Age
18 Years to No maximum

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: • patients with elective bowel surgery • adults (=18 years) • agreement for therapy according to ERAS criteria • ability to understand the character and the individual consequences of the study. Also the acceptance and willingness to follow the requirements of the study protocol (carrying sensors, photo-documentation) • signed declaration of consent after study instructions • Barthel Index concerning mobility at least 10 points: "walks with help of one person (verbal or physical) > 50 yards"

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: • language barriers (valid declaration of consent is not possible, misunderstanding of the documentation) • hearing problems, which can not be compensated and make a fluent conversation difficult • mental conditions, which make a MI-consultation impossible • confinement to bed (Barthel mobility < 10 points) • PEG or parenteral nutrition • expected non-compliance • cardial devices: CCM, ICD, CRT, because of the interaction risk with mobility-sensors • participation on another study with the same primary endpoint (mobility or nutrition)

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Comparison of the groups as to whether motivational interviewing can improve the achievement of the ERAS-goals with regard to postoperative mobilization and nutrition (from op day to third postoperative day) Mobilization parameter: Steps & activity parameters: lie, sit, stand, walk Nutrition parameter: Kcal Uptake via food & proteinshakes

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
„Scientific-Feasibility“: Evaluation of the postoperative food-intake and mobilization in general with objective data exploration meaningfullness of „universelly“ (not-personalized) ERAS-goals Validity and Fidelity of the MI-Intervention (Patient perspective: REM-Questionnaire; Supervision (qualitative) and objective, quantiative Evaluation with Motivational Interviewing Treatment Integrity - MITI); “contamination” of the control group (quantitative by written questioning after the study, if they think that they were in the control or experimental group - examination of blinding; REM - Questionnaire; „Process-Feasibility“: recruitment-rate (percentage included participants after screening); acceptance und compliance of the patients in terms of technical equipment (percentage utilization of the sensors & photo-documentation); evaluation of the MI-Consulations by patients (Rating Scales for the Assessment of Empathic Communication in Medical Interviews - REM-questionnaire); integration MI-intervention in everyday life of the clinic (quantitative: Duration of MI-Consultations; qualitative: clinic-setting, interviewer-perspective) Questionnaires: IPAQ - physical activity (pre-op) PG-SGA - nutrition (pre-op) GSE - Self-efficacy (pre-op, post op day 3) PAM13-D - Patientactivation (pre-op, post op day 3) PEQ - Patient-Satisfaction (post-op day 30) HADS - Anxiety/Depression (pre-op, post op day 3) QoR-15 - Quality of Recovery (pre-op, post op day 1 & 3) Barthel-Index (pre-op, post op day 3) REM - felt empathy (post-op day 3) further raised parameters: ERAS-Compliance Variables (EIAS - database) apparative with sensors: kcal-consumption, MET-Level, heartfrequency, HRV (Baevskii-Stress-Index) daily pain, nausea (NRS-scale) op-duration, duration of hospitalization subjective assessment (patients) concerncing activity and food-intake for comparison with objective data usage of MI-elements from self-created "guide" (checked by supervision) for
