1 Childhood Obesity MODULE 4
2 Objectives: 1) Identify co-morbidities associated with childhood overweight and obesity and their effects into adulthood 2) Define overweight and obesity using the WHO growth charts for Canada 3) Describe the many factors that may influence a child s food intake and physical activity pattern, and thus weight status 4) Understand the current recommendations on how to screen and identify children at-risk for obesity
3 Childhood Obesity
4 Childhood Obesity a BIG problem Physically: Increased likelihood of obesity in adulthood Increased risk of: Type 2 Diabetes Hyperlipidemia High blood pressure Orthopaedic problems Obstructive sleep apnea Early menarche (Deckelbaum and Williams, 2001 and Centre for Disease Control and Prevention, 2011)
5 Childhood Obesity a BIG problem Psychosocial issues: Depression Anxiety Lack of self-esteem Body image issues (Ebbeling et al, 2002 and Warschburger, 2005)
6 Childhood Obesity a BIG problem Stereotyped as: Unhealthy Academically unsuccessful Socially inept Unhygienic Lazy Lacking self-control and poor self-restraint (Ebbeling et al, 2002 and Warschburger, 2005)
7 REFLECTION: A number of studies have shown that the negative views or stereotypes that one may have on overweight people persist beyond training into professional life. How do you think this would affect our interactions with our clients, even before any kind of treatment is considered? How might this impact the care we provide?
8 Defining childhood overweight and obesity with the WHO growth charts for Canada Providing a piece of the puzzle

16 Population Health Promotion (PHP) Model Childhood Obesity
17 REFLECTION: Thinking of the EST model and the Population Health Promotion model, what are some of the modifiable factors that you currently address in your practice? What are some of the more difficult factors to address in your practice setting?
18 Curbing Childhood Obesity A Federal, Provincial and Territorial Framework for Action to Promote Healthy Weights
19 3 integrated strategies 1) Making childhood overweight and obesity a collective priority for action 2) Coordinating efforts on 3 key policy priorities a) Supportive environments b) Early action c) Nutritious foods 3) Measuring and reporting on collective progress
20 Prevention strategies Pre and Post-natal support for breastfeeding Dietary changes Physical activity (age appropriate) Behaviour and social modifications Family participation
21 Clinical treatment focus Behaviour change to achieve energy balance Possible pharmacological treatment Possible surgical treatment
22 Involve parents and caregivers Start prenatally Focus away from the child
23 REFLECTION: Why would you think that focusing our strategies away from the child may be beneficial?
24 Breastfeeding and obesity Preventative measure Breastfed infants gain predominantly more lean body mass (Dewey, 2003) Breast milk contains the hormones leptin and adiponectin which help infants regulate appetite and energy metabolism (Li et al., 2008)
25 Dietary strategies Exclusive breastfeeding for 6 months, and appropriate addition of complimentary foods with continued breastfeeding to 2 years and beyond Reducing energy dense foods is more effective than strict avoidance (Edmunds et al., 2001) Nutritional quality is essential, not just calories (Ebbeling et al., 2002)
26 Physical activity Increase energy expenditure Increase active play Increase opportunity to be active with daily living Reduce sedentary behaviours Limit screen time Ensure adequate sleep
27 Summary Key Practice Points 1) While not a diagnostic tool, the cut-offs for the WHO Growth Charts for Canada can be used to identify children at potential risk for overweight and obesity 2) There are many factors beyond an individual s control that influence energy intake and expenditure 3) Family participation is of crucial importance when addressing a child s health promoting behaviours 4) Breastfeeding is a preventative measure for childhood obesity
