FITLINE: Pediatric Practice-based Obesity Intervention to Support Families

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

The goal of this study is to investigate whether eight weekly telephone coaching sessions or materials on lifestyle interventions can be beneficial for overweight and obese 8-12 year olds.

Clinical Trial Description

The proposed five-year cluster randomized controlled pediatric practice-based trial will compare the effectiveness of two practice-based interventions on improving diet and physical activity and reducing BMI among overweight and obese 8-12 year olds seen in pediatric practice: (1) Fitline-Coaching, consisting of a pediatric practice-based component plus Fitline counseling and workbook, or (2) Fitline-Workbook, consisting of the same practice-based component, but only the family workbook materials mailed over 8 weeks, with no referral to Fitline coaching. Sixteen pediatric primary care practices will be randomized to either the Fitline-Coaching (N=8) or the Fitline-Materials (N=8) condition. Five hundred and twelve parents and their children ages 8-12 with a body mass index (BMI) of > 85th percentile (overweight or obese) will be recruited from the practices to achieve N=400 at 12 month follow-up. ;
