Summary
This study tested a 'digi-physical' approach for families with children or teens living with obesity. Participants either received standard in-person care or a mix of digital tools (an app for tracking health and chatting with caregivers) plus fewer in-person visits. The goal was to see if the digital-physical combo worked as well as standard care for weight management over 12 months.
