Clinical Trial Description

In Singapore, a nationwide partial lockdown, termed the "circuit breaker" was imposed from 7th April until 1st June 2020 in response to the COVID-19 pandemic (Appendix A). Our study aims to evaluate the impact of social distancing and lockdowns during this circuit breaker period on our patients with obesity, either post-metabolic surgery (MS) or undergoing active medical management (MM), during the COVID-19 pandemic in Singapore. Results will help inform and address the challenges in patient care that this pandemic has brought to light, its long-term implications on the management of the bariatric patient and discuss potential strategies for the management of a bariatric patient in a post COVID-19 society. To the knowledge of this paper, this is the first study to compare the impact of COVID on MS and MM patients which will allow understanding of unique stressors faced by MS patients This study adopted a cross-sectional survey design to evaluate the impact of lockdown social distancing measures on obese patients in Singapore. The study conducted either face-to-face questionnaires in the clinic after lockdown for those who were not suitable for video consultation or questionnaires administered via telecommunication channels such as WhatsApp ;
