Forward2019 University of Wisconsin Obesity Management Summit
The prevalence of obesity has increased significantly over the past decade. Nearly 40% of our population is obese today. It is critical for providers to understand what evidence-based treatments are available for obesity in the clinical setting. This includes behavior weight management, pharmacologic treatment, and bariatric surgery along with endoscopic procedures targeting obesity. It is also important for clinicians and other stakeholders to consider the barriers to obesity treatment at the patient level, provider level, and system level. Addressing these barriers to care is a critical component of ensuring that evidence-based obesity care is delivered in an effective manner.
Target Audience
This educational activity has been designed to meet the needs of physicians, physician assistants, nurse practitioners, nurses, health psychologists, dieticians, and other health care professionals interested in obesity care.
Elements of Competence
This CE activity has been designed to change learner competence and focuses on the American Board of Medical Specialties’ areas of medical knowledge, patient care and procedural skills, and practice based learning and improvement. This activity also focuses on the interprofessional competency of teams/teamwork.
Learning Objectives
At the conclusion of this educational activity, participants will be able to:
- Discuss and evaluate current knowledge and evidence gaps in evidence-based obesity care, including behavioral weight management, bariatric surgery and endoscopic procedures
- Formulate ideas regarding effective, collaborative efforts to minimize the impact of obesity in Wisconsin
