Family Inclusive Childhood Obesity Treatment Designed for Low Income and Hispanic Families
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating The Healthy Living Program/La Vida Saludable and Recommended Treatment of Obesity in Primary Care for Pediatric Obesity and 6 related conditions. Active but no longer recruiting, targeting 554 participants across 2 sites.
Detailed Summary
This study is a type-1 hybrid effectiveness-implementation RCT comparing a novel family-inclusive childhood obesity treatment program, the "Healthy Living Program" (HeLP), to a protocol that enhances usual primary care to deliver Recommended Treatment of Obesity in Primary Care (RTOP). Children with obesity and their families will be referred to the study by primary care providers and randomized to HeLP or RTOP. The clinical setting is a practice-based research network serving majority Hispanic and Medicaid-insured populations. The intensive phase and booster sessions of HeLP will take place at recreation centers located near the clinics and will be led by health educators employed by the clinics. Visits with primary care providers (PCPs) for HeLP maintenance or RTOP will occur at the clinics.
