Intensified Digital Platform for Enhanced Bariatric Surgery Support

This study focuses on individuals who have undergone bariatric surgery, a procedure to help with weight loss. The research aims to understand the effects of a newly enhanced digital platform, designed to support patients after their surgery. The goal is to improve patient education and support through digital tools, which is increasingly important as bariatric surgery becomes a more common treatment for obesity. This study could pave the way for better patient-centered support in the field of bariatric care, potentially improving the quality of life for those who have had this surgery. Participants in this study will use an intensified version of the 'Get Ready' smartphone application, designed to provide more interactive support. The study will measure several aspects, including the amount of weight lost before surgery due to a preparatory diet, the occurrence of dumping symptoms, which is a common side effect of bariatric surgery, and the quality of life. Additionally, the study will assess how well participants follow the recommended supplement intake. The results could help in further developing the 'Get Ready' application, ensuring it provides the best possible support for patients in their post-surgery journey.
