研究概览
简要总结
This study will evaluate whether the short-term use of activity tracking devices improves short-term weight loss in adolescents. The investigators will evaluate whether weight loss translates into a change in obesity-related biomarkers associated with adolescent obesity. In addition, the investigators will report outcomes after the implementation of activity tracking devices in conjunction with an intense adolescent weight loss program.
详细描述
This study will evaluate the short-term use of activity tracking devices and their effects on short- and long-term weight loss in adolescents. The investigators plan to establish whether weight loss translates into a change in obesity-related biomarkers associated with adolescent obesity. Each participant with an activity tracking device will have the goal of reaching 10,000 steps per day, in addition to their individual fitness plan.

主要结局
Feasibility of the pilot trial will be measured by an attrition rate of ≤50%.
时间窗: 18 weeks
We set a study attrition rate of participants at ≤50% as the feasibility measure for the study.
次要结局
