Summary Introduction

To describe: The recommended approach to treatment for Person T based on a staged treatment plan for pediatric obesity.

Introduction: Pediatric obesity is a nutritional disorder that can cause serious health concern in affected children. Therefore, a systematic approach should be followed for proper assessment for nutritional intervention to treat them. The staged treatment is a four-stage based approach for the treatment of pediatric obesity. These stages are as follows:

1. Stage 1 (Prevention Plus).

2. Stage 2 (Structured Weight Management).

3. Stage3 (Comprehensive Multidisciplinary Approach).

4. Stage 4 (Tertiary Care intervention): this stage is for highly obese children who had previously failed other interventions.
