Meetings

To standardize Quality of Life measures we think it is essential to achieve consensus with all who are involved. Therefore, we organize consensus meetings with both people living with obesity as well as healthcare providers.

S.Q.O.T. symposium ECO 2023

On the 17th of May 2023 S.Q.O.T. will present a symposium at the ECO conference in Dublin with the title:

The S.Q.O.T. III meeting was held in Maastricht, the Netherlands, on the 2nd and 3rd of May 2022. A standard set of PROMs to measure quality of life in obesity treatment was defined (for research and clinical practice).

We are currently working on the meeting summary and scientific publication.

S.Q.O.T. II Meeting

The S.Q.O.T. II meeting was held online. The goal of this meeting was to decide on the final selection of PROMs to measure quality of life in research for treatment of obesity.

 

We are currently working on the scientific publication of this meeting.

The S.Q.O.T. I meeting was held in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, on the 1st and 2nd of September 2019 and focussed on moving towards consensus on the preferred patient-reported outcome measure to assess quality of life in people living with obesity.
