A randomized, home-based, childhood obesity intervention delivered by patient navigators.
This paper delineates the study protocol for the Community Outreach Obesity Prevention Trial. COOPT is an ongoing, 4-year (October 2011-September 2015) randomized controlled trial that tests the effectiveness of a home-based patient navigator program delivered to preschoolers of a large urban safety-net health care system. The researchers believe that its home-based intervention venue will provide rich data characterizing barriers and facilitators to healthy behavior change within the home.
