An interventional study of Day Hospital Multidisciplinary Care and Full-Time Inpatient Multidisciplinary Care in Severe Adolescent Obesity, Adolescent Obesity and Pediatric Obesity, sponsored by Fondation Santé des Étudiants de France. Not yet recruiting. Open to participants aged 12 Years to 20 Years. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2026-06-16.
Sponsored by Fondation Santé des Étudiants de France · Not applicable, Interventional, and Treatment
This multicenter prospective quasi-experimental study aims to compare the effectiveness of day hospitalization versus full-time hospitalization for adolescents with severe obesity. The primary outcome is the change in BMI z-score measured six months after the end of treatment.
This study evaluates two healthcare delivery models for adolescents with severe obesity: day hospitalization and full-time hospitalization. It examines clinical, biological, psychological, and social outcomes, as well as patient satisfaction and predictors of response. The objective is to identify patient profiles that benefit most from each treatment modality to optimize care pathways

Multidisciplinary day hospital program for adolescents with severe obesity, including medical follow-up, nutritional counseling, physical activity, and psychological support, provided during daytime without overnight stay.
Other: Day Hospital Multidisciplinary Care
Multidisciplinary full-time hospitalization program for adolescents with severe obesity, including medical follow-up, nutritional counseling, physical activity, and psychological support, provided with continuous inpatient care.
Other: Full-Time Inpatient Multidisciplinary Care
Adolescents with severe obesity involved in a day hospital program following standard multidisciplinary care will receive treatment as usual, including medical monitoring, nutritional counseling, physical activity, and psychological support provided during daytime sessions without overnight stay.
subjects with Anorexia Nervosa (AN) involved in a day hospital or an inpatient program following HAS guidelines for anorexia nervosa treatment (treatment as usual) who will receive in addition an adapted physical activity program (one lesson per week, during 8 weeks) Adapted Physical Activity program, including psychoeducation on both problematic physical activity and consequences in terms of physical activity good practice leads to a better outcome among persons suffering from anorexia nervosa.
hange in BMI z-score
BMI z-score calculated based on weight, height, sex, and age
Time frame: From date of admission (baseline, T0) until the first occurrence of [event of interest], assessed up to 9 months after inclusion.
Pain intensity assessed using Visual Analog Scale (VAS)
Pain intensity will be measured using a 0-10 Visual Analog Scale, where 0 indicates no pain and 10 indicates worst imaginable pain.
Time frame: Baseline and end of treatment (3 months)
Quality of life assessed using the SF-36 questionnaire
Quality of life will be assessed using the Short Form-36 (SF-36), which includes 8 domains. Scores range from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating better quality of life.
Time frame: Baseline and end of treatment (3 months)
Anxiety and depression assessed using the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS)
The HADS questionnaire consists of 14 items, with two subscales (anxiety and depression), each ranging from 0 to 21. Higher scores indicate greater symptom severity.
Time frame: Baseline and end of treatment (3 months)
Fatigue assessed using the Fatigue Severity Scale (FSS)
Fatigue will be measured using the Fatigue Severity Scale, consisting of 9 items rated on a 1 to 7 scale. Higher scores indicate greater fatigue severity.
Time frame: Baseline and end of treatment (3 months)

Start is estimated for Oct 2026; primary completion for Oct 2027, 12 months later.
Of 539 non-industry interventional studies with no phase under Pediatric Obesity, half reached primary completion within 25 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 11 and three quarters within 45. This study's planned 12 months is below that.
Counting every sponsor, half of 541 studies reached it within 25 months; a quarter within 11 and three quarters within 45.
