Partnerships for Reducing Overweight and Obesity with Patient-Centered Strategies 2.0

Summary

The primary objective of the project is to adapt and implement a combined weight management intervention (an online program plus coaching and patient navigator support) across multiple settings and a diverse cross-section of patients and providers affiliated with Brigham and Women's Hospital (BWH).

The overall goals of the proposed project are:

1. To improve management of overweight and obesity in clinical and community settings.
2. To improve outcomes among patients with overweight or obesity.

To accomplish these goals, the investigators will engage with various stakeholders to adapt the combined intervention, implement the intervention across multiple settings and a diverse cross-section of patients and providers affiliated with BWH, evaluate the impact of the implementation, and create an implementation guide for dissemination.

The specific aims of the proposed project are as follows:

Aim 1: To continue to engage with patients, providers, and other stakeholders to adapt and integrate the intervention in a variety of clinical and community settings.

Aim 2: To implement the intervention in a variety of patients and settings and to evaluate its impact on outcomes, using the RE-AIM framework.

Aim 3: To evaluate maintenance of the intervention six months after formal implementation activities have ended, and to prepare a detailed implementation guide to help increase future reach and uptake.
