Dataset Information

Long-term results of a digital treatment tool as an add-on to pediatric obesity lifestyle treatment: a 3-year pragmatic clinical trial.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The integration of mobile health technology with physical visits shows promising one-year treatment outcomes, but long-term evidence is lacking.

Objectives

To assess three-year treatment outcomes for patients utilizing the digital treatment tool Evira in combination with physical visits, compared with standard obesity care.

Methods

In a pragmatic trial, children with obesity aged 4.0-17.9 years receiving digi-physical treatment with Evira (n = 107) were compared with a group receiving standard treatment (n = 321). Evira comprises a digitless body scale for home-weighing, a mobile application, and a web-based clinic interface, enabling easy family-clinic communication and continuous visual treatment feedback.
