VANCOUVER, B.C. – Many overweight and obese children don’t outgrow their risk as they get older – and if they do, it’s usually between kindergarten and first grade, according to a longitudinal study that followed kindergartners to fifth grade.
But how should physicians open up the conversation with parents about their children’s obesity risks?
In this video interview at the annual meeting of the Pediatric Academic Societies, Dr. Raquel G. Hernandez, the study’s lead investigator who is with the department of pediatrics at the Johns Hopkins University School and is the associate director of medical education at All Children’s Hospital Johns Hopkins Medicine, St. Petersburg, Fla., shares her practice tips for talking with parents.
