Dynamo Kids!/¡Niños Dinámicos! A web site for pediatric primary care providers to offer parents of children 6-12 years old with overweight and obesity: web site development and protocol for pilot study.
The purpose of this study will be to determine whether a self-guided web site offered by pediatric primary care providers could assist parents with applying healthy behaviors. If successful, a large, controlled study may be conducted to further assess. The Dynamo Kids/¡Niños Dinámicos program was created with feedback from parents and health care professionals, developing a bilingual site for parents to about healthy behavior changes for their children and how to implement them. Electronic health record modifications alert providers to qualified children at well-child encounters. Parents complete online surveys before entering the site. In month 3 of the study, the practitioners will examine children in weight-focused appointments. Outcomes include change in Family Nutrition and Physical Activity parent survey score (primary) and change in child relative BMI (secondary). Additional data include time spent on site, provider surveys, and provider and parent interviews.
