Clear, up-to-date guidance for professionals working with children
with obesity One in every six children, and more in some ethnic
groups, are obese, which can lead to serious health problems in
adulthood. Successful treatment of young patients is complex,
requiring time-intensive, evidence-based care delivered by a
multidisciplinary team. Help is at hand with this well written,
compact book by leading experts, which gives health professionals a
clear overview of the current scientific knowledge on childhood
obesity, from causality models and diagnosis to prevention and
treatment. In particular, the authors outline a family-based
treatment method which is best supported by the evidence and meets
the recommendations of the American Academy of Pediatrics and other
organizations. The appendix provides the clinician with hands-on
tools: a session plan, a pretreatment assessment form,
self-monitoring forms, and a meal planning and physical activity
worksheet. This book is essential reading for anyone who works with
children and their families, equipping them to guide patients to
appropriate and effective treatment.
