Primary outcomePrimary: Serious Complications — 630 Participants
Summary
The rate of serious complications are relatively low in bariatric surgery today, but still 3-4 % will suffer from a serious complication. There are factors known before the surgery or during the operation that are likely to increase the risk for a serious complication. If the investigators are aware of these we can optimize the patients risk factors prior to the operation or at least increase the awareness of the increased risk in some patients given the presence of risk factors.
