BACKGROUND
The rates of overweight and obesity are high among United States Veterans, necessitating the development of accessible weight reduction interventions.
PURPOSE
This observational study evaluated the efficacy of a novel home-based telehealth weight loss intervention (TeleMOVE) for Veterans with obesity.
METHODS
We obtained weight measures of 171 patients before and after one and two 90-day cycles of TeleMOVE.
RESULTS
Enrollment in the first 90-day cycle of TeleMOVE was associated with significant weight loss (M = 8.62 lbs, SD = 9.85). Those who subsequently enrolled in the second, identical, cycle lost significantly more weight overall (M = 11.68 lbs, SD = 12.53) than those who only enrolled in the first cycle (M = 5.55 lbs, SD = 8.23). However, this difference was due to two-cycle participants losing significantly more weight during the first cycle alone (M = 10.52, SD = 10.32).
CONCLUSIONS
TeleMOVE is a promising intervention, warranting a further investigation of its efficacy.
背景
美国退伍军人中超重和肥胖率很高，因此需要开发可及的减重干预措施。
目的
这项观察性研究评估了一种新型的基于家庭的远程医疗减肥干预措施（TeleMOVE）对肥胖退伍军人的疗效。
方法
我们获取了171名患者在TeleMOVE的一个和两个90天周期前后的体重测量值。
结果
参加TeleMOVE的第一个90天周期与显著体重减轻相关（均值 = 8.62磅，标准差 = 9.85）。随后参加第二个相同周期的患者总体上比只参加第一个周期的患者体重减轻得更多（均值 = 11.68磅，标准差 = 12.53）（均值 = 5.55磅，标准差 = 8.23）。然而，这种差异是由于参加两个周期的患者仅在第一个周期就显著减轻了更多体重（均值 = 10.52，标准差 = 10.32）。
结论
TeleMOVE是一种有前景的干预措施，值得进一步研究其疗效。
