Summary: | to evaluate the effect of remote nursing monitoring on the improvement of anthropometric measurements of overweight women.
controlled, randomized clinical trial, carried out in a reference outpatient clinic for treatment of obesity. The baseline sample was composed of 101 women randomly assigned to two groups, 51 in the intervention group (IG) and 50 in the control group (CG). The IG received remote monitoring through telephone calls and conventional monitoring, and the CG received conventional monitoring. Women were assessed at the baseline and after three months of intervention. A paired t-test and analysis of covariance were used to evaluate intragroup differences in anthropometric measurements, and the statistical significance of 5% was adopted. Eighty one women completed the study.
in the intergroup comparison after the intervention, a reduction of 1.66 kg in the mean weight (p = 0.017) and of 0.66 kg/m2 in the mean BMI (p = 0.015) was found in the intervention group. There was a borderline statistically significant (p = 0.055) reduction of 2.5 cm in WC with in the intervention group.
