Childhood Obesity Clinical Trial
Official title:
Value and Mechanisms of Home Visitation in Obesity Interventions for Low-income Children
Pediatric obesity interventions for low-income populations are increasingly delivered in children's homes, which may make treatment more accessible to families and enhance the potency of the intervention in several ways. This randomized trial will directly test whether delivering family-based behavioral interventions for pediatric overweight/obesity in the home setting improves weight loss outcomes in low-income children relative to medical center-based treatment. The trial will also quantify the cost-effectiveness of home visitation, and explore the mechanisms accounting for observed treatment effects
The goal of this project is to systematically evaluate the incremental weight loss benefit and cost-effectiveness of delivering standard family-based treatment for pediatric overweight/obesity in the home setting vs. traditional medical settings. In a randomized controlled trial involving low-income households, 266 children ages 6-11 years will be allocated to 12 months of family-based treatment delivered either in their home or at an urban academic medical center. Both arms will receive the same intervention content and dosage, and differ only in the location of in-person treatment sessions. Aim 1 is to test the hypothesis that home-based treatment produces a greater reduction in child adiposity, reflected in 12-month change in BMI z-score. Aim 2 is to compare the cost-effectiveness of home-based treatment to medical center-based treatment, and calculate the added cost of the incremental weight loss benefit associated with home visitation. These data will inform efforts to disseminate home-based interventions for low-income populations by public health agencies and third-party payers. Aim 3 is to explore specific mechanisms through which home visitation may improve weight loss outcomes. ;
