ELIPSE: Early Life Intervention in Pediatrics Supported by E-health Coaching of Parents to Improve the Health of Overweight Children
Résumé de l'étude
Children, adolescents, and adults with obesity have a higher risk of non-communicable diseases (for example, cardiovascular diseases, chronic respiratory diseases). Early preventive measures that address specific lifestyle characteristics can prevent the development of these diseases. In this research project, we want to find out whether a smartphone application we developed (short form App) leads to lifestyle changes. The app has been developed according to evidence-based recommendations regarding usability and content and is aimed at parents. The goal is to provoke behavioral changes in parents that affect their children's nutrition and physical activity. Additionally, we want to investigate whether these changes impact the children's health. Parents of 6-12 year old children with obesity (BMI > 97th percentile) who attend the obesity clinic at the Children's Hospital in Bern can participate. Participation in the study involves the child and one parent/guardian. Participants will be randomly assigned to the group with an active app in addition to standard treatment (intervention group) or the group without an app (only with standard treatment). In the intervention group, parents/guardians will be coached for 20 weeks using the developed app to improve the child's nutrition and physical activity. Additional surveys and examinations will be conducted on all participating children during 3 treatment appointments at the obesity clinic: at the start, at the end of the intervention, and 24 weeks after completion. At the same time, parents/guardians will fill out questionnaires and will be asked via the app about their child's physical activity and nutrition. The results of this study contribute to the prevention of the development of common non-communicable diseases.
