Effect of an Intervention for Obesity and Depression on Patient-Centered Outcomes: An RCT.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

An integrated collaborative care intervention was successful for treating comorbid obesity and depression. The effect of the integrated intervention on secondary outcomes of quality of life and psychosocial functioning were examined, as well as whether improvements in these secondary outcomes were correlated with improvements in the primary outcomes of weight and depressive symptoms.

Study design

This RCT compared an integrated collaborative care intervention for obesity and depression to usual care. Data were analyzed in 2018.

Setting/participants

Adult primary care patients (n=409) with a BMI ≥30 (≥27 if Asian) and 9-Item Patient Health Questionnaire score ≥10 were recruited from September 30, 2014 to January 12, 2017 from primary care clinics in Northe
