Mobile Application for Bariatric Surgery Patients

Status Recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

Introduction: One of the alternative ways, as a result of the increasing demand for health services and the inadequacy of meeting the increasing needs, is mobile health applications. According to TUIK 2019 data, the rate of having mobile phones in households is 98.7%. With the development of technology, all information can be integrated into the mobile phone, and mobile applications allow the patient to give data from the environment in which he lives and to evaluate himself. Self-assessment and monitoring of the patient enable the patient to participate in his/her self-care, supports self-management behaviors, and improves their quality of life. Objective: It was aimed to develop a mobile support application for patients undergoing bariatric surgery and to evaluate the effect of application use on patients' self-management, quality of life, and clinical outcomes. Method: In the first stage; - Preparing the information to be included in the mobile health application that is planned to be developed and evaluating the quality of the content, - Parallel to this, the adaptation of the "Bariatric Surgery Self-Management Behaviors Scale" into Turkish and the evaluation of its validity and reliability. - Design of the mobile application, transferring the educational content to the mobile application, - It is aimed to evaluate the technical suitability and usability of the mobile application. In the second stage, it was aimed to conduct a randomized controlled study to determine the effect of the developed mobile application on the self-management, quality of life and clinical outcomes of the patients. The developed mobile application will be introduced to patients at discharge after bariatric surgery. Rating scales will be administered to patients at the end of one, three, and six months after surgery. These scales are the Bariatric Surgery Self-Management Behaviors Scale and the Moorehead-Ardelt Quality of Life Scale-II. Conclusion: It is expected that the mobile application-based education to be developed for bariatric surgery will improve the patients' post-surgical self-management, increase their quality of life and decrease the early complication rates.

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
