This study describes school-based health center (SBHC) providers' adherence to obesity guidelines.
Providers (n = 28) were from SBHCs in six states serving children 5-12 years of age. A random sample of well-child charts (n = 850) were audited for body mass index percentage, blood pressure percentage, overweight/obesity diagnosis, and laboratory assessment.
Body mass index percentage was documented on 73% of charts and blood pressure percentage on 30.5%. Providers accurately diagnosed 40% overweight and 49.3% obese children. Laboratory guidelines were followed in 80.4% of cases. Assessments differed by child's race/ethnicity (p < .05), with most criteria having higher adherence in minority youth.
There is a need for increased accuracy in how SBHC providers screen overweight/obese children.
本研究描述了学校健康中心(SBHC)提供者对肥胖指南的遵守情况。
提供者(n = 28)来自六个州的学校健康中心,服务5至12岁儿童。随机抽取健康儿童病历样本(n = 850),审核其体重指数百分比、血压百分比、超重/肥胖诊断及实验室评估情况。
73%的病历记录了体重指数百分比,30.5%记录了血压百分比。提供者准确诊断出40%的超重儿童和49.3%的肥胖儿童。80.4%的病例遵循了实验室指南。评估因儿童的种族/族裔而异(p < .05),大多数标准在少数族裔青少年中具有更高的遵守率。
学校健康中心提供者筛查超重/肥胖儿童的准确性有待提高。
