Childhood Obesity Clinical Trial
— HFOfficial title:
Promoting Healthy Families Through Enhanced Primary Care
A primary care approach to obesity prevention will be developed and tested in a randomized trial in 4 pediatric primary care practices. Enhanced screening for obesity risks and prompts for effective counseling at well visits of 4 to 10 year olds will be developed utilizing hand held technology( PDAs). The impact on the content and quality of clinician counseling will be assessed in exit survey prior to and after implementation. Among families interested in making a change to address nutrition or activity risk reported on the screener a cohort with children > BMI 85% will be recruited. They will be randomized to mailed tailored supports to level of readiness to change versus a single generic informational mailing. The hypotheses are that 1)families that receive the enhanced office visit with screening will be more likely to plan to make changes compared to usual care; and 2) families receiving the tailored post visit supports will be less likely to gain weight than controls after 6 months.
