Abstract: The research provides a comprehensive investigation of the influence of telemedicine utilisation during the COVID-19 epidemic on bariatric surgery safety outcomes and user satisfaction with this follow-up. The telemedicine-assured follow-up did not change the outcomes of bariatric surgery, which suggests that it may be a viable option for regular monitoring of the post-bariatric surgery process.
