2 Disclosures Off label use of adjustable gastric bands will be discussed No financial disclosures

3 It is time to change how we think about this disease

4 The effects of severe obesity are deadly and CUMULATIVE

5 Paradigm shift time

6 OK This is one time where kids actually ARE small adults

7 The difference: Children have a short window of plasticity

8 THE CLOCK IS TICKING Only a child for a short time Cumulative effects Shortens life Severe effects on QOL Adverse effect on productivity

9 Delay in treatment is injurious

10 Age continuum of the disease of obesity

11 Increasing prevalence of severe obesity Skinner et al JAMA Pediatrics 2014

12 Obesity prevalence is increasing Girls Boys Freedman, D. S., Obesity - United States, MMWR CDC, (2011) 60 Suppl, 73-77

13 Childhood Obesity - Emotions Medical community Anxiety Public Anxiety? Ignorance is bliss?

14 An OPERATION for obesity in CHILDREN? Medical community Anxiety!!! Hope? Excitement? Public Anxiety? Ignorance is bliss?

15 You want to do WHAT to a kid???

22 An OPERATION for obesity in CHILDREN? Remember what you thought about BMT?

23 Childhood cancer Do we say: Oh, my, having such a big dangerous operation to remove a Wilm tumor (for cure) is so dangerous, and we wouldn t want potential renal insufficiency in adult life So we wont resect the tumor until the child reaches adulthood By then, of course, cure is out of reach

24 Complications of Obesity Severe obesity and related comorbidities worsen over time

25 Severe obesity worsens over time Princeton Cohort BMI > 40 kg/m2 BMI Baseline 1yr 2yr 3yr 4yr 5yr Year of F/U Slope +1/yr p< % Remain Morbidly Obese Dolan RO1 unpublished

26 Type 2 diabetes worsens 51 graduates of childhood diabetes clinic Age 17 at T2DM diagnosis In 2002, graduates were age yrs OUTCOME?

27 Tragedies Ahead? Death 2 sudden deaths on dialysis (age 25, 31) 2 traumatic deaths 3 deaths from unrelated illness Morbidity 3 others alive on dialysis 1 blind at age 26 1 with amputation 67% with severely high HbA1C

28 Tragedies Ahead? Pregnancy outcome 56 pregnancies 35 live births

30 Complications of obesity worsen over time Elevated adolescent BMI is a risk factor that is independent of adult BMI Elevated BMI in adolescence increases risk for CHD in adulthood by 12% per increase of 1 unit of BMI Tirosh, A. NEJM 2011 vol. 364 (14) pp

31 Surgical Guidelines Surgical guidelines have been debated and refined over the years

32 March 1991 Gastrointestinal Surgery for Severe Obesity National Institutes of Health Consensus Development Conference Statement Bariatric operations have complications Decision making requires risk-benefit assessment Patients with BMI 40 are potential candidates for surgery if they strongly desire substantial weight loss, because obesity severely impairs QOL If BMI surgery if high-risk conditions: severe sleep apnea, Pickwickian syndrome, obesity-related cardiomyopathy, severe diabetes mellitus, obesity-induced physical problems interfering with lifestyle Am J Clin Nutr 1992:55:615S-9S

33 March 1991 Gastrointestinal Surgery for Severe Obesity National Institutes of Health Consensus Development Conference Statement Children and adolescents have not been sufficiently studied to allow a recommendation for surgery owhen pediatric patients are developing Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome, Type II DM, cirrhosis, hypertension, how much study is needed? owhen and how do we initiate effective treatment? Am J Clin Nutr 1992:55:615S-9S

34 Pediatrics 2004 vol. 114 (1) pp

35 BMI < 40, non-surgical management Surgery if BMI 40 with Type 2 DM, Obstructive sleep apnea, Pseudotumor cerebri Surgery if BMI 50 with other clinically significant comorbid conditions Dyslipidemia Hypertension Weight related psychosocial distress; Impaired ADL NASH Pediatrics 2004;114:217-23

36 Only when unsuccessful with 6 months non-surgical weight management When extremely obese (BMI greater than 40) When adult height reached (usually 13 or older for girls and 15 or older for boys), and Have serious weight-related health problems, such as type 2 diabetes, sleep apnea, heart disease, or significant functional or psychosocial impairment Patients should be referred to specialized adolescent bariatric surgery centers with a team of experts qualified to meet their unique needs Pediatrics 2004;114:217-23

68 Conclusions Surgical weight loss is an effective treatment for adolescent morbid obesity Most complications of obesity are improved or resolve with surgical weight loss Knowing what we know now the ethics have become clear

69 The question is no longer whether it is, or isn t ethical for children to have bariatric surgery It is unethical NOT to offer this therapy to those in need

70 Conclusions Develop a sense of urgency Delay is injurious

71 So, I have a patient suffering from severe obesity disease What do I do?

72 Stage One: Prevention Plus Usually Primary Care provider Dietary Habits: Behavior Counseling: Breakfast daily, limit meals outside the home, family meals 5-6 days per week, Allow child to self regulate Goals: Weight maintenance with growth and decreasing BMI Monthly follow up- no improvement 3-6 months advance to Stage Two

73 Stage Two: Structured Weight Management Program Primary care provider with appropriate training Dietary habits and physical activity: develop action plan for nutrient dense foods, structured meal time and snacks, Supervised activity 60 minutes per day, screen time one hour or less. Goal: decreasing BMI with age, weight loss should not exceed 1 pound per month Monthly follow up: no improvement advance to Stage Three

74 Stage 3 and 4 weight management After 6 months of stage 2 therapy (Structured weight management) Stage 3 Comprehensive multidisciplinary intervention Stage 4 - Tertiary care Stage 3 + medications and/or operations

75 Evaluation includes Surgical and medical evaluation Identification and treatment of comorbidities Nutritional evaluation and education Exercise therapy 2hr/wk x 12 weeks With dietary coaching Psychological assessment and referral to maintenance therapy prn Social/family evaluation

76 Food insecurity

77 Focus on developmentally appropriate care

78 So, I have a patient that I suspect might benefit from multidisciplinary weight management What do I do?
