In the United States…
• Childhood obesity has more than doubled in children and quadrupled in adolescents in the past 30 years.
• The percentage of children aged 6–11 years in the United States who were obese increased from 7% in 1980 to nearly 18% in 2012.
• Similarly, the percentage of adolescents aged 12–19 years who were obese increased from 5% to nearly 21% over the same period.
• In 2012, more than one third of children and adolescents were overweight or obese.

A.A.P. Stages of Obesity Prevention and Treatment
Barlow SE and the Expert Committee. Pediatrics 2007;120;S164-S192
Stages Description
1. Prevention Plus First step to focus on basic healthy lifestyle habits
2. Structured Weight Management • Specific nutrition and exercise goals are established
• Behaviors are monitored on a monthly basis
3. Comprehensive Multidisciplinary Intervention
Increases the specialists involved to maximize support for behavior changes
4. Tertiary Care Intervention • Offered to severely obese children • May include medication, low-calorie
diets, surgery
![Page 10: Identifying, Treating and Preventing the Disease of ... · Risk Factors of Childhood Obesity • High blood pressure and high cholesterol, which are risk factors for cardiovascular](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022052100/6039c1f0232301571e1e1c2b/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)

Risk Factors of Childhood Obesity
• High blood pressure and high cholesterol, which are risk factors for
cardiovascular disease (CVD). In one study, 70% of obese children had at least one CVD risk factor, and 39% had two or more.
• Increased risk of impaired glucose tolerance, insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes.
• Breathing problems, such as sleep apnea, and asthma as well as joint problems and musculoskeletal discomfort. • GI diseases such as liver disease, gallstones, and gastro-esophageal
reflux (i.e., heartburn). • Psychological stress such as depression, behavioral problems, and
issues in school. Low self-esteem and low self-reported quality of life. Impaired social, physical, and emotional functioning.
![Page 12: Identifying, Treating and Preventing the Disease of ... · Risk Factors of Childhood Obesity • High blood pressure and high cholesterol, which are risk factors for cardiovascular](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022052100/6039c1f0232301571e1e1c2b/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Lead to Consequences Later…
• Children who are obese are more likely to become obese adults.
• Adult obesity is associated with a number of serious health conditions including heart disease, diabetes, metabolic syndrome, and cancer.
• If children are obese, obesity and disease risk factors in adulthood are likely to be more severe.

Does the CHP program work?
• Results published in 2010 found:
• 52% decrease in BMI percentile (Adult programs report an average of 2 - 20% decrease in weight after 1 year.)
• Quality of life improves as measured by the patient and family in the families with weight loss (6.83 fold improvement) after 12 months.
• Program satisfaction after 3 months 93%, and after 12 months 86%.

Motivational Interviewing in the Clinical Setting
Collecting Information While Empowering the Family
to Succeed
![Page 25: Identifying, Treating and Preventing the Disease of ... · Risk Factors of Childhood Obesity • High blood pressure and high cholesterol, which are risk factors for cardiovascular](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022052100/6039c1f0232301571e1e1c2b/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
This is not motivational interviewing: “What fits your busy schedule better? Exercising one hour a day or being dead 24
hours per day?”
![Page 26: Identifying, Treating and Preventing the Disease of ... · Risk Factors of Childhood Obesity • High blood pressure and high cholesterol, which are risk factors for cardiovascular](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022052100/6039c1f0232301571e1e1c2b/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Motivational Interviewing is…
a collaborative, person-centered form of guiding to elicit and strengthen motivation for change.
![Page 27: Identifying, Treating and Preventing the Disease of ... · Risk Factors of Childhood Obesity • High blood pressure and high cholesterol, which are risk factors for cardiovascular](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022052100/6039c1f0232301571e1e1c2b/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
The way in which you talk with your patients about their health can substantially influence their personal
motivation for behavior change. - Rollnick, Miller & Butler, 2008
![Page 28: Identifying, Treating and Preventing the Disease of ... · Risk Factors of Childhood Obesity • High blood pressure and high cholesterol, which are risk factors for cardiovascular](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022052100/6039c1f0232301571e1e1c2b/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Four MI Principles Resist the righting reflex
P: I just don’t think our family has time for all these changes right now.
C: You feel overwhelmed by all of this, and you’re wondering what changes can fit into your life.
Understand your patient’s motivation
C: Making changes can be overwhelming, but when you think about how it could benefit your family, you feel encouraged.
Listen to your patient
C: I hear what you’re saying. You have some concerns about how to make these changes work for your family.
Empower your patient
C: You are ready to commit to a healthier lifestyle. When you have made commitments in the past, you have been successful.

Or think of it this way…
• Doing motivational interviewing with someone else is like entering their home. One should enter with respect, interest and kindness, affirm what is good and refrain from providing unsolicited advice about how to arrange the furniture.
• Kamilla Venner
![Page 38: Identifying, Treating and Preventing the Disease of ... · Risk Factors of Childhood Obesity • High blood pressure and high cholesterol, which are risk factors for cardiovascular](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022052100/6039c1f0232301571e1e1c2b/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Forms to organize your visit
• Long form for an hour interview and motivational session is included in your packet along with references.
• If you develop a patient questionnaire to be filled out before your visit, it can lead you to the issues the family sees as important.
• A detailed food intake record can also help you identify areas of concern BUT it often makes the family defensive if you dwell on it.

Points to Remember
• Practices must be ready to implement the program, and have the infrastructure to support it.
• Physician referral and advocacy of the program is vital.
• Success of children and families is highly influenced by motivation to change. Not all children or families are ready to engage in a weight management program.
• Behavior change is a key indicator of success and tracking this can be difficult if families do not return for follow-up visits.
• Visible indicators of success, such as change in weight, can be difficult to attain in children.

Statistics for Childhood Obesity from the CDC
• Childhood obesity is associated with adult head of household’s education level for some children
• Childhood obesity among preschoolers is more prevalent among those from lower-income families
![Page 73: Identifying, Treating and Preventing the Disease of ... · Risk Factors of Childhood Obesity • High blood pressure and high cholesterol, which are risk factors for cardiovascular](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022052100/6039c1f0232301571e1e1c2b/html5/thumbnails/73.jpg)
Poverty better predictor than race in childhood obesity
• A statistical model, based on information from more than 110,000 Massachusetts students, found that as children's family income dropped, rates of childhood obesity went up.
• Although the study found a link between poverty and childhood obesity, it didn't prove a cause-and-effect relationship.
• The study was published Jan. 7, 2016 in the journal Childhood Obesity.
![Page 74: Identifying, Treating and Preventing the Disease of ... · Risk Factors of Childhood Obesity • High blood pressure and high cholesterol, which are risk factors for cardiovascular](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022052100/6039c1f0232301571e1e1c2b/html5/thumbnails/74.jpg)

Environmental factors fueling this epidemic
![Page 76: Identifying, Treating and Preventing the Disease of ... · Risk Factors of Childhood Obesity • High blood pressure and high cholesterol, which are risk factors for cardiovascular](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022052100/6039c1f0232301571e1e1c2b/html5/thumbnails/76.jpg)
Advertising
• Nearly half of U.S. middle and high schools allow advertising of less healthy foods, which impacts students' ability to make healthy food choices.
• In addition, foods high in total calories, sugars, salt, and fat, and low in nutrients are highly advertised and marketed through media targeted to children and adolescents.
• Advertising for healthier foods is almost nonexistent in comparison.
![Page 77: Identifying, Treating and Preventing the Disease of ... · Risk Factors of Childhood Obesity • High blood pressure and high cholesterol, which are risk factors for cardiovascular](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022052100/6039c1f0232301571e1e1c2b/html5/thumbnails/77.jpg)
Community Environment
• Half of the children in the United States do not have a park, community center, and sidewalk in their neighborhood.
• Only 27 states have policies directing community-scale design.
• One study showed that each additional hour spent in a car per day was associated with a 6% increase in the likelihood of obesity. Conversely, each additional kilometer walked per day was associated with a 4.8% reduction in the likelihood of obesity.
![Page 78: Identifying, Treating and Preventing the Disease of ... · Risk Factors of Childhood Obesity • High blood pressure and high cholesterol, which are risk factors for cardiovascular](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022052100/6039c1f0232301571e1e1c2b/html5/thumbnails/78.jpg)
Energy Dense Foods and Beverages
• Sugar sweetened beverages are the largest source of added sugar and an important contributor of calories in the diets of children in the United States.
• High consumption of sugar sweetened beverages, which have few, if any, nutrients, has been associated with obesity.
• On a typical day, 80% of children and teens drink sugar sweetened beverages.
