Clinical Trial Summary

The proposed project will test an implementation strategy (the "TrailGuide") for delivering an existing model of pediatric obesity treatment ("Fit Together") that has demonstrated ability to meet published recommendations for improving health outcomes of children with obesity.


Clinical Trial Description

Evidence-based treatment for childhood obesity exists, yet a fundamental knowledge-to-action gap has significantly limited the uptake of recommendations into clinical practice, particularly in low-income settings. Persistence of this gap represents a large-scale public health threat, as the earliest generation of children living through the obesity epidemic now enters adulthood, they are the first in US history to have a shorter life expectancy than their parents, mainly due to rising rates of obesity-related cancers and cardiovascular disease. A central challenge in delivering recommended treatment is the intensity; ≥26 hours of face-to-face contact are necessary to achieve health benefits and risk reduction. The objective of the proposed project is to develop and test an implementation strategy that pairs primary care pediatric clinics with the municipal Parks and Recreation (P&R) centers to deliver the current treatment recommendations with high fidelity, while allowing ;
