Self-assessment and monitoring of the patient enable the patient to participate in his/her self-care, supports self-management behaviors, and improves their quality of life. Objective: It was aimed to develop a mobile support application for patients undergoing bariatric surgery and to evaluate the effect of application use on patients' self-management, quality of life, and clinical outcomes.

In the second stage, it was aimed to conduct a randomized controlled study to determine the effect of the developed mobile application on the self-management, quality of life and clinical outcomes of the patients. The developed mobile application will be introduced to patients at discharge after bariatric surgery. Rating scales will be administered to patients at the end of one, three, and six months after surgery. These scales are the Bariatric Surgery Self-Management Behaviors Scale and the Moorehead-Ardelt Quality of Life Scale-II.
