The effect of exercise with AR glasses on metabolic parameters and anthropometric measurements in obese adolescents

This study was planned as a randomized controlled experimental study to determine the effect of exercise with Augmented Reality Goggles (AR) on metabolic parameters and anthropometric measurement values in obese children aged 10-19 years. The study will be conducted with children diagnosed with obesity between the ages of 10-19 years who are followed up in the Pediatric Endocrinology Outpatient Clinic of Erciyes University Health Application and Research Center Fevzi Mercan-Mustafa Eraslan Children's Hospital. According to the sample calculation, a total of 20 obese children aged 10-19 years (AR exercise group=10 and control group=10) will be included in the sample of the study. The data of the study will be collected using the Descriptive Characteristics Form for Obese Children and Their Families, Serum and Urine Biochemistry Values Form, Anthropometric Measurement Values Form, Augmented Reality Goggles, Body Composition Analyzer, Caliper, Tape Measure and Digital Height and Weight Measurement Device. Ethics committee permission was obtained from "Erciyes University Clinical Research Ethics Committee" and institutional permission was obtained from ERU Health Practice and Research Center Mustafa Eraslan Fevzi Mercan Children's Hospital. Hypothesis tests, correlation and regression analyzes will be applied according to the suitability of the data for normal distribution. As a result of the study, it is expected that exercise application with AR glasses will improve metabolic parameters and anthropometric measurement values in obese children.
