Expansion of the Weigh Smart Pediatric Group Family Oriented Weight Management Program Through the Use of Telehealth

Trial of the group program (nutrition, exercise) delivered via telehealth through fruit street on the Eastern Shore and Western Maryland with use of noninvasive lifestyle tracking options (drink water aquarium app for water consumption and fitbit - steps, sleep monitoring) provides novel options for expansion of family- based lifestyle intervention to underserved areas. We plan as a pilot study to assess the sensitivity of noninvasive measures for the detection of sleep apnea (pediatric sleep questionnaire (PSQ) and fitbit sleep data) in comparison to clinically indicated polysomnography among children with clinical suspicion for sleep apnea.
