This research poster summarizes effective ways to manage obesity through diet, exercise, medications, and bariatric surgery. The researchers compared diet and exercise to pharmacological interventions and bariatric surgery in obese patients with a BMI over 35. They found that consistency with diet correlated with weight loss, exercise provided weight loss and reduced chronic disease risk, and medications showed high success rates compared to placebos. Bariatric surgery resulted in significant weight loss and improvement of obesity-related health conditions, though behavioral changes were important for long-term maintenance. Overall, the most effective approach for severe obesity is bariatric surgery, but lifestyle modifications are critical for sustained results.

Introduction Research Question Conclusion
The purpose of this research In obese patients with a BMI greater than To summarize our topic, it can be a challenge 35, how effective is diet management and to not only lose weight but keeping it off. Most poster is to identify effective ways exercise in comparison to of the time, obesity is accompanied by many to manage obesity. Some comorbidities that can be put into remission pharmacological interventions and modifications to control obesity bariatric surgery? through weight loss and maintenance and include, Following strict diets, living a healthier lifestyle by decreasing exercising more often, having consumption of modifiable risk factors. Not only is it important to have a healthy diet, its medications prescribed or having also a vital to eat at the right times, coupled to get bariatric surgery. This paper with exercise. Exercise increases your odds of follows the studies that have been putting a metabolic disease process in completed to try to manage the remission. Medications, although still being studied, have worked in some individuals. ongoing problem of obesity. Ultimately, the most effective way to combat morbid obesity, although posing an increased Background risk, is through bariatric surgery. For bariatric Summary of Research Findings surgery to be effective for long term weight Managing obesity in nursing practice is loss, behavior modifications usually play a - Consistency with diet did correlate important because of all the factors that large part. with subjects losing weight obesity can cause in patients. Obesity is a - Exercise proved to show weight loss disease that effects a large majority of adults. This then leads to hyperlipidemia, and decreased chronic disease risk hypertension, congestive heart failure, in younger and older adults coronary artery diseases, diabetes, or - When compared to the placebo being put at an increased risk of heart effect in the studies, medications attack. These risk factors being some of showed a high success rate. the leading causes of mortality in the world - Over 50% of patients in one study we must learn to manage obesity. had greater than 10% body weight loss on the medications. - Obesity-associated mortality and References co-morbidities such as type 2 diabetes, hypertension, dyslipidemia, obstructive sleep References available upon request. apnea, renal dysfunction, and depression improve significantly with bariatric surgery.
