RS1 - Digital Intervention for Obesity

Tuesday, April 16, 2024
11:30 AM – 12:30 PM CT
Location: 100/101, Level 1, ACCC
This presentation will describe a design-for-dissemination approach to adaptation and pilot testing of a prevention-focused, mobile interactive obesity treatment approach (iOTA) for individuals with early-phase severe mental illness (eSMI).

Learning Objectives:

  • Participants will learn about implementation science methods for adapting and testing evidence-based mobile health (mHealth) lifestyle interventions in real-world clinical settings.
  • Participants will be able to identify which components of an interactive obesity treatment approach (iOTA) are feasible, acceptable and most effective when delivered in community mental health clinic settings.
  • Participants will understand the pros and cons of using digital tools to extend reach and improve physical health in patients living in rural and/or minoritized communities.
