  1. Pediatric Obesity and theEarly Childhood Obesity Prevention Collaborative Presenters: Jolene Smith, Executive Director, FIRST 5 Santa Clara County Daniel Delgado, MD, FAAP Pediatric Healthy Lifestyle Center, Santa Clara County Health and Hospital System Jo Seavey-Hultquist, FIRST 5 Santa Clara County, Performance Management Liaison Michelle Wexler, FIRST 5 Santa Clara County, Performance Management Liaison

  2. Why Should We Care About Pediatric Obesity? • Daniels, SR. Future Child. 2006 Spring;16(1):47-67. “the possibility has even been raised that the increasing prevalence and severity of childhood obesity may reverse the modern era's steady increase in life expectancy, with today's youth on average living less healthy and ultimately shorter lives than their parents-the first such reversal in lifespan in modern history. Such a possibility, he concludes, makes obesity in children an issue of utmost public health concern.” www.first5kids.org

  3. Goals of Today’s Talk • Clarify the extent of the obesity epidemic on a national & state level • Educate on the health problems that pediatric obesity causes • Clarify what the “epidemic” means on the front lines – at the patient level • Not to scare you but call you to legislative action www.first5kids.org

  4. Clarify the terms: a word about BMI & tracking an epidemic • Body Mass Index: weight (kg) ÷ height (cm) ÷ height (cm) x 10,000 • BMI is a proxy for weight for height and overweight/obesity • In 1990, NO STATES had obesity prevalence rates above 20 percent www.first5kids.org

  5. Obesity Trends* Among U.S. AdultsBRFSS, 1990 (*BMI ≥30, or ~ 30 lbs overweight for 5’ 4” person) No Data <10% 10%–14% www.first5kids.org

  6. Obesity Trends* Among U.S. AdultsBRFSS, 1994 (*BMI ≥30, or ~ 30 lbs overweight for 5’ 4” person) No Data <10% 10%–14% 15%–19% www.first5kids.org

  7. Obesity Trends* Among U.S. AdultsBRFSS, 1997 (*BMI ≥30, or ~ 30 lbs overweight for 5’ 4” person) No Data <10% 10%–14% 15%–19% ≥20% www.first5kids.org

  8. Obesity Trends* Among U.S. AdultsBRFSS, 2000 (*BMI ≥30, or ~ 30 lbs overweight for 5’ 4” person) No Data <10% 10%–14% 15%–19% ≥20% www.first5kids.org

  11. What about California children? Data from Children’s Health and Disability Prevention (CHDP) - Pediatric Nutrition Surveillance System (PedNSS)

  12. Prevalence of Obesityfrom PedNSS 2006California, Children <5 years, by race and ethnicity, with BMI-for-age > 95% *> 95th percentile weight-for-length or BMI-for-age, CDC Growth Charts, 2000. Pediatric Nutrition Surveillance System 2006 Centers for Disease Control Report, Table 8C, provided by the Child Health and Disability Prevention Program (CHDP), Public Health Department, Santa Clara County

  13. So do kids grow out of it? • The NIH Institute of Child Health and Human Development Study of Early Child Care and Youth Development looked at 1042 healthy children in 10 locations • Born in 1991, their growth reflects the secular trend of increasing overweight/obesity in the US population www.first5kids.org

  14. So do kids grow out of it?NO! • BMI > 85% once between 24-54 months old were 5 times more likely to be overweight at age 12 • 60% of overweight preschoolers were overweight at age 12 • 80% of overweight elementary school kids were overweight at age 12 • Pervasive message: prevention starts EARLY • Nader, PR, et al. Identifying Risk for Obesity in Early Childhood. Pediatrics 2006; 118: e594-e601 www.first5kids.org

  15. What does obesity mean for kids? • Kids now present with adult disease states that were unheard of 10 years ago • Seeing not only earlier progression to disease but also more severe disease • Pediatric obesity effects current quality of life www.first5kids.org

  16. Diseases seen in obese children • Neurologic • Headaches • Increased incidence • Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) • 90% of obese kids that snore have some component of OSA • 50% of OSA children also have ADHD symptoms • Many need tonsillectomies/adenoidectomies www.first5kids.org

  17. Diseases seen in obese children • Cardiovascular • Obese kids (BMI >95%) have risk of hypertension (BP’s = 95% or above) • 8% of 2-5 year olds • 11% of 6-10 year olds • 20% of 11-15 year olds • 20% of 16-19 year olds • J. Pediatr. 2006; 148: 195-200. www.first5kids.org

  18. Diseases seen in obese children • Gastroenterologic • Non-alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD) • Excess fat storage in liver (think foie gras) • Is related to insulin resistance (certain ethnicities at risk) • 38% of PHLC kids that had labs had elevated liver enzymes • Non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) • Inflammation/scarring due to fatty liver • Up to 20% of NASH may progress to cirrhosis www.first5kids.org

  19. Diseases seen in obese children • Endocrine Disorders • Precocious Puberty • Treated as older by peers and family • Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome • Infertility • Insulin Resistance/Pre-diabetes • Irregular menses, liver dysfunction www.first5kids.org

  20. Diseases seen in obese children • Orthopedic • Slipped Capital Femoral Epiphysis (SCFE) • Growth plate shears at the femur; leads to pinning • Blount’s disease • Crushing of growth plate at knees www.first5kids.org

  21. Diseases seen in obese children • Psychologic/Psychiatric • Depression • Diminished self-esteem • Eating disorders • Up to 50% of adults in self-help weight loss program had findings of Binge Eating Disorder www.first5kids.org

  22. Diseases seen in obese children • Pulmonary • Pulmonary hypertension • End result of untreated OSA, leads to right-sided heart failure • Increased allergen sensitivity • Asthma • Worse in both in incidence and severity www.first5kids.org

  23. Could one disease lead to another? • “Overweight kids in Harlem twice as likely to suffer from asthma” J of Urban Health • Chicken or egg? • Overweight exposed to more allergens since they spend more time indoors • Asthma kids less active to avoid flares and thus gain weight www.first5kids.org

  24. Could one disease lead to another? • Sedentary lifestyle -> more allergen sensitivity enlarged adenoids and tonsils increased OSA/apnea -> morning sleepiness less time to eat b-fast & increase in weight ADHD symptoms -> more homework time less play -> increase in weight -> worse asthma/allergies -> worse apnea The downward spiral www.first5kids.org

  25. The Pervasive Message? • All organ systems are related! • Obese children are complicated patients • Pediatricians are ill-prepared to deal with these medical problems www.first5kids.org

  26. Why Should We Care About Pediatric Obesity? • Indeterminable cost to society in the future • Already needing to start kids on diabetes meds • Generic Metformin: $600-$1,200 per year • Echocardiograms, liver biopsies, sleep studies • It is all on the tax dollar • Future issues of rationing care • Which diabetics should we dialyze? • Which NASH kids should get a liver transplant? www.first5kids.org

  27. Typical day at the PLMC • 8 y.o. (163 lb) & 10 y.o. (220 lb) Latina sisters, both insulin resistant (IR) and abnormal lipid panels • 8 y.o.

  30. Early Childhood Obesity Prevention Collaborative • Co-Chaired by Dr. Daniel Delgado, and FIRST 5 • Charged with developing a strategic plan that incorporates interventions which will address the issue of early childhood obesity • Sub-group: Policy Workgroup Chaired by Santa Clara County Supervisor Ken Yeager • Generated ideas for policy approaches to early childhood obesity www.first5kids.org

  31. Call to Action Early Childhood Obesity Prevention Collaborative:Potential Legislative Strategies • Provide subsidies to small stores so that they can price healthier foods cheaper than unhealthy foods • Tax or fee on fast food sales and have the fee monies be used for obesity prevention programs • Advocate for health insurance plans to cover obesity prevention in clinical practice and breastfeeding/lactation services • Have preschool and child care licensing/ certification contingent upon meeting and implementing nutritional and physical activity guidelines • Create policies that regulate advertising/marketing of unhealthy foods to young children www.first5kids.org

  32. Call to Action Other School-Age Potential Legislative Strategies • Continued changes needed in school lunch offerings; re-do current nutritional guidelines • Junk Food Tax or even better “Diabetes Prevention Tax” on unhealthy foods (high fructose corn syrup) • Junk food-free school campuses • Mandatory everyday PE in schools • Mandatory play before homework in after-school programs • Legislation so that insurance companies will pay for obesity treatment/lifestyle modification visits; currently not a reimbursed visit • Examine legislation to mandate changes in medical education www.first5kids.org

  33. Call to Action Strategies for Change on a Personal Level • Stop serving soda/high fructose corn syrup drinks at family functions • Soda = beer/tequila. It’s a drink for adults only. • Have your kids play as soon as they get home & before doing their homework, especially in winter • Buy a kid a bike, not videogames • Eat dinner as a family www.first5kids.org
