Overview

In this research, we hypothesize that post-operative monitoring implemented with a connected scale after the 1st year (weight nadir period) post obesity surgery (i.e. sleeve and RYGB) would reduce the percentage of patients with excessive weight regain (>10% regain of lost weight) by improving the quality of follow-up and long-term results.

To do this, we are carrying out a comparative study on 182 patients, controlled, randomized per patient, ratio 1/1, open, in two parallel arms.

Patients will be followed for 12 months and divided into one of the following two groups:

  • Control group: Standard follow-up
  • Interventional group: Standard follow-up + weekly weighing with the "Body Comp Pro" connected scale

During their follow-up period, patients in the intervention group will have to weigh themselves at least once a week using the "Body Comp Pro" connected scale. The information will be transmitted to the investigation team via a secure platform available 24 hours a day. Alerts will be generated from a weight regain > 5% of the baseline weight, allowing early management of weight regain.

Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Adult patient aged 18 and over
  • Patient operated by a sleeve or RYGB at 1 year (+/- 1 month) from the inclusion visit
  • Patient affiliated to a social security system (excluding AME)
  • Patient having signed free, informed and written consent
  • Patient speaking and reading French fluently

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Patient with medical-surgical complications during inclusion visit justifying specific and reinforced monitoring (at the discretion of the investigator)
  • Patient with a pacemaker
  • Patient with a pathology or disability preventing them from standing on the scale
  • Patient participating in another interventional research at the time of inclusion
  • At the interview, pregnant patient or planning pregnancy during her period of participation in the research
  • Patient deprived of liberty
  • Patient subject to a legal protection measure (guardianship, curatorship)

Why should I take part in a clinical trial?

Participating in a clinical trial provides early access to potentially effective treatments and directly contributes to the healthcare advancements that benefit us all.

How long does a clinical trial take place?

The duration of clinical trials varies. Some trials last weeks, some years, depending on the phase and intention of the trial.

Do I get compensated for taking part in clinical trials?

Compensation varies per trial. Some offer payment or reimbursement for time and travel, while others may not.

How safe are clinical trials?

Clinical trials follow strict ethical guidelines and protocols to safeguard participants' health. They are closely monitored and safety reviewed regularly.
