Abstract
Objective: To evaluate changes in the inflammatory profile of adults with severe obesity (grades II and III) undergoing treatment with a hypocaloric diet during hospital admission.
Method: A retrospective cohort study with a descriptive approach, using electronic medical records of patients with grade II and III obesity admitted between 2016 and 2022 in a hospital specialized in obesity treatment.
Results: There was a predominance of female patients, and most patients displayed sedentary behavior. The comparison between admission and discharge after 3 or 6 months revealed that CRP, ferritin, weight, and body fat percentage showed significant reductions following hospitalization (p<0.05).
Conclusions: Patients hospitalized for multidisciplinary obesity treatment showed significant reductions in inflammatory markers, body weight, and adiposity. CRP and ferritin levels decreased similarly in patients hospitalized for 3 or 6 months; however, a 6-month hospitalization period was more effective in reducing body weight and adiposity.
