Study Summary

This trial will develop an accessible tech-based intervention for people who've had bariatric surgery to reduce their risk of developing an alcohol use disorder. It involves motivational interviewing, tailored text messaging, and assessments to gauge effectiveness.

Who is the study for?

This trial is for individuals who had bariatric surgery 3-6 months ago and haven't drunk alcohol since the surgery. It aims to help them avoid developing an alcohol use disorder, which can be a risk after such procedures due to changes in how their bodies handle alcohol.Check my eligibility

What is being tested?

The study tests a two-part intervention: a computerized brief intervention (CBI) based on motivational interviewing, plus six months of follow-up text messages tailored to each patient's readiness to change their drinking habits. The goal is to see if this tech-based approach is practical and well-received by patients post-surgery.See study design

What are the potential side effects?

Since the interventions involve counseling and text messaging support rather than medication or medical procedures, there are no direct physical side effects expected from participating in this clinical trial.
