Resumo
Introdução: A obesidade é uma condição crônica e multifatorial, relacionada a genética e comportamentos, além de diversas comorbidades. Ademais, está ligada à estigmatização social, o que afeta o tratamento. O diagnóstico é feito pelo IMC, e a obesidade atinge mais da metade da população brasileira. A cirurgia bariátrica mostrou-se eficaz na perda de peso e na melhora da saúde física e mental. Apesar disso, há riscos como deficiências nutricionais, complicações físicas e impactos psicológicos. A bariátrica melhora autoestima, depressão e ansiedade, mas pode aumentar o risco de alcoolismo e suicídio.
Objetivo: analisar, por meio de uma revisão sistemática, as repercussões na saúde mental de indivíduos submetidos à bariátrica.
Métodos: Trata-se de uma revisão sistemática com amostra final de 25 artigos, selecionados em junho de 2025, levantados junto a PubMed e a BVS, selecionados segundo os critérios do PRISMA.
Resultados: A maioria dos artigos foram estudos observacionais, de coorte e transversal. Os desfechos em saúde mental foram sintetizados de acordo com os principais achados, sendo: positivos, negativos ou neutros (sem significância estatística ou com resultados inconclusivos).
Conclusão: O estudo apresentou que a cirurgia bariátrica pode gerar tanto benefícios quanto prejuízos à saúde mental. Embora a cirurgia bariátrica represente importante ferramenta no tratamento da obesidade grave, seus impactos na saúde mental ainda apresentam resultados heterogêneos.
