While the prevalence of overweight and obesity has been increasing annually, the accessibility of on-site treatment programs is not rising correspondingly. Digital, evidence-based obesity treatment programs could potentially alleviate this situation. The application has been developed to enable patients with obesity (BMI 30-45 kg/m) to participate in a digital, multimodal weight reduction program based on current treatment guidelines. This article is divided into two parts: (I) it introduces , its aims and therapeutic concept, and (II) provides a first impression and demographic data on more than 11,000 patients from across the country who have used within the last 16 months, which demonstrates the demand for a digital obesity treatment. has the potential to partially close the current gap in obesity care. Future work should focus on identifying predictors of successful weight loss to further individualize digital obesity treatment, and an important next step would be to prevent obesity, i.e., to start the treatment at lower BMI levels, and to invent digital treatment programs for children and adolescents.
尽管超重和肥胖的患病率逐年上升，但现场治疗方案的可及性并没有相应提高。基于证据的数字肥胖治疗方案可能会缓解这种情况。该应用程序旨在使肥胖患者（BMI 30-45 kg/m）能够根据当前治疗指南参与基于数字的多模式减肥计划。本文分为两部分：（I）介绍 及其目的和治疗概念；（II）介绍在过去 16 个月中来自全国各地的 11000 多名使用 患者的第一印象和人口统计学数据，这表明对数字肥胖治疗存在需求。 有可能部分弥合肥胖治疗方面的当前差距。未来的工作重点应放在确定成功减肥的预测因素上，以进一步实现数字肥胖治疗的个体化，并迈出重要的下一步，即预防肥胖，即降低 BMI 水平开始治疗，并为儿童和青少年发明数字治疗方案。
