al. \u003Cem\u003ESurg Obes Relat Dis.\u003C\/em\u003E 2008] included all of the previously identified micronutrients but was also broadened to include new information for sleeve gastrectomy- and bariatric surgery-related nutritional considerations. Macronutrients will be addressed in subsequent updates. The micronutrition update incorporates information from a systematic review of the pertinent literature with evidence-based recommendations, which followed the clinical practice guideline standards set by the Institute of Medicine, with the first 5 of the 8 standards having been accomplished to date. The 5 standards are as follows: establishing transparency of funding and process; disclosing conflicts of interest; establishing a balanced, multidisciplinary group composition; executing high-quality systematic reviews; and establishing an evidence foundation for and rate of strength of recommendation.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp id=\u0022p-4\u0022\u003EThe profession-based tools used included those of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics and the American Association of Clinical Endocrinologists.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp id=\u0022p-5\u0022\u003EQuestions posed for each nutrient addressed known pre- and postoperative risks of nutrient deficiency for planned or performed bariatric surgery, recommendations for preoperative screening, and recommendations to prevent and treat nutrient deficiencies after bariatric surgery.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cdiv class=\u0022section\u0022 id=\u0022sec-1\u0022\u003E\n         \u003Ch2 class=\u0022\u0022\u003EREPORT OF THE INTEGRATED HEALTH SUPPORT GROUPS COMMITTEE\u003C\/h2\u003E\n         \u003Cp id=\u0022p-6\u0022\u003EKellie Armstrong, RN, MS, Center for Bariatric Surgery at the Miriam Hospital, Providence, Rhode Island, USA, described the efforts of the Integrated Health Support Groups Committee to develop a manual directed at support groups for bariatric surgery patients. The process that began in 2012 has culminated in a draft document that was internally approved and is now being prepared for submission for publication.\u003C\/p\u003E\n         \u003Cp id=\u0022p-7\u0022\u003EThe manual is not intended to be static. Rather, the intent is to produce a resource document that will continue to change to reflect ongoing research and developments in support programs and patient needs. The development of the manual was driven by the recognition of the paucity of support group research specific to bariatric surgery patients, particularly the benefits that can be derived from support groups by patients. The hope is that the document will help stimulate research interest in the value of support groups for these patients.\u003C\/p\u003E\n         \u003Cp id=\u0022p-8\u0022\u003ESuggestions include support groups focused on patients before and after bariatric surgery, as well as combined pre- and\/or postsurgery support. Support groups that involve alternative approaches are encouraged. Suggested support group topics include physical health, emotional health, nutrition-related health, and health derived from social interactions and relationships.\u003C\/p\u003E\n         \u003Cp id=\u0022p-9\u0022\u003ESupport groups rely on patient involvement and continued enthusiasm. Multiple efforts were suggested to promote and nurture these aims. These efforts include providing information and promoting discussion of emerging technologies, facilitating active involvement of patients in the groups, respecting patient privacy and confidentiality, defining the role of the support group facilitator, incorporating special events into group activities, anticipating and taking steps to ensure a productive group dynamic, considering the group size that is most conducive to participation, accounting for the physical location and design of the room housing the group, and facilitating productive utilization of survey information.\u003C\/p\u003E\n         \u003Cp id=\u0022p-10\u0022\u003ECurrent research considerations include psychotherapy vs support groups, patient benefits separate from the perspective of weight, patient self-reported information, and research on the support group process.\u003C\/p\u003E\n      \u003C\/div\u003E\u003Cdiv class=\u0022section\u0022 id=\u0022sec-2\u0022\u003E\n         \u003Ch2 class=\u0022\u0022\u003EUPDATE On THE GUIDELINES\u003C\/h2\u003E\n         \u003Cp id=\u0022p-11\u0022\u003EPam Davis, RN, CBN, MBA, TriStar Centennial Center for the Treatment of Obesity, Nashville, Tennessee, USA, provided a more general overview of the guideline development process considering those guidelines currently being formulated, with the hope of stimulating involvement in guideline formulation by the ASMBS community.\u003C\/p\u003E\n         \u003Cp id=\u0022p-12\u0022\u003EA guideline begins with an idea, a perception of the absence of guidance, and the need for the particular guideline. The next step is the submission of the suggestion to the Integrated Health Executive Council or Integrated Health Clinical Issues and Guidelines Committee (IHCIGC). An IHCIGC review determines whether the submission has merit. If so, the submission is further investigated ad hoc or by a subcommittee, which involves a literature review and summary, identification of the best strategy for the particular issue, and solicitation of expert opinion.\u003C\/p\u003E\n         \u003Cp id=\u0022p-13\u0022\u003EAs the document is formulated, a review process involves a continuing back-and-forth exchange, first between the formulation committee and the IHCIGC. The next step is submission to the chair of the Clinical Issue Committee of the full committee, followed by legal input. After review by the Executive Council, the views of the full membership are sought. All steps involve exchanges with the formulation committee and revisions of the document as needed.\u003C\/p\u003E\n         \u003Cp id=\u0022p-14\u0022\u003EAs an example, Ms Davis described one guideline that concerns guideline sensitivity training. The process began with a survey of the membership that yielded approximately 400 responses. Respondents were queried on the how, who, when, and where aspects of sensitivity training. Germane issues included the frequency of follow-up training, how long the sensitivity training should be to adequately cover all topics while not overwhelming the audience, the core content, the presenter (a person with direct clinical experience treating obese patients), the target audience, and the presentation format (eg, in person, web based).\u003C\/p\u003E\n         \u003Cp id=\u0022p-15\u0022\u003EIt was agreed that the core content should involve definitions of overweight, obesity, and severe obesity, as well as comorbidities associated with obesity, prevalence of obesity, causes of and\/or contributing factors to obesity, role of the health care provider, and the RESPECT model of patient care devised by the National Association of Bariatric Nurses (\u003Ca id=\u0022xref-table-wrap-1-1\u0022 class=\u0022xref-table\u0022 href=\u0022#T1\u0022\u003ETable 1\u003C\/a\u003E) [Bejciy-Spring SM. \u003Cem\u003EBariatr Nurs Surg Patient Care\u003C\/em\u003E. 2008].\u003C\/p\u003E\n         \u003Cdiv id=\u0022T1\u0022 class=\u0022table pos-float\u0022\u003E\u003Cdiv class=\u0022table-inline\u0022\u003E\u003Cdiv class=\u0022callout\u0022\u003E\u003Cspan\u003EView this table:\u003C\/span\u003E\u003Cul class=\u0022callout-links\u0022\u003E\u003Cli class=\u00220 first\u0022\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0022\/\u0022 class=\u0022table-expand-inline\u0022 data-table-url=\u0022\/highwire\/markup\/15552\/expansion?postprocessors=highwire_figures%2Chighwire_math%2Chighwire_inline_linked_media%2Chighwire_embed\u0026amp;table-expand-inline=1\u0022 html=\u00221\u0022 fragment=\u0022#\u0022 external=\u00221\u0022 data-icon-position=\u0022\u0022 data-hide-link-title=\u00220\u0022\u003EView inline\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/li\u003E\u003Cli class=\u00221\u0022\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0022\/highwire\/markup\/15552\/expansion?width=1000\u0026amp;height=500\u0026amp;iframe=true\u0026amp;postprocessors=highwire_figures%2Chighwire_math%2Chighwire_inline_linked_media\u0022 class=\u0022colorbox colorbox-load table-expand-popup\u0022 rel=\u0022gallery-fragment-tables\u0022 data-icon-position=\u0022\u0022 data-hide-link-title=\u00220\u0022\u003EView popup\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/li\u003E\u003Cli class=\u00222 last\u0022\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0022\/highwire\/powerpoint\/15552\u0022 class=\u0022highwire-figure-link highwire-figure-link-ppt\u0022 data-icon-position=\u0022\u0022 data-hide-link-title=\u00220\u0022\u003EDownload powerpoint\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/li\u003E\u003C\/ul\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E\u003Cdiv class=\u0022table-caption\u0022\u003E\u003Cspan class=\u0022table-label\u0022\u003ETable 1.\u003C\/span\u003E \n               \u003Cp id=\u0022p-16\u0022 class=\u0022first-child\u0022\u003EThe RESPECT Model of Patient Care\u003C\/p\u003E\n            \u003Cdiv class=\u0022sb-div caption-clear\u0022\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E\n         \u003Cp id=\u0022p-19\u0022\u003EGuideline development is followed by implementation.
