简要总结
The primary aim of this study is to examine the effect of applying a minimal contact technology-based intervention (TECH) at 1-year post-bariatric surgery on weight change compared to Standard Care. Forty participants at 1-year post bariatric surgery will be randomized to TECH or Standard Care for a period of 6 months (12 to 18 months post-surgery). Analyses will be conducted to compare these interventions for differences in body weight, body composition, fitness, physical activity, engagement, psychosocial measures, and intervention cost and cost-effectiveness of each approach. TECH will consist of a wearable monitor that provides feedback on energy expenditure and physical activity, electronic tracking of dietary intake, and integration of an electronic scale to provide comprehensive feedback to the participant on all components of weight management. TECH participants will receive a monthly telephone call from the intervention staff to provide guidance on their weight management efforts.
详细描述
This randomized controlled trial will examine the effect of a minimal contact technology-based system in comparison to standard care on body weight in adults 1 year post-bariatric surgery. This 6 month intervention will be conducted at the University of Pittsburgh, Physical Activity and Weight Management Research Center. Eligible participants who obtain physician's consent will undergo baseline assessments. Assessments will be described in further detail below.
Eligible participants who complete all baseline assessment procedures will be randomized to one of two intervention groups: The minimal contact technology-based intervention using the Jawbone UP3 System combined with a monthly intervention telephone call (TECH), or Standard Care.
Standard Care serves as the no treatment control in this project. Participants in this group will receive the typical care from their surgeon following bariatric surgery. No additional interventions will be given to participants randomized to this group.
TECH Intervention: TECH is the experimental group in this project. A minimal-contact technology-based intervention for weight management will be given to this group in addition to the standard or typical care received from their surgeon following bariatric surgery. The following information outlines the protocol for this intervention group.
Dietary Component: Dietary recommendations will be based on the subjects' baseline body weight, with calorie and fat intake goals ranging from 1200-2100 kcal/day and 20-30% of daily calories respectively. The calorie goals are based on intake recommendations that have been shown to result in successful short-term weight loss with fat intake goals consistent with the USDA Dietary Guidelines. To facilitate adoption and maintenance of these dietary intake goals, participants will be provided with meal plans and sample recipes. In addition, participants will be taught how to read food labels and will be provided with The Calorie King Calorie, Fat, and Carbohydrate Counter to facilitate self-monitoring of calorie and fat intake. Intervention lessons will be sent to the participants via email and will also include information related to behavior strategies for achieving the desired calorie and fat intake goals.
