Abstract:

Obesity is a costly and complex health issue that precipitates and/or complicates many medical conditions. Clinical recommendations include a comprehensive approach to weight loss with a combination of diet, physical activity, behavioral interventions, pharmacotherapy or surgery to achieve weight loss. Care in the primary care setting is integral in obesity management. Outside of their clinical role, primary care physicians serve as role models, educators, and promoters of healthy lifestyle practices and leaders in obesity treatment. Physician recommendations have consistently been shown to ex

Abstract:

The prevalence of obesity is continuously increasing in Germany. Only one third of German adult inhabitants exhibits a desirable body weight. However, there is still a discrepancy between both formerly separated countries of Germany. The prevalence of obesity is higher in the eastern part, the former German Democratic Republic (DDR). Also, the increase in obesity (BMI > 30) in men and women was somewhat higher in the eastern part. The main intention of prevention of overweight is stabilizing or moderately reducing body weight by lowering energy intake and by increasing physical activity. Al

Abstract:

Background: Efficacious pediatric weight management (PWM) programs have existed for over two decades, but there is limited evidence that these programs have been translated into regular practice. There is even less evidence that they have reached communities experiencing health disparities where access to care is limited. The purpose of this project was to use a community-engaged approach to select an evidence-based PWM program that could be delivered with the available resources in a community that is experiencing health disparities.

Abstract:

Obesity is the most common nutritional disorder affecting children in the developed world. The marked increase in prevalence is linked to environmental and behavioural changes; children’s energy expenditure has undoubtedly decreased. Obese children often become obese adults; children from lower socioeconomic groups are more likely to be obese. Obesity is a risk factor for ischaemic heart disease, hypertension, stroke, type 2 diabetes, depression, and certain cancers. There is no proven preventive strategy but limiting time in front of computer and TV screens appears important. Obese children a

Abstract:

In this chapter, state of the art in mHealth solutions for monitoring and treatment of children suffering from obesity is presented and discussed. mHealth solutions are used for self-management, remote monitoring, and counseling of several chronic conditions including diabetes mellitus, heart failure, Parkinson's disease, etc. Concerning childhood obesity, those solutions can combine targeted games and motivational approaches towards both physical activity and diet, which could help in addressing this serious and global health issue in the direction of minimizing co-morbidities and eventually preventing serious, life-threatening events. Management of obese children requires behavior change. Multi-component intervention programs via a mobile platform can play a significant role in weight control during childhood and adolescence. In continuation of the chapter, the authors report on the newest advances in the field of digital health interventions addressing childhood obesity.

Abstract:

Childhood obesity rates are on the rise worldwide. Considering the significant health and economic costs associated with obesity, emphasis must be placed on addressing this public health dilemma from both preventive and treatment perspectives. Evidence-based parent-centered interventions are an effective way to target obesity in children. Parents play a central role in a child’s lifestyle habits. However, parental recruitment and engagement remains problematic. This challenge must be addressed from a population health framework if improvements in childhood obesity rates are to be achieved. This chapter provides a framework for the prevention and management of childhood obesity from a public health perspective. The need for a population approach to evidence-based parenting programs is advocated to shift population-level rates of obesity. The existing research base for such an approach is discussed, along with future directions for clinical practice and research.

Abstract:

In 2014, almost 2 billion adults had overweight or obesity, and prevalence continues to increase. The fundamental cause of obesity is an imbalance between energy expenditure and intake, but determinants of these behaviours are complex. Obesity is one of the most important preventable causes of morbidity and mortality, and its control is one of the most pressing issues facing modern health care systems. Primary prevention is vital, but many of the health risks can be mitigated by weight loss. There has been considerable progress in weight management interventions for adults, including behavioural programmes, pharmacotherapy, and surgeries, but management in children and adolescents remains more challenging. Weight regain post-intervention is common, and obesity needs to be managed as a chronic, relapsing condition with individual-level interventions offered on repeated occasions. Population-level interventions to curb the environmental drivers of obesity are important for primary prevention and to reinforce individual-level actions for weight control.
