Abstract

This study measured patient response to a self-help weight loss workbook designed for use in an outpatient, family medicine practice. The primary measures were 2 follow-up telephone calls, the first at 1 week and the second at 1 month after the book was given to the patient. Initially, patients were enthusiastic about the book and had read it, and 24 (70%) intended to use it. On the other hand, at 1 month, only 8 (32%) of those called were actually using the book. Reasons for this change are explored.

一项试点研究,检查患者对减肥工作簿的反应,设计用于家庭医学门诊设置。
本研究测量了病人对自助减肥工作簿的反应,该工作簿设计用于门诊家庭医学实践。主要措施是2次随访电话,第一次在给患者书后1周,第二次在1个月。最初,患者对这本书很感兴趣,并且已经阅读了它,24人(70%)打算使用它。另一方面,在1个月时,只有8人(32%)真正在使用这本书。对这种变化的原因进行了探讨。
