Sternstein, MD Posted: 01/31/2012 Download Slides Slide 1. Amy R. Sternstein, MD: Hello, I am Dr Amy Sternstein. I am assistant clinical professor in the Department of Pediatrics at the Ohio State University College of Medicine and a staff physician at the Center for Healthy Weight and Nutrition at Nationwide Children s Hospital in Columbus, Ohio. Welcome to this audio Webcast titled, An Ounce of Prevention is Worth a Pound: Shaping the Habits that Shape the Child. The purpose of this presentation is to show how healthcare providers can counsel on nutrition and physical activity for all well children, regardless of their weight, as well as provide obesity management if 4 of 17 3/1/12 1:57 PM
5 overweight or obesity is identified. Slide 2. An Ounce of Prevention is Worth a Pound ( Ounce of Prevention ) is an Ohio- based community health program designed to help provide healthy weight achievement and maintenance in children. Ounce of Prevention resources can be utilized in multiple settings due to the easy age-specific design; therefore, this activity is not exclusively intended for clinicians such as physicians or nurse practitioners. School nurses and dieticians as well as other allied care providers are welcome to integrate this information into their individual mentoring or caregiving role. The good news is that in most circumstances obesity can be prevented starting at birth, even if the prenatal history has put the child at risk. Ounce of Prevention aims to achieve this goal. 5 of 17 3/1/12 1:57 PM
6 Slide 3. In the December 2007 Pediatrics supplement, the AAP expert committee outlined stages of obesity prevention and management depending on the severity of the disease. This presentation will address only the initial stage. We will first focus on prevention measures using the Ounce of Prevention program. It is intended for all children regardless of their weight. Then we will move on to stage 1 obesity management using a real patient as an example. Slide 4. 6 of 17 3/1/12 1:57 PM
7 Despite growing evidence that obesity may start at infancy, if not prenatally, the 2011 Institute of Medicine report, Early Childhood Obesity Prevention Policies, clearly states that obesity prevention efforts have paid relatively little attention to children under age 5. Therefore, the Ounce of Prevention program has been created especially to start at birth, and follows the typical well-child schedule. This ensures multiple opportunities to instruct parents on how to safely establish a wide variety of nutritious foods without overfeeding and encourage daily activity. The secret to directing parental advice is to follow developmental milestones and anticipate what the family will introduce next. Ounce of Prevention is a collaborative effort initially created in 2006 to provide materials focusing on nutrition and physical activity guidance starting from birth. The partners on the project from its inception include the Ohio Chapter of The AAP, the Ohio Department of Health, the Ohio Dietetic Association, and American Dairy Counsel, Mideast. The current version was updated in 2010, spanning from birth to 18 years, with the addition of a Spanish acculturated version. All of the Ounce of Preventionmaterials, in color and black and white, are free and available online. Slide 5. The Anticipatory Guidance summary tip sheet is specifically designed to summarize the messages from birth to 6 years. Each visit has a corresponding age-specific parent handout, which can be personalized with the child s growth parameters. Since families often see multiple providers during well childcare, this can also assist in keeping a permanent record in the patient s chart so any provider can follow the patient s progress in subsequent well-child visits. 7 of 17 3/1/12 1:57 PM
8 Slide 6. Each age-specific parent handout has a place to document the child s name, date, and growth parameters, plus 4 divided sections: food for thought, feeding advice, physical activity advice, and a blank section for note taking by either the healthcare provider or the parent. Other Ounce of Preventionhandouts cover additional nutrition topics such as age-appropriate healthy servings. These include separate handouts for ages 2 to 3, 4 to 8, 9 to 13, and 14 to 18 years. For children younger than 2 years, you will find appropriate servings on the age-specific, well-child parent handout. Other available topics include healthy snacking, healthy bones, and sports nutrition. 8 of 17 3/1/12 1:57 PM
9 Slide 7. For more information and free downloads of all PDF files in both English and Spanish, please refer to any of these listed websites. 1,2,3,4 Slide 8. Now let us look at an example of obesity management identified as stage 1. MA is a 6-year-old female. As you can see on her growth chart, her weight of 108 pounds is clearly above the 95 th percentile. Her height is 49 inches, which is at the 90 th percentile, and her BMI is 31, which is above the 95 th percentile. She lives in a single parent household with a limited income and there is family history of diabetes as well as dyslipidemia. Her physical exam is unremarkable except for obesity. 9 of 17 3/1/12 1:57 PM
10 Slide 9. Remember, BMI is an excellent screening tool but not a diagnostic test. It is simply a proxy for adiposity. Accordion-like changes in BMI occur throughout childhood, and until the child has stopped growing his or her body shape cannot be assessed by a static number. As illustrated in the BMI growth chart, children may have a higher BMI as a toddler but should get thinner again during the preschool years. Therefore, it is essential to look for either the physiologic nadir that occurs around 4 years or lack of a nadir, which was missed in our particular 6-year-old example. This is an important step for early identification of at-risk children and it allows interventions to bring about change when children tend to be more receptive. 10 of 17 3/1/12 1:57 PM
11 Slide 10. Another obesity pattern is illustrated by this BMI graph. This child has an expected decrease in BMI as a preschooler, but his weight trajectory significantly changed after school entry. Slide 11. Our 6-year-old patient has a significant family history of diabetes and dyslipidemia. It is essential to place the BMI in context. Creating a risk profile not only includes a targeted family history, but a targeted review of systems and an evaluation to identify comorbidities. In addition to a physical exam, it is essential to obtain a diet and physical activity history. Acanthosis nigricans, which can be a sign of insulin resistance, is a very disturbing skin change seen in our patients. This sign, however, can provide an excellent opportunity for counseling on diabetes risk. 11 of 17 3/1/12 1:57 PM
12 Slide 12. Once you have established the risk profile, the next question is: When is it appropriate to check labs? The expert committee (of the AAP) summary recommendations provide guidelines and algorithms for lab evaluations. Our 6-year-old patient falls in the category of having a BMI greater than the 95 th percentile with risk factors. Slide 13. Other lab considerations come from the endocrinology literature. Here the ADA recommendations call for 12 of 17 3/1/12 1:57 PM
13 checking a fasting glucose with a BMI greater than 85 th percentile with specific risk factors. These are similar to the expert committee recommendations, just a bit more specific. Slide 14. Our 6-year-old patient had an abnormal lipid profile with elevated cholesterol of 205 mg/dl, low HDL (the good cholesterol), and an elevated triglyceride level of 188 mg/dl. The rest of her lab results, her fasting glucose and liver functions, are normal. The abnormal values can improve with simple dietary counseling once you have obtained a dietary history. 13 of 17 3/1/12 1:57 PM
14 Slide 15. To assess our patient s diet and activity history, the Healthy Habits survey is an excellent place to start. It is available online in versions for ages 2 to 9 and 10 to 18 at These tools have been adapted from Let s Go!, High Five for Kids, and Keep ME Healthy in Maine. Slide 16. The expert committee also identified 10 evidence-based messages to help guide nutrition and activity counseling. All 10 of these messages have been included in the Ounce of Prevention program. 14 of 17 3/1/12 1:57 PM
15 Slide 17. Here are some counseling tips. I have found that counseling is most effective when focused on health as opposed to specific weight-loss goals. It is essential to start by assessing the degree of interest via motivational interviews using open-ended questions, then prioritize your time by counseling the families who are the most interested and motivated to change. Other families may surprise you and may return after having moved further along the motivation continuum at a later date. It is important to attempt 3 to 6 months of counseling with close follow-up using the 10 evidence-based messages. Slide 18. It is also crucial to set realistic treatment goals. Often, this just means a decrease in weight velocity or weight maintenance with height growth, which will result in a corresponding decrease in BMI. As I stated in the beginning of this presentation, it is possible to see a significant drop in BMI with short-term counseling. These families are so appreciative, but more importantly, it creates a tremendous boost in the child s self-esteem. 15 of 17 3/1/12 1:57 PM
