Design: A cohort study including patients undergoing bariatric surgery. Setting: One academic referral center. Exposures: Patients undergo Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy or Laparoscopic Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass . Surgical technique is standardized and consistent in the whole study group.

Main Outcomes and Measures: The main outcome is the change of QoL after bariatric surgery. It is assessed in three different time points: pre-surgery, first follow up (1 year after surgery) and second follow-up (10 years after surgery). The investigators use two licensed and standardized questionnaires: (Short Form Health Survey) and MA-QoLQII (Moorehead-Ardelt Quality of Life Questionnaire II).

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Quality of life measured as a Short Form Health Survey - 36 score.

    To assess the quality of life of included patients the investigators used licensed and standardized questionnaire, which is designed for medical purposes: SF-36 (Short Form Health Survey). It is scale with minimal value being 0 and maximal value being 100 scale. Higher score means better outcome.

    Measured: 10 years

  2. Quality of life measured as a Moorehead-Ardelt Quality of Life Questionnaire II score.

    To assess the quality of life of included patients the investigators used licensed and standardized questionnaire, which is designed for medical purposes: MA-QoLQII (Moorehead-Ardelt Quality of Life Questionnaire II). The MA-QoLQII questionnaire has six dimensions. The MA II questionnaire is used as a part of the Bariatric Analysis and Reporting Outcome System (BAROS) and assesses the patients subjective impression of quality of life in the areas of general self-esteem, physical activity, social contacts, satisfaction concerning work, pleasure related to sexuality and focus on eating behavior. Each item is scored from-0.5 to +0.5. The total score consists of the sum of the six dimensions with a range of -3 to +3. A total score of 1.1 to 2 is considered "good", above 2.1 is"very good".

    Measured: 10 years
