  • Applicant: Gayan Perera
  • Project ID: 21-015

There is limited information and data about health outcomes after bariatric surgery for patients with mental health conditions compared to the general population in the UK. Using linked data, this study will investigate hospitalisation patterns and mortality associated with bariatric surgery in people with particular mental disorders compared to those reported from the SLaM catchment population.
