American Academy of Pediatrics releases the first clinical practice guideline for evaluating and treating childhood obesity AmerAcadPeds Guidelines Childhood Obesity ChildhoodObesity
Clinical practice guideline Obesity is a prevalent chronic pediatric disease that has social, genetic, physiological, environmental, and economic contributors. Close to 15 million youths in the United States suffer from obesity, which also has short and long-term consequences on mental and physical health.
Additionally, key action statements have also been provided in the clinical practice guideline to diagnose common comorbidities such as hypertension, type 2 diabetes, dyslipidemia, and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. In addition to a wide range of other obesity-associated comorbidities, the guideline also provides consensus recommendations for the evaluation and management of these comorbidities.
Bariatric surgery, including vertical sleeve gastrectomy and laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, should be offered to adolescents with severe obesity based on the evaluation. Both techniques have shown sustained weight loss and improvements in comorbidities. The implementation also involves fostering partnerships between healthcare organizations, communities, and public health organizations to improve access to community resources and evidence-based treatments to address social determinants of obesity. Additionally, training programs for healthcare providers to improve their knowledge and understanding of obesity-related issues are also necessary.
