Motivational Wellness Coaching to Reduce Childhood Obesity in Families and Kids (NCT05143697)
Integrated Motivational Interviewing to Reduce Childhood Obesity in a Large Health Maintenance Organization
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
Primary care settings lack interventions to address the childhood obesity epidemic that are feasible and sustainable without requiring significant resources. The investigators propose to modify and test an intervention shown to lower children's body mass index(BMI) so that it is feasible, sustainable, and easily disseminated in a real-world clinical setting. If successful, the investigators will be able to provide recommendations to providers and health care systems that help prioritize future intervention strategies and research investments to reduce obesity in children that can be quickly translated into other settings and widely adopted after the study period, with the goal of halting and reversing the childhood obesity epidemic.
