Study Summary

99 patients age 12 to \<18 years old with obesity (BMI \>/=95th percentile), will be randomized to one of three treatment interventions: 1. Usual Care 2. Usual Care plus advice to weigh daily on simple scale 3. Usual Care plus advice to weigh-daily on an EHR-connected scale Survey data collected at baseline, 2, 4, 6, and 12-weeks, and qualitative interviews at 12 weeks, will assess acceptability, safety, self-efficacy, and BMI. Recruitment will also be assessed (% eligible patients who consent). In order to understand real-world feasibility of this intervention, the clinic staff will work with patients to connect the scales to Epic.

Primary Outcome

Feasibility will be measured by determining if the clinic staff can successfully connect scales to the EHR and access home weights through the EHR. Staff will record time required to connect the scale, answer questions and trouble-shoot problems that arise with the scale between visits to understand the time burden of this intervention.
