NCT04406441Completed
Patient-Clinic-Community Integration to Prevent Obesity Among Rural Preschool Children
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 5 Mar 2025
Brief summary (registry, in English)
The goal of this research study is to compare two enhancements to well-child visits at Geisinger designed to promote family-centered counseling for the prevention of obesity in a high-risk population of rural, lower income, preschool-aged children. Compared to the standard well-child visit, enhancements will offer advantages to obesity prevention, parent involvement in counseling, lifestyle behaviors, and food resource management.
