This document summarizes the development of a new "Eat, Think, Change" group for patients struggling with disordered eating and binge eating disorder (BED) within an existing weight management program. The group aims to address the mechanisms maintaining disordered eating behaviors before focusing on weight loss. Initial outcomes show reductions in binge eating frequency and increased awareness of eating behaviors among participants. The program aims to provide more effective support for this population and prevent cycles of unsuccessful weight loss attempts.

Effects of unhealthy eating habits
Specific Aims
1). Concise statement of goals I would like to work with individuals experiencing health problems due to unhealthy eating habits, and inactivity. The purpose is to see if participants would agree to attend the program for 5 days to learn about healthy diet, food, exercise, food preparation, calorie count, and if they would use resources available to help them with their diet and exercise.
2). Novel Design
Chart #1: Displays the numbers of people eating fruits, vegetables, and consuming a low cal diet, vegetarians, dieters, unhealthy eaters
Chart #2: Displays the five categories that I will use to create manuals for participants to review to learn about the socio demographics, psychosocial knowledge and how beliefs attitudes and norms are part of self-efficacy and it establishes behavior patterns.
Per: Raghunathan, Rajagopal, et al. “The Unhealthy = Tasty Intuition and Its Effects on Taste Inferences, Enjoyment, and Choice of Food Products. “Journal of Marketing, vol.70, no. 4 (2006), pp. 170-184
3). solve a specific problem
I would like to design a comprehensive program on a community or state level that addresses poor eating habits, poor nutrition, and physical inactivity. Within the State of Maryland we have a large amount of chronic diseases and death per year due to the poor diets that people have become comfortable with, and the lack of physical activity which also contributes to the high rates of sugar diabetes, osteoporosis, obesity, and stroke. This is a serious matter when you think about it 1 out of 10 people suffer from one or more of the chronic diseases listed. I would like to have a facility where I can teaching people how to eat by using scales to measure the portion of meats, vegetables, fruits, measuring the amount of calories, carbohydrates, saturated fats, total fat, what foods to eat, how to prepare them. If I can encourage families to join us for a day to enjoy fun exercise activities, along with healthy meal made using fresh fruits and vegetables. Families will want to come again enthused to improve their dietary patterns and activities. Within this facility I would like a gym and track to allow them to exercise because this will boots their energy and if we meet with them three times a week to teach regular physical activity. The object is to show them how to improve their muscle strength and boost their endurance. The gym would afford them the resource needed to exercise. The exercise gives them great benefits to deliver oxygen and nutrients to their tissues and improve their cardiovascular system. The nutrition program and the exercise stem together would make this efficient. By showing participants end results that reflect a healthier heart and lung they will feel good an ...

Medical Technology Tackles New Health Care Demand - Research Report - March 2...pchutichetpong
M Capital Group (“MCG”) predicts that with, against, despite, and even without the global pandemic, the medical technology (MedTech) industry shows signs of continuous healthy growth, driven by smaller, faster, and cheaper devices, growing demand for home-based applications, technological innovation, strategic acquisitions, investments, and SPAC listings. MCG predicts that this should reflects itself in annual growth of over 6%, well beyond 2028.
According to Chris Mouchabhani, Managing Partner at M Capital Group, “Despite all economic scenarios that one may consider, beyond overall economic shocks, medical technology should remain one of the most promising and robust sectors over the short to medium term and well beyond 2028.”
There is a movement towards home-based care for the elderly, next generation scanning and MRI devices, wearable technology, artificial intelligence incorporation, and online connectivity. Experts also see a focus on predictive, preventive, personalized, participatory, and precision medicine, with rising levels of integration of home care and technological innovation.
The average cost of treatment has been rising across the board, creating additional financial burdens to governments, healthcare providers and insurance companies. According to MCG, cost-per-inpatient-stay in the United States alone rose on average annually by over 13% between 2014 to 2021, leading MedTech to focus research efforts on optimized medical equipment at lower price points, whilst emphasizing portability and ease of use. Namely, 46% of the 1,008 medical technology companies in the 2021 MedTech Innovator (“MTI”) database are focusing on prevention, wellness, detection, or diagnosis, signaling a clear push for preventive care to also tackle costs.
In addition, there has also been a lasting impact on consumer and medical demand for home care, supported by the pandemic. Lockdowns, closure of care facilities, and healthcare systems subjected to capacity pressure, accelerated demand away from traditional inpatient care. Now, outpatient care solutions are driving industry production, with nearly 70% of recent diagnostics start-up companies producing products in areas such as ambulatory clinics, at-home care, and self-administered diagnostics.
Antibiotic Stewardship by Anushri Srivastava.pptxAnushriSrivastav
Stewardship is the act of taking good care of something.
Antimicrobial stewardship is a coordinated program that promotes the appropriate use of antimicrobials (including antibiotics), improves patient outcomes, reduces microbial resistance, and decreases the spread of infections caused by multidrug-resistant organisms.
WHO launched the Global Antimicrobial Resistance and Use Surveillance System (GLASS) in 2015 to fill knowledge gaps and inform strategies at all levels.
ACCORDING TO apic.org,
Antimicrobial stewardship is a coordinated program that promotes the appropriate use of antimicrobials (including antibiotics), improves patient outcomes, reduces microbial resistance, and decreases the spread of infections caused by multidrug-resistant organisms.
ACCORDING TO pewtrusts.org,
Antibiotic stewardship refers to efforts in doctors’ offices, hospitals, long term care facilities, and other health care settings to ensure that antibiotics are used only when necessary and appropriate
According to WHO,
Antimicrobial stewardship is a systematic approach to educate and support health care professionals to follow evidence-based guidelines for prescribing and administering antimicrobials
In 1996, John McGowan and Dale Gerding first applied the term antimicrobial stewardship, where they suggested a causal association between antimicrobial agent use and resistance. They also focused on the urgency of large-scale controlled trials of antimicrobial-use regulation employing sophisticated epidemiologic methods, molecular typing, and precise resistance mechanism analysis.
Antimicrobial Stewardship(AMS) refers to the optimal selection, dosing, and duration of antimicrobial treatment resulting in the best clinical outcome with minimal side effects to the patients and minimal impact on subsequent resistance.
According to the 2019 report, in the US, more than 2.8 million antibiotic-resistant infections occur each year, and more than 35000 people die. In addition to this, it also mentioned that 223,900 cases of Clostridoides difficile occurred in 2017, of which 12800 people died. The report did not include viruses or parasites
VISION
Being proactive
Supporting optimal animal and human health
Exploring ways to reduce overall use of antimicrobials
Using the drugs that prevent and treat disease by killing microscopic organisms in a responsible way
GOAL
to prevent the generation and spread of antimicrobial resistance (AMR). Doing so will preserve the effectiveness of these drugs in animals and humans for years to come.
being to preserve human and animal health and the effectiveness of antimicrobial medications.
to implement a multidisciplinary approach in assembling a stewardship team to include an infectious disease physician, a clinical pharmacist with infectious diseases training, infection preventionist, and a close collaboration with the staff in the clinical microbiology laboratory
to prevent antimicrobial overuse, misuse and abuse.

5. Current Weight Management Programme
As a Weight Management Service our aims are:
• Treatment of overweight and obesity by diet and lifestyle
interventions
• Where required/appropriate the treatment of obesity by
pharmacological therapy and bariatric surgery
• Prevention of weight regain following treatment
(SIGN, 2010)
7. Current Weight Management Programme
However….
Q: How would this group environment feel if you could not relate to
the information provided or other group members?
8. Current Weight Management Programme
I’m not the same
as the people in
the group
No-one seems to be
in the same situation
as me
This is my 2nd time
through the weight
management programme
and I have failed both
times
I understand the
information but it’s
too difficult to make
changes
9. What are we missing?
Q: So, what is going wrong?
Q: What can we offer these people who are genuinely struggling?
Q: Is bariatric surgery the simple solution?
10. What are we missing?
• There is a population out there for whom this evidence based
tiered approach is not effective
• At initial assessment, we carry out an ‘Eating Behaviours
Questionnaire’ which includes the following 4 questions
– Are there times during the day when you could not have stopped eating, even
if you wanted to?
– Do you ever find yourself eating unusually large amounts of food in a short
period of time?
– Do you ever feel extremely guilty or depressed afterwards?
– Do you ever feel more determined to diet or to eat healthier after the eating
episode?
(SIGN, 2010)
11. What are we missing?
• From this information, it was apparent that Binge Eating Disorder
(BED) was prevalent within this population; data in line with
literature which estimated that 30% of patients within weight
management services are likely to have BED (SIGN 2010)
• In addition to the impact this eating behaviour was having on their
weight and their ability to lose weight it was also a source of great
distress – often impacting on day to day life.
• Work, relationships, mood and mental health all affected
detrimentally.
• However, the Lothian Eating Disorder Service does not currently
accept referrals for those with a BMI >40kg/m2
• A gap existed within the healthcare pathway
12. What is Binge Eating Disorder (BED)
Binge Eating Disorder Criteria (DSM 5, 2013)
BED is characterised by recurrent episodes* of binge eating that occur at
least once a week for 3 months
(*eating an unusually large amount of food in a discrete period of time,
having a sense of lack of control & causing marked distress)
Episodes are also associated with 3 of the following behaviours:
• Eating more rapidly
• Eating until uncomfortable full
• Eating large amounts of food when not physically hungry
• Eating alone due to embarrassment
• Feeling disgusted, depressed and guilty afterwards
(SIGN, 2010)
13. How could this be treated?
• A ‘gap’ or inequality had been identified… BED is more prevalent
that Anorexia Nervosa but help available did not reflect this.
(De Zwaan, 2001)
• The question at this time was ‘what support could we provide with
the very limited resources available?
– Initial pilot study identified patients referred to Weight Management Service
(WMS) with disordered eating or binge eating disorder
– BED affects approximately 30% of WMS patients (SIGN, 2010)
– In Lothian 58% of those assessed by psychology (30% of overall referred)
presented with significant disordered eating symptoms
14. What is Eat, Think, Change
• Group setting, co facilitated by Psychologist and Specialist WM
Dietitian
• Appropriate for patients with clinically significant disordered
eating/BED who meet Tier 3 criteria
• Patients are referred to the group by:
– Community Dietitians at initial Tier 3 assessment
– Patients identified at Tier 4 stage
– At point of triage
– All assessed by Psychologist
15. What is Eat, Think, Change (Aims)
• Main aim of the group is to provide an intervention which helps
individuals work towards stabilisation of eating behaviour in
preparation for the standard Tier 3 weight management
programme (which focuses on weight loss and lifestyle change)
• The group aims to address the main mechanisms maintaining the
patients disordered eating (or BED)
• The main outcomes for the group are:
– Reduction in binge frequency
– Reduction in binge duration
16. What is Eat, Think, Change
Areas Covered
-Education on:
-Balanced eating
-Binge Eating Disorder
-Obesity
-Diet/Binge cycle
-Impact of dieting
-Impact on weight
-Cognitive restructuring (Padesky)
- Self esteem (Fennel)
- Self Compassion (Gilbert)
- Anxiety/ Stress
- Depression and low mood
- Body image (Cash)
- Mindfulness (Kabat-Zinn)
- Sleep
- Applied relaxation
- Physical Activity
-Introducing self-monitoring
eating
- Identifying disorganised
eating/BED
- Identifying emotional eating
17. What is Eat, Think, Change (to patients)
“Before the group I felt hopeless and a failure – assuming something needed to
‘click’ in my head. I had no intentions for surgery. The size of the group was
perfect and there was time to discuss and feedback. The members were patient;
I was sceptical – could this fix me? I have learned I am not broken, I want to be
aware of the changes I need to make, of the habits I want to change. Reflection is
so helpful, I am bingeing less and less and gaining focus and control”
“I haven’t lost weight but I am very aware of what I am choosing and the effect it
will have. I know successful weight loss and sustained loss- is more to do with
my mind than my body”
(patient reflection at the end of E.T.C)
18. Eat, Think, Change - Outcomes
• Binge Frequency (From 2 groups)
• (EDEQ x in previous 28 days)
– 6 out of 10 patients reported no binge eating episodes in previous 28 days
post group
– ALL patients reported a reduction in binge frequency in previous 28 days post
group
– 73% (8 out of 11) patients reported a reduction in binge frequency in the 6
months post group
– 18% (2 out of 11) patients reported an increase in binge frequency in the 6
months post group
19. Starting to redress the balance…
• Further development and funding of this programme will provide a
more cost effective and efficient Weight Management Service.
– From a service point of view, prevents a cycle of patients completing the
same weight management programme with limited or no success. In the
past this has led to an increased risk of further weight related co-morbidities
and therefore further expense to NHS services
– From a ‘service user’ point of view, the appropriate intervention at the initial
stage of treatment could prevent increased feelings of failure and low self
esteem and ultimately prevent episodes of BED/disordered eating being
exacerbated
20. Starting to redress the balance…
• These personal feelings are damaging enough to an individuals
self esteem, confidence and ability to live their day to day lives
but are also frequently exacerbated by ongoing and incessant
feelings of judgement and shaming in a society that continues to
consider this as acceptable for the overweight/obese population
• How often do we see this judgement and fat shaming?
• Would we ever engage in this behaviour??...
