An observational study in Child Allergy and Allergic Reaction, sponsored by Children's Hospital Srebrnjak. Status unknown at 1 site in Croatia. Open to participants aged 1 Year to 6 Years, including healthy volunteers. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2023-02-08.
Sponsored by Children's Hospital Srebrnjak · Observational
By achieving effective cooperation between the Children's Hospital Srebrnjak (CHS), the Reference center for clinical allergology in children of the ministry of health, and IN2 Ltd., part of Constellation Software Inc., it is planned to develop an IT platform for the introduction of personalized balanced nutrition in kindergartens. The collected data which include the screening of the population, anthropometrical measurements, physical activity status, and medical examination, will be used to create a Registry of Allergies. Through the implementation of research activities, it is expected to develop an IT platform for personalized balanced nutrition of preschool children, which consists of a developed information system for continuous monitoring using a website and/or a mobile application.
This study will involve kindergarten children (aged 1-6 years). The research takes place in six different phases: 1) development of the information system and data integration, 2) classification of target groups of kindergarten children according to nutritional status, 3) anthropometric monitoring of the development of kindergarten children, 4) establishment of an electronic register of allergies, 5) implementation of an information platform in kindergartens, and 6) assessment of the validity of platform. The research will include a minimum of 450 participants from Split, Osijek and Zagreb County. Based on the completed standardized questionnaires the target groups of kindergarten children will be classified according to their nutritional status:
The children with allergological indication (c) will be sent for further specialist evaluation, diagonstics and nutritionist advice at CHS.
The investigators will monitor how many kindergarten children have developed food allergy, food intolerance and another allergy (eg. inhalation allergy). Children with another type of allergy will be the refference control.
1,914 studies on the registry are indexed under Hypersensitivity; 265 are open to participants now.
This study's planned enrollment of 450 is above the median of 115 across 479 observational studies indexed under Hypersensitivity.

Development of an IT platform for the introduction of personalized balanced nutrition in kindergartens
IT platform will enable electronic creation and distribution of daily menus, daily collection of information about the food consumed, collecting relevant data and sending nutrition guidelines and instructions to kindergartens and parents.In addition to the above, the system will enable data collection of anthropometric measurements and monitoring of physical activity and send feedback to parents about measurement results. The mentioned system will, among other things, establish a communication link between the Children's Hospital Srebrnjak and kindergartens, which will enhance the exchange of data in real time and the possibility of timely adjustment of the menu.
Time frame: 33 months
Differentiation between children with allergies from chlidren's intolerance to food and development of a Register of Allergies
The development of the Register of Allergies will provide pediatricians, general practitioners and specialists with personalized patient information which will ensure the application of appropriate health treatment and gudelines for identifying risk measures and allergic factors.
Time frame: 33 months
