Anaesthesia of patients for bariatric surgery is a major challenge. It is essential to take into account the specific pathophysiology, comorbidities and related complications associated with obesity. An increased attention and an adequate monitoring during arousal from anaesthesia should be an integral part of the perioperative management.
