Multidisciplinary treatment of childhood obesity

Flodmark, Carl-Erik LU and Järvholm, Kajsa LU (2024) p.245-257
Abstract
Childhood obesity is a disease with multifactorial causes and consequences; therefore, childhood obesity needs multidisciplinary assessment and treatment. This chapter outlines the basic concepts for a multidisciplinary team for treating childhood obesity and gives a practical example in the SOFT (Standard Obesity Family Therapy)-model. SOFT is a multidisciplinary treatment validated in an RCT and used in clinical practice at the Childhood Obesity Unit at Skåne University Hospital in Malmö since 2002.
