Study Summary

This 12-month randomized controlled trial, sponsored by NIH/NCI, aims to reduce BMI in obese adolescents (ages 11 -13) by intervening on physical activity and nutrition behaviors within primary care settings. PACE-PC is a theory-based stepped care program that enables pediatricians and primary care providers to intervene with obese adolescents to improve their anthropometric, metabolic, physiological, behavioral, and quality of life outcomes over a one-year period. The program integrates clinician counseling, health educator counseling, and phone and mail contact. It supports tailoring to the needs of obese adolescents and family members and promotes improved diet and physical activity behaviors, weight loss, and ultimately weight loss maintenance. Participants will be randomly assigned to the Enhanced Usual Care or the PACE-PC stepped care condition. The Enhanced Standard Care condition includes an initial visit and counseling by a physician, 3 visits with a health educator, and materials on how to improve weight related behaviors. The PACE-PC Stepped Care condition includes 3 steps (each lasting 4 months), with the first step being the most intensive: Step 1 includes: a physician visit, monthly health educator visits, biweekly phone counseling, and weekly dissemination of nutrition and physical activity information Step 2 includes: a health educator visits every other month, biweekly phone counseling, and weekly dissemination of nutrition and physical activity information Step 3 includes: monthly phone counseling and weekly dissemination of nutrition and physical activity information Participants randomized to the PACE-PC condition will be enrolled in Step 1 (the most intensive) for the first 4 months. Depending upon response at the end of Step 1, for the next 4 months adolescents will be triaged to Step 2 (less intensive) or will repeat Step 1. At 8 months, again based upon treatment response, triage will occur to either Step 3 (least intensive) or repetit
