The Effect of Tele-Counseling Service on Nutrition, Exercise Attitude, and Medication Adherence After Bariatric Surgery

Обзор

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of teleconsultation service on nutrition, exercise attitudes and medication adherence after bariatric surgery.

Подробное описание

Laparoscopic bariatric surgery is a popular procedure that offers proven long-term results in improving obesity-related comorbidities. However, after surgery, patients often experience behavioral adjustments, such as diet, physical activity, and medication use. These adjustments can lead to complications.In particular, poor adherence to vitamin supplements can lead to nutritional deficiencies and related health problems. Lack of adherence to physical activity is also frequently observed. Making lifestyle changes after bariatric surgery is important, and telecounseling stands out as an effective tool in this process. Telecounseling can help patients develop healthy lifestyle habits and increase access to healthcare.Studies show that telephone follow-up and counseling provided via mobile apps after bariatric surgery improves patient health management and treatment adherence. Furthermore, due to the limitations of written educational materials, telephone counseling fosters stronger patient motivation. This method can be customized to individual health needs and facilitates access to healthcare by eliminating geographic limitations. In conclusion, one-on-one telephone counseling can help patients maintain healthy lifestyles after bariatric surgery, improving treatment outcomes and positively impacting long-term health outcomes.
