NCT ID: NCT04661449 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Childhood Overweight

Effects of Lifestyle Intervention on Childhood Outcomes in LGA Infants

Start date: January 22, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Large-for-gestational-age (LGA) infants have a higher risk of metabolic disease later in life, and their postnatal growth in early childhood may be associated with long-term adverse outcomes. The purpose of this study is to explore whether comprehensive lifestyle intervention in the first year after birth in LGA infants will reduce the rate of overweight/obesity at childhood and improve neurodevelopmental outcomes and its possible mechanism.

NCT ID: NCT01281436 Recruiting - Childhood Obesity Clinical Trials

Health Information Technology to Support Clinical Decision Making in Obesity Care

Start date: October 2010
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to address priority Research Area 3 in PAR-08-270: Health information technology (HIT) to improve health care decision making through the use of integrated data and knowledge management. The proposed study will evaluate the use of HIT for clinician decision support and tailored patient education on the implementation of the current guidelines for the prevention of obesity-related chronic conditions in health disparity populations of poor, minority youth who access care through SBHCs. The specific aims are: 1. To evaluate the effectiveness of web-based training with and without computerized clinical decision support on provider's process and outcome behaviors related to implementing the current guidelines for prevention of obesity and related conditions. a. Process variables include the following: i. Provider knowledge, attitudes, and barriers to implementing the guidelines. ii. Parent perception of the interpersonal process of care (i.e., provider communication, collaborative decision making, and interpersonal style). iii. Parent perception of provider support for their child's healthy eating and exercise. b. Behavior outcomes include the following: i. Provider self-reported behaviors of identification and assessment of overweight, counseling on nutrition and physical activity, use of behavioral interventions, referrals, and cultural competency. ii. Documentation by chart review of body mass index (BMI) percentile for age and sex; appropriate diagnosis when BMI > 85th percentile; blood pressure (BP) percentile for age, height, and sex; and ordering appropriate laboratory tests when indicated. 2. To explore the role of HIT in the processes of system change for implementation of the guidelines for prevention of obesity and related conditions, including the facilitators, barriers, and impact of the care model on change.

NCT ID: NCT00916318 Recruiting - Childhood Obesity Clinical Trials

Childhood Overweight

Start date: August 2008
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

To evaluate the effects of a family-based intervention program intended for parents of pre-school children (4-6 y) with overweight and obesity (according to Cole et al), and to investigate if treatment has an effect on metabolic parameters. In a randomised controlled trial evaluate the three separate family based intervention programs and to investigate if treatment has an effect by correlating the parameters described above with BMI, before and after the intervention program.
