Paid Bariatric Surgery Patient Study ($650) EMS/M3 Global Research is currently conducting a study to refine ideas for the design of a nutrition program/system for bariatric patients. · We are looking for patients that recently (past 8 months) had bariatric surgery and live in the Boston, MA area to participate in an in-depth study. · As a small thank you we are offering each participant up to $650 for their time. · The program we are developing will include an education and tracking system focused on hydration and proteins; there are no clinical interventions involved. If you are interested or would like more information please contact us ASAP on 877 311 5992 (free number) or send an email to jana.rueten@ems.eu.com. Many thanks in advance!

Of course you don't have to pay in order to take part in the study. We will pay every participant $650 as a small thank you. Let me know if that sounds like something you might be interested in. Details of the study: We are interested in talking with patients who have recently had bariatric surgery and who would be willing to participate in a 4-week study to give their feedback on the tools we are developing. We will be asking each participant to try these tools for 4 weeks. During the first week, we would ask each person to come to our office in West Newton, MA for 1 hour to enroll in the study and learn about the materials. We would then contact participants weekly through a short web survey, phone call, and email or text message to check in with them about how they’re doing and what the experience of using the materials is like for them. We expect that it will take participants about 1 hour per week to complete these activities. They will also spend some additional time using the materials on their own. During the final week, we will schedule an in-person interview in participant’s homes to get feedback on their overall experience with the program. This interview would take about 2.5 hours.
