Resumo
Introdução: A obesidade, considerada uma nova epidemia mundial, é caracterizada pelo excesso de tecido adiposo contribuindo para diversas doenças crónicas e aumento da mortalidade. A obesidade associada ao procedimento cirúrgico nesses doentes condiciona a fisioterapia respiratória essencial na recuperação da função pulmonar e na prevenção das complicações respiratórias. Objectivos: Verificar o efeito das intervenções fisioterapêuticas sobre a função pulmonar de doentes obesos submetidos a cirurgia bariátrica. Método: Uma revisão de literatura foi conduzida no período de Outubro/2008 a ju-nho/2009, com materiais disponíveis na base de dados Medline, Pubmed e Scielo, publicados nos últimos trinta anos. Conclusão: A fisioterapia respiratória realizada no período pré e pós-operatório é de fundamental importância nos indivíduos submetidos a cirurgia bariátrica, independente da técnica empregada, para prevenir complicações pulmonares inerentes ao processo cirúrgico e possibilitar a recuperação da função pulmonar.

Abstract
Introduction: Obesity, considered a new worldwide epidemic, is characterised by excess adipose tissue and contributes to a series of chronic diseases and increased mortality. Obesity associated to surgical procedure in these patients makes respiratory physiotherapy a must to recover lung function and prevent postoperative pulmonary complications. Aims: To assess the effects of respiratory physiotherapy on the lung function of obese patients undergoing weight loss surgery. Material and methods: We conducted a literature review October 2008-June 2009 of data which had been published over the last thirty years and which was available on the Medline, Pubmed ans Scielo databases. Conclusion: Pre- and postoperative respiratory physiotherapy is vital for patients undergoing weight loss surgery irrespective of technique used, as it can prevent pulmonary complications inherent in the surgical procedure and aid lung function recovery.
