Project Abstract Severe obesity (body mass index [BMI]>35) affects nearly 20 million adults in the U.S. and is twice as common in adults from the lowest socioeconomic strata compared to the highest. Adults with severe obesity are much more likely to have obesity-related comorbidities, poorer quality of life, and shortened lifespans. Randomized controlled trials and observational studies have found that bariatric surgery provides greater weight loss and comorbidity resolution, better quality of life, and longer lifespans as compared with medical weight management strategies. Using Medicaid status as a way to identify lower socioeconomic status (SES), our preliminary data indicate that lower SES patients who undergo bariatric surgery have worse outcomes than higher SES patients. Among all adults who underwent bariatric surgery in Wisconsin from 2011-2014, Medicaid patients had higher rates of emergency department (ED) visits and readmissions within the first year following bariatric surgery. Similarly, our single institution reviews from two academic medical centers in different states found that Medicaid patients had higher rates of ED visits and readmissions within 90 days of surgery. Medicaid patients also lost significantly less weight than did non-Medicaid patients after bariatric surgery. Reasons for these disparities between Medicaid and non-Medicaid patients undergoing bariatric surgery are unknown. Our long-term goal is to develop and implement effective interventions that will improve the health of adults with severe obesity. Our objective in this application is to identify patient and community-level characteristics that are associated with suboptimal 90-day and 1-year outcomes for Medicaid patients who undergo bariatric surgery. To achieve this, we will use a sequential explanatory design, which includes collection and analysis of quantitative data, followed by collection and analysis of qualitative data. This mixed methods research design will allow us to explain and extend the quantitative findings through additional, qualitative studies. We propose the following two Specific Aims: 1) Identify patient characteristics and community-level determinants of health that are associated with suboptimal outcomes for Medicaid and non- Medicaid bariatric surgery patients; and 2) Understand patient and clinical care team perspectives on how patient, provider, and community-level determinants of health influence outcomes for Medicaid vs. non- Medicaid patients who undergo bariatric surgery.

项目摘要 严重的肥胖（体重指数[BMI]> 35）在美国影响近2000万成年人，是两倍的 与最高的社会经济阶层相比，在成年人中很常见。患有严重肥胖的成年人 与肥胖相关的合并症，生活质量较差和寿命缩短的可能性更大。 随机对照试验和观察性研究发现，减肥手术可提供更大的 与医学相比 体重管理策略。使用医疗补助状况作为识别较低社会经济地位（SES）的一种方式， 我们的初步数据表明，接受减肥手术的较低的SES患者的预后比 更高的SES患者。在2011年至2014年在威斯康星州接受减肥手术的所有成年人中，医疗补助 患者的急诊科（ED）访问和再入院率较高。 减肥手术。同样，我们的单一机构从不同州的两个学术医疗中心进行了审查 发现医疗补助患者在手术后90天内的急诊就诊和再入院率较高。 医疗补助患者的体重也比减肥手术后的非药物辅助患者的体重显着少得多。 医疗补助和非医疗辅助手术患者之间存在这些差异的原因是 未知。我们的长期目标是制定和实施有效的干预措施，以改善 患有严重肥胖症的成年人。我们在此应用程序中的目标是确定患者和社区级别 与医疗补助患者相关的90天和1年结果的特征 接受减肥手术。为此，我们将使用连续的解释设计，其中包括 定量数据的收集和分析，然后收集和分析定性数据。这混合了 方法研究设计将使我们能够通过额外 定性研究。我们提出以下两个具体目的：1）确定患者特征和 与医疗补助和非次优结果相关的社区级别决定因素 医疗补助减肥手术患者； 2）了解患者和临床护理团队的观点 医疗补助与非 - 接受减肥手术的医疗补助患者。
