Abstract
Obesity is a serious health problem with global implications. Bariatric surgery (BS) is the most used and effective treatment, but there are patients who do not lose a substantial amount of weight, a fact that has been related with the presence of emotional eating, anxiety and depression symptoms. The aim of this study is to analyze the effectiveness and feasibility of an emotion regulation-based intervention called Unified Protocol (UP), applied in group format to 6 post-BS patients presenting emotional disorders/symptoms. Results at post-treatment shown high attendance rates and satisfaction with the UP scores and significant improvements on neuroticism, eating disorders symptoms and emotional eating. At 6-month follow-up we found significant reductions on anxiety symptoms, neuroticism, maladjustment and dysregulation (d = 0.83-1.46) and the body mass index remained stable over time. These preliminary results are encouraging about the effectiveness and feasibility of the UP to treat emotional dysregulation in patients after BS.
La obesidad es un grave problema de salud con implicaciones globales. La cirugía bariátrica (CB) es el tratamiento más utilizado y eficaz, pero hay pacientes que no pierden una cantidad sustancial de peso, hecho que se ha relacionado con la presencia de síntomas de alimentación emocional, ansiedad y depresión. El objetivo de este estudio es analizar la viabilidad y efectividad de una intervención basada en la regulación de las emociones denominada Protocolo Unificado (PU), aplicada en formato grupal a 6 pacientes post-CB que presentan trastornos/síntomas emocionales. Los resultados tras el tratamiento mostraron altas tasas de asistencia y satisfacción con el PU, y mejorías estadísticamente significativas para el neuroticismo, los síntomas de los trastornos alimentarios y la alimentación emocional. En el seguimiento a los 6 meses, se muestran reducciones significativas en los síntomas de ansiedad, neuroticismo, inadaptación y disregulación (d = 0.83-1.46) y el índice de masa corporal se mantuvo estable a lo largo del tiempo. Estos resultados preliminares son esperanzadores sobre la viabilidad y efectividad del PU para tratar la disregulación emocional en pacientes después de la CB.
