“…In a survey of all children referred to a university based developmental clinic over the course of a year, only 5% were identified as NOT having a nutritional problem. (Ekvall, Ekvall & Frazier. 1993) The Nutrition Committee of the Canadian Paediatric Society (1994) states it is unacceptable not to treat undernutrition as evidenced by growth failure in children with neurodevelopmental disabilities.…”

Obesity Prevention for Individuals with Spina Bifida

2017

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Specific variables related to obesity and spina bifida include individual factors (i.e., body composition and measurement issues, energy needs, eating patterns, physical activity, and sedentary activity) family factors (i.e., parenting/family, peers), community factors (i.e., culture, built environment, healthcare and healthcare providers, and school), and societal factors (i.e., policy issues). Due to the complex etiology of obesity and its increased prevalence in individuals with spina bifida, it is critical to initiate prevention efforts early with a multifactorial approach for this at-risk population. Increased research is warranted to support these efforts.
