目的:研究“互联网+”模式对3~6岁儿童肥胖相关饮食行为的干预效果。方法:采用整群随机抽样方法抽取南充市顺庆区4所条件基本相同的幼儿园中2018年6~12月在南充市中心医院儿童保健门诊就诊的3~6岁单纯性肥胖儿童96例,随机分为试验组46例...目的:研究“互联网+”模式对3~6岁儿童肥胖相关饮食行为的干预效果。方法:采用整群随机抽样方法抽取南充市顺庆区4所条件基本相同的幼儿园中2018年6~12月在南充市中心医院儿童保健门诊就诊的3~6岁单纯性肥胖儿童96例,随机分为试验组46例,对照组50例,试验组进行常规儿童保健+饮食行为干预+“互联网+”干预+个案管理,对照组进行常规儿童保健+饮食行为干预,1年后观察两组儿童干预效果,包括身高、体质量、腰围、体质量指数(body mass index,BMI)、体脂百分比等。结果:干预前两组儿童身高、体质量、腰围、体质指数、体脂百分比比较差异无统计学意义(P>0.05),干预后两组儿童各指标均明显改善(P<0.05),试验组改善更明显(P<0.01)。结论“:互联网+”模式下3~6岁儿童肥胖相关饮食行为干预相比传统线下干预模式效更显著,可以更好达到预防、干预、控制肥胖的目的。展开更多
