我们评估了参加体重管理和减肥手术项目（WMP）的参与者中家庭粮食不安全（HFI）的患病率和相关性。我们调查了参与者（N = 298）与一个孩子和浪漫的伴侣居住在两个WMP提供减肥手术和医疗体重管理。我们使用饥饿生命体征评估HFI，并进行多变量logistic回归以评估HFI的相关性。HFI在29.2%的参与者中存在。在低收入和有三个或三个以上孩子住在家里的参与者中，HFI的几率增加。这与性别、种族、项目类型、教育程度或BMI无关。HFI在WMP参与者中非常普遍。WMP应筛查所有参与者的粮食不安全问题，以解决健康生活方式的潜在障碍。
We evaluated the prevalence and correlates of household food insecurity (HFI) in participants attending weight management and bariatric surgery programs (WMP). We surveyed participants (N = 298) residing with a child and romantic partner from two WMP offering bariatric surgery and medical weight management. We assessed HFI using the Hunger Vital Sign and conducted multivariate logistic regression to assess correlates of HFI. HFI was present in 29.2% of participants. There were increased odds of HFI in participants with lower income and those with three or more children living at home. There was no association with sex, race, program type, education, or BMI. HFI is highly prevalent among participants of WMP. WMP should screen all participants for food insecurity to address this potential barrier to a healthy lifestyle.
