“…No entanto, para o gênero masculino foi observada melhora significativa da pressão arterial sistólica na comparação entre o baseline e o momento pós-6 meses de intervenção e entre o baseline e o momento pós-um ano de intervenção. Contraditoriamente, em um estudo feito no ambiente escolar com 2.494 crianças obesas de 6 a 13 anos, Hollar et al (2010) ARAÚJO, 2003). Em relação à frequência cardíaca no repouso, valores mais baixos podem estar associados a um quadro de saúde mais favorável.…”

Avaliar os efeitos de um Programa Multiprofissional de Tratamento da Obesidade (PMTO) e de sua cessação sobre o perfil hemodinâmico de adolescentes. Foram avaliados 19 adolescentes com excesso de peso de 10 a 18 anos. Medidas antropométricas, pressão arterial e frequência cardíaca de repouso foram incluídas na análise. Os adolescentes completaram 16 semanas do PMTO com uma equipe multiprofissional focada em promover mudanças no estilo de vida dos adolescentes. Os mesmos retornaram para avaliação após oito semanas de cessação das atividades. Após o PMTO, foi observada redução na frequência cardíaca de repouso nas meninas sem diferença significativa para o momento de cessação. Os meninos apresentaram melhora para as variáveis: circunferência abdominal, IMC, gordura relativa e massa magra após o PMTO. Após o período cessação houve aumento significativo apenas no peso. Os resultados evidenciam o impacto positivo de um PMTO demonstrando efeitos diferentes de acordo com o gênero.

“…In the larger study (n ¼ 2,494, 46% Hispanic), girls from the four intervention schools had improved blood pressures and BMI z scores compared to girls in the two control schools at the completion of the program. Significant changes in these variables were not observed in the boys following the intervention (Hollar et al, 2010b). Trevino et al (2004) evaluated the effectiveness of the Bienestar Health Program to prevent Type 2 diabetes in low-income Mexican American children in inner city neighborhoods in San Antonio, Texas (Table 1).…”

The prevalence of childhood overweight and obesity in the United States has resulted in a number of school-based health interventions. This article provides a review of research that addressed childhood overweight and obesity in minority, U.S. elementary schools. All studies reported some benefits in health behaviors and/or anthropometric measures. Effectiveness was greater when program objectives were specific, implemented across the school environments, extended into the community, and were culturally relevant. Because minority school children are disproportionately affected by overweight and obesity and poor health behaviors, and since schools may be the primary setting to address childhood overweight and obesity in communities, school nurses can be an advocate for school-based programs and facilitate success.

“…Significant reduction in systolic and diastolic blood pressure were found in the study by Hollar et al 43 with 2,494 obese children aged 6-13 years after performing a 1 yearmultidisciplinary intervention. Cattai et al 44 demonstrated that a reduction in adiposity, which provides social integration and physical selfperception benefits, can certainly contribute to the promotion of health of these individuals.…”

Multidisciplinary programs for obesity treatment in Brazil: A systematic review

et al. 2016

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

This study aimed to conduct a systematic review of publications addressing the multidisciplinary treatment of obesity in Brazil and analyze their main results. A search was conducted in the databases SciELO, Lilacs, and Pubmed/Medline using the following search terms: 'obesidade', 'intervenção', 'tratamento', 'Brasil', for the search in Portuguese, and 'obesity', 'intervention', 'treatment', 'Brazil', for the search in English. Based on these terms, the following combination of words was used: 'Intervenção multiprofissional da obesidade', 'tratamento multidisciplinar da obesidade, tratamento multiprofissional da obesidade' and 'multidisciplinary obesity intervention', 'multidisciplinary obesity treatment', 'Multiprofessional obesity treatment'. Inclusion criteria were as follows: original studies carried out in Brazil involving human beings and that reported an intervention including two or more health care professionals. Articles published between January 2005 and July 2015 were analyzed independently by two reviewers. At the end of the analysis, out of 355 articles initially selected, 26 met all inclusion criteria. The following results were found: 23 studies involved children and adolescents and 03 involved adults 20-60 years of age. It was also found that the 26 studies analyzed had an impact on anthropometric parameters, 10 on physical fitness parameters, 16 on biochemical parameters, 10 on the reduction in comorbidities, 6 on nutritional parameters, and 4 on the psychological/social aspects. Based on evidence presented in the studies reviewed, it can be said that the multidisciplinary treatment for obesity greatly contributed to the reduction in the anthropometric indicators, especially BMI and the biochemical, social, and psychological parameters. Thus, these findings demonstrate that there is a need to expand the range of this type of treatment since it has proven to be effective in the fight against obesity and its comorbidities.
