While lifelong follow-up care is recommended to support long-term outcomes, follow-up attendance remains suboptimal.

The adapted SCNS-SF34 demonstrated good structural coherence and internal consistency in this bariatric population. Reported needs scores ranged from 17.3 for physical and daily living needs to 26.1 for health system and information needs. In within-person comparisons, health system and information needs were significantly higher than all other domains (all\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      &lt;0.001).
