Registration Number
NCT03998046
Lead Sponsor
Northwestern University
Brief Summary

The C3PO pilot and feasibility study uses a rigorous, mixed-method research design to provide information needed to refine and implement a technology-mediated primary care outreach intervention approach before conducting a larger and more definitive future intervention trial.

Detailed Description

This study will implement and evaluate a pragmatic and generalizable framework for population management of obesity by the primary care sector. With patient and other stakeholder input, the C3PO intervention will be designed to leverage existing primary care professionals and technologies to implement a scalable framework for population obesity management that coordinates primary care services with extant intensive lifestyle interventions in community settings to achieve wider reach and population-level effectiveness. A rigorous, mixed-method pilot and feasibility study will provide critical information needed to optimize the intervention design and prepare us for a larger and definitive future trial.
