Preamble This dcument is intended fr nn-hspital medical/surgical facilities t ensure that best practices are incrprated int facility plicies and prcedures fr the purpse f a bariatric surgery prgram acceptable t and apprved by the Cllege f Physicians and Surgens f BC. Laparscpic adjustable gastric banding (LAGB) is the nly qualifying bariatric prcedure apprved fr restricted Class 1 nnhspital facilities as specified by the Cllege. This dcument is reviewed annually and revised peridically. Infrmatin in this dcument is cnsistent with, r exceeds, hspital practice and recmmendatins frm prvincial health authrities, regulatry clleges, the American Cllege f Surgens Bariatric Surgery Center Netwrk Accreditatin Prgram, the Canadian Anesthesilgists Sciety, American Institute f Architecture (AIA), Operating Rm Nurses Assciatin f Canada and the Canadian Standards Assciatin. Cllege s Psitin The Cllege recgnizes the need fr access t bariatric surgery (i.e. LAGB) and that high quality surgical care requires dcumentatin with reliable measurements f utcmes. Laparscpic adjustable gastric banding must nly be perfrmed in nn-hspital facilities apprved and accredited by the Cllege f Physicians and Surgens f BC, and nly in facilities where the necessary persnnel, physical resurces, clinical standards, surgen credentialing standards, data reprting standards and quality assurance prgram are in place. The purpse f this standard is t allw qualified physicians and ther qualified regulated health-care prfessinals t administer a bariatric prgram in its entirety in the nn-hspital medical/surgical facility setting and t prvide patients with the benefits f the laparscpic adjustable gastric banding prcedure while minimizing the assciated risks. The Cllege s guidance f nn-hspital facilities is t ensure the safety, quality, and cnsistency f patient care and is nt meant t replace the prfessinal judgment f physicians and ther health-care prfessinals but rather incrprate current evidence-based r cnsensus-based clinical infrmatin int a framewrk fr reasnable and acceptable patient care that prmtes the best pssible patient utcmes. The decisin t recmmend surgery fr bese patients requires multidisciplinary input t evaluate the indicatins fr peratin and t define and manage cmrbidities. Facilities must assure cmmitment, rganizatin, leadership, persnnel and physical surces t prvide ptimal care. Physicians, ther regulated health-care prfessinals and supprt persnnel, must demnstrate the requisite training, skills, and experience t administer a cmprehensive bariatric prgram. Nn-hspital surgical facilities apprved t perfrm LAGB are required t have a designated inpatient hspital t which patients can be transferred if the need arises. Facilities must be lcated within a 10- minute drive f a hspital in case f emergency transfer.

APPENDICES Laparscpic Adjustable Gastric Banding Standard 20
Appendix A Specific prtcls have been develped by surgens experienced in perating n mrbidly bese patients, alng with anesthetists t ensure patient safety. These prtcls are utlined belw and these are the prtcls that we fllw. i. Sleep apnea All patients wuld be screened fr sleep apnea and thse with a STOP-Bang scre f 3 wuld 1, 2, 6 be sent fr a sleep apnea study. If a patient has sleep apnea (including thse with mderate t severe sleep apnea), s/he is instructed t bring their cntinuus psitive airway pressure (CPAP) machine with them t the facility fr use after the prcedure. Additinal measures t ensure patient safety include: minimizing anesthesia time (nte: LAGB usually takes less than ne hur) using nn-narctics t cntrl pain pst-peratively extubating when the patient is fully awake and in a semi-upright psitin In utpatient facilities fllwing this prtcl, cmplicatins resulting frm sleep apnea have nt ccurred, nt even in thse patients with mderate t severe sleep apnea and are super bese (BMI 50). 2, 3, 4 The study by Watkins et al. invlved 2,411 patients and the study by Mntgmery et al. invlved 320 super-bese patients. ii. Preventing nausea and vmiting and minimizing pst-perative pain t allw rapid ambulatin T minimize pst-perative nausea and vmiting, a scplamine patch is applied just prir t surgery and during surgery anti-nausea medicatins are administered intravenusly. T minimize pain pst-peratively, a nn-narctic is used during and pst-surgery (if needed). Laparscpic Adjustable Gastric Banding Standard 21
iii. iv. Preventing deep vein thrmbsis (DVT) and pulmnary emblism (PE) The fllwing steps are taken t prevent DVTs r PEs: requiring patients t stp estrgen-cntaining medicatins ne mnth befre surgery administering 4,000 U f lw mlecular heparin subcutaneusly ne hur prir t anesthesia inductin placing pneumatic cmpressin devices n the lwer extremities f the patients during surgery allwing fr rapid ambulatin pst-surgery by minimizing pst-perative nausea, vmiting and pain thrugh the administratin f apprpriate medicatins, as mentined earlier These measures have been shwn t greatly reduce risk. 2, 3 Anesthesia management Shrt-acting anesthetics are used and extubatin ccurs nce the patient can lift his/her head, respnds t cmmands and has apprpriate vital capacity. Fllwing extubatin, the patient is maintained in a 45-degree heads-up psitin. This imprves the expiratry reserve vlume and the functinal residual capacity. 5 By fllwing these guidelines, patients can typically becme mbile and leave the clinic as early as tw hurs after the prcedure. 2, 4 v. Patient supprt pst-prcedure All patients must be accmpanied by an adult cmpanin fr the first 24 hurs after the prcedure. If an adult cmpanin is nt available, the surgen must arrange fr a nurse t stay with the patient fr the first 24 hurs. Out-f-twn patients are asked t stay clse t the clinic fr tw t three days pstprcedure and must be seen by either the surgen r a nurse at the clinic befre they travel hme. All patients are called the fllwing day and their first appintment is bked within fur t six weeks. Patients are prvided with a telephne number s they can reach the surgen 24 hurs per day, seven days a week. Laparscpic Adjustable Gastric Banding Standard 22

Appendix D Design guidelines fr facilities with bariatric patients The design f health-care facilities has a direct impact n bth wrker safety and the quality f patient care. With an increasing number f bariatric patients (patients 100 lbs r mre ver their ideal bdy weight r having a Bdy Mass Index f 40 r mre), designing r re-designing facilities is an emerging tpic. The fllwing guidelines are sme basic numbers based n research by the American Institute f Architecture Academy fr Health. It is imprtant t nte when applying these numbers int a design that there are many ther cnsideratins that need t be taken int accunt, such as: a descriptin f the patient ppulatin physical and mental capacities, medical cnditins; the types f prcedures being perfrmed and what equipment is required hw and where patients are transprted (patient flw) dimensins and strage f equipment Crridr widths In rder t accmmdate a patient with a bariatric walker and allw passage fr ther ft traffic, a minimum f 5 ft (60 r 1,520 mm) is required fr the width f a crridr. Laparscpic Adjustable Gastric Banding Standard 27
Drway widths T accmmdate bariatric wheelchairs 45 (1,140 mm) drway penings are required. Where the passage f bariatric stretchers is needed, drways shuld be a minimum f 52 (1,320 mm). Rm size In rder t accmmdate the larger equipment needed fr bariatric patients, the design shall prvide a minimum f 80 ft 2 (7.43 m 2 ) fr each patient bed, and fr clearance f at least 5 ft (60 r 1,520 mm) between patient beds and 4 ft (48 r 1,220 mm) at the ft f the bed. Laparscpic Adjustable Gastric Banding Standard 28
Tilet rms Prvide flr-munted tilets with a drp weight rating f 700 lbs (t accmmdate an impact factr f 1.4 fr a 500 lb patient) and a clearance f 5 ft (60 r 1,520 mm). Allw fr staff assistance n tw sides f the tilet r shwer. Prvide wall-munted sinks with a rating f 300 lbs (flr-munted sinks interfere with wheelchairs). Opt fr pen shwers with a flr drain t allw fr easier staff assistance and prvide wall-munted grab bars. Ensure any wall with a wall-munted fixture is re-enfrced t meet r exceed the rating.
