NCT03214471

Brief Summary

The aim of this trial is to evaluate the effect of a post-surgery 12-month lifestyle intervention compared to usual care upon post-surgery weight loss and changes that occur in body composition (relative amounts of body fat, muscle and bone), physical fitness and activity levels, diseases linked to obesity (e.g. diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol level, sleep apnoea) and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) over a 12-month period.

Study Arms (2)

Usual Care

NO INTERVENTION

usual care provided by the NHS for patients undergoing bariatric surgery.

Intervention

EXPERIMENTAL

usual care + BARI-LIFESTYLE intervention

Behavioral: Lifestyle intervention

Interventions

Nutritional and behavioural tele-counselling , self-monitoring and a 12-week supervised tailored exercise programme. Participants will receive a regular tele-counselling throughout the 12-month. Each session will take approximately 15 minutes, underpinned by behavioural psychological techniques. After their 3-month post-surgery assessment visit, participants in the BARI-LIFESTYLE Intervention Study will be enrolled in a supervised exercise programme at health facility gyms for 12 weeks.

Intervention Model
PARALLEL
Model Details: The trial will be a two-arm, parallel group, single-blinded, single site RCT (embedded within an observational cohort study) conducted in London, United Kingdom (UK). A two-staged randomised consent design will be applied (See 8.2 Randomisation procedures). Recruitment will take place at the Bariatric Centre for Weight Management and Metabolic Surgery, University College London Hospitals (UCLH) and the Bariatric and Obesity Surgery Clinic at the Whittington Hospital. The trial will be carried out by the Centre for Obesity Research, Division of Medicine, University College London (UCL) at UCLH, which will be commenced in August 2017 with the expected total duration of 36 months. The total duration of each participation in the trial is approximately 12-16 months (12 months from the day of surgery). All participants will have to attend 4 research visits; baseline visit (approximately 6 weeks before surgery), then at approximately 3, 6, and 12-month post-surgery.
