Disorders (IFSO) issued new guidelines updating the previous 1991 guideline for bariatric surgery from the National Institute of Health (NIH).  Since the original release of the 1991 guidelines, the research and treatment of metabolic and bariatric surgery has vastly expanded.  Updates to criteria, thresholds, approved\/endorsed procedures and devices, and considerations for comorbidities are not widely known or understood.  The symposium offers the opportunity to bridge the knowledge gap for learners by disseminating these updates to learners who support bariatric patients in both the inpatient and outpatient settings.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"group-target-audience field-group-div\"\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTarget Audience\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"field
