  Title Morbidly obese patients' experiences of mobility during hospitalisation Type Journal Article
  Year 2018 Publication Nursing Praxis in New Zealand Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 34 Issue 1 Pages 20-31  
  Keywords Morbid Obesity; Mobility; Bariatric care; Hospitalisation; Rehabilitation  
  Abstract Examines the mobility experiences and needs of morbidly-obese patients before and during hospital admission. Undertakes semi-structured interviews with seven morbidly obese patients. Identifies two categories of mobility problems: 'compromised pre-existing mobility', with a subcategory of 'accessing services prior to admission' and 'mobilisation difficulties during hospitalisation', with a subcategory of 'dissonance between dependency and need for assistance'. Recommends bariatric-care pathways for the morbidly-obese patient.
