Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The objective of this proposal is to analyze if there is improvement of the postural balance, mobility and body perception of obese patients after weight loss consequent to bariatric surgery. The outcomes for comparison are differences in postural balance, mobility, and body perception before and after surgery. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| To evaluate if there is improvement of the static balance through the Mass Center oscillation of obese patients three months after bariatric surgery. Hypothesis: There will be improvement in the static balance and lower oscillation of the Mass Center of patients after three months of surgery.;To evaluate the mobility of obese patients through gait velocity tests and the "Time up and Go" test three months after bariatric surgery. Hypothesis: There will be improvement in the results of the tests, indicating improvement in the mobility of the patients after the surgery.;To analyze if three months after bariatric surgery there is a process of transformation and body acceptance of obese patients through the Questionnaire on Body Image. Hypothesis: There will be a change in the way patients understand their body and there will be greater acceptance of themselves.;To evaluate, three months after bariatric surgery, the degree of distortion and body dissatisfaction of obese patients through the Scale of Figures and Silhouettes. Hypothesis: There will be a decrease / absence of distortion and body dissatisfaction after weight loss due to surgery.;To evaluate, three months after bariatric surgery, the difficulty of obese patients to perform Daily Life Activities through the Health Assessment Questionnaire (HAQ). Hypothesis: It will be easier to perform activities of daily living after surgery. | — |
