Abstract

Over recent decades, the global prevalence of morbid obesity (BMI≥35 kg/m2) has risen steadily due to rapid economic development and improved living standards. With the increasing number of bariatric surgeries, anesthesiologists face significant challenges in perioperative management owing to altered physiological states, including elevated body fat percentage and respiratory dysfunction. This review aims to summarize the characteristics of perioperative anesthesia management in morbidly obese patients and propose future therapeutic strategies.
