5. INTRODUCTION
Pediatric obesity is
currently one of the most
important global public
health challenges.
In fact, the World Health
Organization (WHO)
describes pediatric
obesity as "one of the
most serious public
health challenges of the
21 st century."
6. INTRODUCTION CONT;
The prevalence of overweight and obesity
in pediatrics has supposedly increased
alarmingly, not only in economically
advanced countries, but also in
developing countries of Africa, Asia,
Oceania and South America. A 2012
estimate of the WHO reports that globally
40 million children younger than 5 years
are overweight
7. DEFINITION
• Overweight and obesity are defined as abnormal or
excessive fat accumulation that may impair health.
• Body mass index (BMI) is the index of weight-for-
height that is commonly made used of to classify
overweight and obesity in adults.
• BMI It is defined as a person's weight in kilograms
divided by the square of his height in meters
(kg/m2).
8. DEFINITION CONT....
For adults, WHO defines overweight and obesity
as follows:
• Overweight is a BMI greater than or equal to
25; and
• Obesity is a BMI greater than or equal to 30.
9. DEFINITION CONT…
• For children, age needs to be considered
when defining overweight and obesity.
• Children under 5 years of age
• Overweight is weight-for-height greater
than 2 standard deviations above WHO
Child Growth Standards median; and
• Obesity is weight-for-height greater than 3
standard deviations above the WHO Child
Growth Standards median.
10. DEFINITION CONT…
Children aged between 5–19 years
• Overweight is BMI-for-age greater than 1
standard deviation above the WHO Growth
Reference median; and
• Obesity is greater than 2 standard deviations
above the WHO Growth Reference median

12. Determining BMI Percentiles for
Children and Teens (Age 2-20)
Weight Status Category
• Underweight
• Healthy weight
• Overweight
• Obese
• Less than the 5th percentile
• 5th percentile to less than the
85th percentile
• 85th to less than the 95th
percentile
• Equal to or greater than the
95th percentile
Percentile Range
13. EPIDEMIOLOGY OF CHILDHOOD OBESITY
• In 2019, an estimated 38.2 million children
under the age of 5 years were overweight or
obese.
• Once considered a high-income country
problem, now on the rise in low- and
middle-income countries, particularly in
urban settings.
• In Africa, the number of overweight children
under 5 has increased by nearly 24% percent
since 2000.
14. EPIDEMIOLOGY cont…
• Almost half of the under 5 who were overweight or
obese in 2019 lived in Asia.
• Over 340 million children and adolescents aged 5-
19 were overweight or obese in 2016.
• While just under 1% of children and adolescents
aged 5-19 were obese in 1975, more 124 million
children and adolescents (6% of girls and 8% of
boys) were obese in 2016.
15. CAUSES OF OBESITY
Behavioral Factors
• Eating bigger portions,
eating foods that are
calorie-rich but nutrient
poor
• Spending lots of time in
front of the television or
computer
• Spending too little time on
physical activities
16. Environmental
Factors
Easy access to high-
calorie junk foods
Few opportunities for
physical activity
Lack of parks and
playgrounds in some
communities
21. Family Factors
The types of food
available and the food
preferences of family
family mealtimes
family habits, whether
they are sedentary or
physically active
having an overweight
mother and living in a
single parent household
24. POVERTY AND OBESITY
•Buy cheaper, less healthy food
•Poor being less educated
•Families choose high-fat foods
dense with energy
•The fresh vegetables and fruits
and lean meats and fish might be
more expensive and don’t last
long
25. POVERTY AND OBESITY cont…
•Those adult with low wages had
increased BMI as well as increased
chance of being obese concluded
Kim & Leigh, (2010).”
• In another study by singh in 2007,
children from lower income
households had more than two times
higher odds of being obese than
children from higher income
households
27. Relationship Between Childhood Obesity
And Educational
According to a study conducted by Marion Devaux in 2011
he following were her findings
Obese children has low self-esteem and poor social
connection.
They are more prone to being bullied by schoolmates.
Poor academic performance is higher among them.
Affect academic performance and education attainment
later on in life.
31. OTHER COMPLICATIONS
• Economic Consequences : $14.1 billion,29 plus
inpatient costs of $237.6 million.3 in USA only
• Academic consequences
• Socio-emotional consequences
35. OTHER PREVENTIVE MEASURES
Choose nonfood rewards
Have healthy snacks available.
Reduced sedentary activity
Be sure your child gets enough sleep.
Keep the fridge and pantry stocked with healthy
foods and drinks
Encourage children to eat only when hungry.
Drink Water not carbonated drinks
36. Weight Loss Medications in the
Treatment of Pediatric Obesity
• Sibutramine, an appetite suppressant, is a
nonselective reuptake inhibitor. cause
vasoconstriction
• Orlistat is a reversible lipase inhibitor. It binds lipase
in the lumen of the stomach and intestine, making
it unavailable to hydrolyze dietary fat (triglycerides)
and cholesterol to free fatty acids and glycerol.
Intact triglycerides and cholesterol cannot be
absorbed; they pass through the intestine and are
excreted in the feces.
37. SURGICAL MANAGEMENT
• Bariatric surgeries
Bariatric weight loss procedures can be divided
into 3 main categories, that is,
malabsorptive,
restrictive, and
combination
39. COMPLICATIONS OF THE
PROCEDURES
Early complications
leaks, stenoses, bleeding, and venous
thromboembolic events
Balloon complications
reflux, nausea, and abdominal discomfort
Late complications
band erosion, acute obstruction, ischemia, and
megaesophagus or pseudoachalasia.
41. SUMMARY
• Childhood obesity has reached epidemic levels
in developed as well as in developing countries.
• Overweight and obesity in childhood are known
to have significant impact on both physical and
psychological health.
42. CONCLUSION
• The growing issue of childhood obesity can be slowed,
if society focuses on the causes.
• A combined diet and physical activity intervention
conducted in the community with a school component
is more effective at preventing obesity.
• Parentsshould enforce a healthier lifestyle at home
• Focusing on these causes may, over time, decrease
childhood obesity and lead to a healthier society as a
whole.
