Overweight at the GP surgery
What do we need to proceed?

The bad news
• We know little about what is going on
• We know less about why
• We know even less about what to do about it
![Page 3: Overweight at the GP surgery](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062323/568162bf550346895dd34edf/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
The good news
• We know little about what is going on– GP’s can contribute to develop our knowledge
• We know less about why– GP’s can contribute to develop our knowledge
• We know even less about what to do about it– GP’s can contribute to develop our knowledge

How can the GP contribute?
• Share routine data on growth – Understanding overweight– Evaluate interventions
• Identify children in risk of overweight early• Develop preventive programs

How do we measure children BMI?1-5 years
• Norway – Only height
• Sweden– 5 years
• Island – 1½ and 2½ years
• Finland– Every year
• Denmark– Every year

Centralised datacollections
• Denmark– Prospectively data probably systematically
collected at the National Board of Health – A project to retrive previously data is being
established• Sweden and Finland: on their way• Norway and Island?

Identifying children in risk of overweight
• In their report from 2008 The National Board for Physical activity and Nutrition (’Motions- og Ernæringsrådet’) suggested: – establishment of a system to identify children in
risk of developing adiposity before the adipsosity is manifest
– That this system should be part of the routine health examinations when the children are 3, 4 and 5 year old

Can we find and treat at risk children?
• The national college of general practitioners
• From 2006
![Page 11: Overweight at the GP surgery](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062323/568162bf550346895dd34edf/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
What more do we need?
• A tool to estimate the childrens risk of being overweight early?
• Development of programs to approach the child at risk of being overweight and its family?

The Whitaker studies
• 854 individuals BMI retrospectively collected• Endpoint BMI at 20-29 year of age• Overweight definition adults: BMI > 27.8/27.3• Overweight definitions children 15th centile

Developing a Nordic algoritme for estmating risk of overweight early
• Cohorts– Aarhus Birth Cohort (90-92)- development– Northern Finnish Birth Cohort (85-86)-test
• Some of the potential predictive variables– Both parents BMI– Maternal smoking– Birthweight and gestational age at birth– Breastfeeding– Childs growthpattern
![Page 17: Overweight at the GP surgery](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062323/568162bf550346895dd34edf/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Plan
• To integrate the algoritm in the datacapture module– Clinical tool for GP’s– Evaluation
• To develop an intervention model– The GP surgery– Municipallity setting
