Adherence to Multivitamin
32.9; 34.9

Summary

Additional micronutrient supplementation is required due to the changes in the gastrointestinal anatomy and physiology following bariatric surgery along with decreased dietary intake and rapid weight loss. Good adherence to post-operative vitamins is essential to maintain healthy vitamin levels in the body following bariatric surgery. The hypothesis of this study is that patients receiving a weekly survey intervention will have better adherence to post-operative vitamins.
