ACOG Committee Opinion No. 763: Ethical Considerations for the Care of Patients With Obesity.

Abstract:

:Obesity is a medical condition that may be associated with bias among health care professionals, and this bias may result in disrespectful or inadequate care of patients with obesity. Obstetrician-gynecologists regularly care for patients with obesity and play an integral role in advocating for best practices in health care and optimizing health outcomes for patients with obesity. Obstetrician-gynecologists should be prepared to care for their patients with obesity in a nonjudgmental manner, being cognizant of the medical and societal implications of obesity. This Committee Opinion has been updated from its previous version to focus on obesity bias within the medical community and to provide practical guidance using people-first language instead of labels (ie, "patients with obesity" versus "obese patients") to help obstetrician-gynecologists deliver effective, compassionate medical care that meets the needs of patients with obesity.
