About this study

Official title: Efficacy Study on Nursing Consultation in Weight and Metabolic Syndrome Management Based on the Carbohydrate-insulin Theory in Individuals with First-episode Psychosis (MetaKOP)

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate if a nursing intervention based on the carbohydrate-insulin model can effectively reduce weight and manage the risk of metabolic syndrome (MetS) in individuals with first-episode psychosis. The main questions it aims to answer are:

Will the intervention lead to a clinically significant weight loss (≥5%)? Can the intervention improve metabolic parameters, psychopathological state, physical activity level, and quality of life? Researchers will compare participants receiving the specialized nursing consultations to those receiving routine care to see if the former group experiences greater improvements in weight loss and metabolic risk reduction.

Participants will:

Attend a series of 8 nursing consultations focused on dietary habits based on the carbohydrate-insulin model and physical activity.

Complete assessments at the start, 6 months, and 12 months, including weight, metabolic parameters, and psychological evaluations.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
InterventionExperimentalThe intervention consists of 8 nursing consultations with a mental health nurse trained in healthy habits for individuals with psychosis. During the first 2 months, 4 consultations will focus on dietary habits based on the carbohydrate-insulin theory and physical activity, following a guide developed by experts, incorporating recommendations from the American Diabetes Association. Visits 5 and 6 occur at 3 and 4 months; visit 7 at 6 months to evaluate effectiveness, and visit 8 at 12 months. Weight will be monitored throughout. Assessments at baseline, 6, and 12 months will include labs, vital signs, and scales for psychopathology, quality of life, and activity level. Each session covers key topics, from intervention goals to diet tips and physical activity. The approach is flexible, aiming for gradual habit integration, supported by a therapeutic relationship. Phone reminders will enhance adherence.
Receives: Behavioral: Nursing Consultation in Weight Management and Metabolic syndrome
ControlNo interventionCcontrol group will continue their usual follow-up within the EIP, attending consultations with their reference psychiatrist and receiving pharmacological or psychotherapeutic treatment as they did before the intervention. The control group will not receive any specific nursing consultations (beyond the administration of long-acting injectable antipsychotics where appropriate) or dietary or lifestyle advice during the follow-up. If patients in the control group require treatment or assistance for metabolic problems, they will be referred to primary care or endocrinology professionals, as was done previous to the intervention implementation.
