identified; 242 were reviewed in detail. Results: We recommended multidisciplinary screening of WLS patients to ensure appropriate selection; preoperative assessment for cardiovascular, pulmonary, gastrointestinal, endocrine, and other obesity-related diseases associated with increased risk for complications or mortality; preoperative weight loss and cessation of smoking; perioperative prophylaxis for deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism (PE); preoperative and postoperative education and counseling by a registered dietitian; and a well-defined postsurgical diet progression. Discussion: Obesity-related diseases are often undiagnosed before WLS, putting patients at increased risk for complications and/or early mortality. Multidisciplinary assessment and care to minimize short-and long-term risks include: comprehensive medical screening; appropriate pre-, peri-, and postoperative preparation; collaboration with multiple patient care disciplines (e.g., anesthesiology, pulmonary medicine, cardiology, and psychology); and long-term nutrition education/counseling.

“…48 Relative to nonsmokers, current smokers are at increased risk for complications during and after surgery, 49 especially pulmonary complications, 50,51 and for slower postoperative wound healing. 52 It is possible that many patients who are scheduled for surgery are unaware of the negative impact of smoking on surgical recovery.…”

A semifluidized bed was proposed to allay bed plugging during the filtration of fines‐hydrocarbon suspensions. Mitigation of plugging was allowed by alternating semifluidization during capture with unconstrained fluidization for removal of deposits. Solids holdup conditions were established to prevent deposition in the fluidization section. The cyclic parameters were varied to allow efficient removal of deposits during washing. Analysis with a filtration model accounting for solids detachment in the fixed bed section revealed that the fluidization section favored growth of aggregate size entering the fixed bed. Analysis of the split ratios between fixed and fluidized bed heights revealed that the shallowest fluidization sections delayed deposition in the fixed bed. In cyclic operation, reversibility of the semifluidized bed was best recovered via gas injection during the washing stages. However, the filtration times in successive cycles shortened with increasing washing times but lengthened with increasing the washing superficial suspension velocity. © 2008 American Institute of Chemical Engineers AIChE J, 2008

“…Moreover, the time of surgery may be a unique opportunity for smoking cessation attempts to succeed (Moller & Villebro, 2005). There is evidence that interventions for smoking cessation, which include nicotine replacement therapy (NRT), increase for a short term the rate of smoking cessation and decrease postoperative morbidity.…”
