The objective of the Canadian Pediatric Weight Management Registry (CANPWR) was to enroll and monitor children participating in weight management programs across Canada, and to characterize the metabolic and psychosocial comorbidities, to identify the determinants of these comorbidities, and examine whether these abnormalities change over time.

The CANPWR team examined subgroups of obese children, based on responsiveness to the current treatment paradigms, to identify potential ‘obesity phenotypes’.

The ultimate objectives of this study:

  • To improve the quality of weight management clinics across Canada
  • To identify what factors influence the success that CANPWR participants achieve in weight management programs.
