Achievement of post-operative goals requires adaptation of physical, social, and psychological domains. The phenomenon of navigating, maintaining, and living with post-surgical changes is difficult to comprehend. Purpose: The purpose of this study was to explore the lived experience of the individual following gastric bypass surgery. Theoretical Framework: In order to fully describe the experience and increase awareness of the needs of the post-operative bariatric surgery patient, the researcher utilized a phenomenological perspective to guide the study. Research Methods: The hermeneutic phenomenological process described by van Manen (1990) served as the methodology. Results: Twelve individuals who had undergone Roux en Y gastric bypass surgery between 1998 and 2005 were interviewed. One overarching theme of paradox emerged. Four themes evolved through data analysis: surgery as renewed hope, finding balance, filling the void, and transformation of self-image. Participants described the post-surgical experience as a time of rapid transformation. Conclusions: Recommendations for future studies include the exploration of the link between obesity and addiction and the issue of transfer of addiction as a means of filling the void after surgery. The insights acquired through this study may serve to aid nurses in advocating for bariatric patients, promoting health, and in delivering competent nursing care across the continuum of obesity and bariatric surgery." ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Classification" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "RD540.5.L46 2008" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Publication Date" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "2008" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Genre" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Academic theses" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Holding Location" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Barry University Archives and Special Collections" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Resource Identifier" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "RD540.5.L46 2008_LePageCarolyn" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Language" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "English" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Permanent Link" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "http://sobekcmsrv.barrynet.barry.edu/AA00001837/00001" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Creator" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Le Page, Carolyn Therese" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Note" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Thesis (Ph.D.)--Barry University, 2008.", "Includes bibliographical references (leaves 131-140)." ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Physical Description" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "xiii, 150 leaves ; 28 cm" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Publisher" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Barry University" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Place of Publication" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Miami, Fla." ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Type" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Book" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Rights Management" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Copyright Carolyn Therese Le Page.
