ABBREVIATIONS CON= Canadian Obesity Network ED= Eating Disorder HP= Health Professional WEIGHT BIAS SUMMIT OVERVIEW The two-day Weight Bias Summit took place on March 12 & 13, 2015, in the Blue Room at the Hotel Alma on main campus at the University of Calgary in Calgary, Alberta. The objective of the Summit was to bring together stakeholders (researchers, practitioners and policy makers) to discuss and facilitate the design of research projects aimed to reduce weight bias in three sectors (education, healthcare & public policy) in the province of Alberta. DAY 1: MARCH 12, 2015 *Please see the Weight Bias Summit Event Program for more details on the presentations, invited speakers and participants’ biographies. Outcome: Participants listened to lecture-style presentations on the newest research advances on the negative effects of weight bias and the results of interventions targeting its reduction in education, healthcare and public policy. This information provided the background knowledge and basis for the facilitated discussions on the second day of the Summit. Description: Participants attended daytime sessions on topics including weight bias prevalence, implications and interventions used in its reduction in healthcare, education, and public policy. These sessions were held in the Blue Room of Hotel Alma on main campus at the University of Calgary. Participants were encouraged to place their most important learning outcome a.k.a. a ‘golden nugget’ on a post-it placed on the wall so that participants can retain important information from the presentations. In the evening, participants and members of the public were invited to attend a public outreach/ dissemination event held at the Parkdale Community Center that featured an Expert Round Table discussion entitled: ‘Fear of fat: Promoting health in a fat phobic culture’. We advertised this by creating an event through EventBrite and sharing this link for registration to our networks. The audience included primarily employees from Alberta Health Services, University of Calgary and Calgary community members (N=107).

Describe the role that clinicians have in pre- and post-bariatric surgery care. 2. Identify new tools and evidence for assessing and supporting bariatric surgery patients throughout the bariatric surgery process. 3. Apply medical, nutrition and psychosocial protocols and interventions that improve patient outcomes after bariatric surgery. Abstract: Bariatric surgery is recognized as an effective and durable treatment for severe obesity; however, bariatric and primary care teams require awareness and skills to manage the myriad of pre- and post-operative concerns. Pre-surgery concerns consist of bariatric surgery readiness assessment, surgical risks and psychosocial stability. Further, patients require additional assessment and intervention after surgery, including early recognition of bariatric surgery complications and evidence-informed psychosocial interventions to maintain weight loss and health benefits long-term. This full-day workshop will provide participants with an integrated interprofessional approach to bariatric surgery assessment and aftercare.

  • Improving Obesity Management Training in Family Medicine
    Luig et al. BMC Medical Education (2020) 20:5 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12909-019-1908-0 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Improving obesity management training in family medicine: multi-methods evaluation of the 5AsT-MD pilot course Thea Luig1, Sonja Wicklum2, Melanie Heatherington1, Albert Vu3, Erin Cameron4, Doug Klein5, Arya M. Sharma6,7 and Denise L. Campbell-Scherer1,5,7,8* Abstract Background: Quality, evidence-based obesity management training for family medicine residents is needed to better support patients. To address this gap, we developed a comprehensive course based on the 5As of Obesity Management™ (ASK, ASSESS, ADVISE, AGREE, ASSIST), a framework and suite of resources to improve residents’ knowledge and confidence in obesity counselling. This study assessed the course’s impact on residents’ attitudes, beliefs, and confidence with obesity counselling. Methods: The course combines lectures with a bariatric empathy suit experience, standardized and in-clinic patient practice, and narrative reflections. Using a multi-methods design we measured changes in 42 residents’ attitudes, beliefs, and self-confidence and thematically analyzed the narrative reflections to understand residents’ experience with the course content and pedagogy. Results: Following the course, residents reported improved attitudes towards people living with obesity and improved confidence for obesity counselling. Pre/post improvement in BAOP scores (n = 32) were significant (p < .001)., ATOP scores did not change significantly. Residents showed improvement in assessing root causes of weight gain (p < .01), advising patients on treatment options (p < .05), agreeing with patients on health outcomes (p < .05), assisting patients in addressing their barriers (p < .05), counseling patients on weight gain during pregnancy, (p < .05), counseling patients on depression and anxiety (p < .01), counseling patients on iatrogenic causes of weight gain (p < .01), counseling patients who have children with obesity (p < .05), and referring patients to interdisciplinary providers for care (p < .05).
