Phone support after Weight-Loss surgery: does it help patients stay on track?
NCT ID NCT07137117
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether regular phone counseling can improve how well people follow nutrition, exercise, and medication plans after bariatric surgery. Researchers will enroll 80 patients who had sleeve gastrectomy and provide tele-counseling at set intervals after discharge. The goal is to see if this support boosts medication adherence and healthy attitudes toward diet and exercise.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- tele-counseling service
- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could show that regular phone support helps people maintain healthy habits and take their medications correctly after weight-loss surgery.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early-stage study with only 80 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. It tests a support service, not a new drug or treatment, so the impact is limited.
