    Abstract

    Obesity is a common chronic condition, and general practitioners are seeking more effective strategies for assisting their patients. The therapeutic relationship between patients and practitioners is increasingly recognised as a fundamental part of intervention effectiveness. The influence of therapeutic relationships in obesity interventions in primary care has not been systematically studied. We plan to undertake a systematic review and meta-analysis to identify the influence of the therapeutic alliance on the effectiveness of obesity interventions in primary healthcare. The aim of this article is to outline the study protocol.
