Structured Perioperative Nursing Education and Short-Term Outcomes After Metabolic Bariatric Surgery: A Nonrandomized, Temporally Allocated Controlled Study

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 13 Oct 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

This study evaluated whether a structured, nurse-led perioperative education program, supported by an illustrated Arabic booklet, is associated with better short-term outcomes in adults undergoing metabolic and bariatric surgery (MBS). The main outcome was eating behavior at 6 months after surgery. Other outcomes were knowledge about bariatric surgery, weight loss, quality of life, and recorded postoperative symptoms and events. Patients who received routine hospital care were compared with patients who received the structured education program.
