Healthetech, Inc. SMART Study

Completed · Phase 2

Conditions studied: Moderate Behavior Management, Intensive Behavior Management

In brief

This study is designed to gain experience with the HealtheTech measurement system (BalanceLog) in the context of a clinical trial and to develop the related treatment protocols. In this study the aim is to evaluate two interventions, one moderate and the other intensive behavioral management. The development and evaluation of a HealtheTech protocol across these two treatment settings will provide useful data about implementation (e.g., technical issues, clinical issues, participant satisfaction) and outcomes (weight loss, retention). These data can provide empirical and clinical support for practice guidelines.
