The impact of impulsivity on weight loss after bariatric surgery: a systematic review.
CONCLUSION: Impulsivity may adversely affect postoperative outcomes after bariatric surgery. However, this may be specific to state impulsivity or impulsive action rather than trait impulsivity. Patients with a higher state impulsivity may benefit from closer follow-up post-bariatric surgery, as well as cognitive behavioral therapies targeting cognitive control over food.
LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level I, systematic review.
