One of the main aims of the European Childhood Obesity Group (ECOG) is to assist healthcare workers in delivering evidence-based assessment and treatment of childhood obesity. Every year the ECOG Congress includes working groups whose objective is to highlight concerns faced by clinicians and practitioners who work in the field of pediatric obesity. This year, a working group was devoted to the assessment of physical activity and physical fitness in this population. The present commentary attempts to summarize the main themes identified by practitioners during these workshops in order to provide the basic and essential first steps required to address physical activity and fitness in children with obesity.
欧洲儿童肥胖症小组(ECOG)的主要目标之一是协助医护人员对儿童肥胖症进行循证评估和治疗。每年的ECOG大会都设有工作组,其目的是突出儿科肥胖领域临床医生和从业者所面临的问题。今年,一个工作组专门负责评估该人群的身体活动和体能。本评论试图总结从业者在这些研讨会中确定的主要主题,以便为解决肥胖儿童的身体活动和体能问题提供基本且必要的初步措施。
