Obesity, Childhood / Physical activity on prescription (PAP) · Interventional Study
ClinicalTrials.gov · August 19, 2026
Early or partial results. Treat as a signal, not a conclusion.
This is a single-arm feasibility trial evaluating physical activity on prescription (PAP) in 42 children with obesity. The study measures physical activity level, BMI, metabolic markers, quality of life, and implementation outcomes (coherence, cognitive participation, collective action, reflexive monitoring) over 12 months. No results are reported in this registry record.
Interventional, Single Group, Open label, Treatment purpose. Obesity, Childhood; age from 6 Years; to 12 Years. Intervention: Physical activity on prescription. n = 42. 1 site: Sweden.

Safety was not reported in the material analysed. Check the source before drawing any conclusion about harm.
Results are not yet reported in this registry record. Once published, findings on feasibility and clinical outcomes of PAP in children could inform whether a larger controlled trial is warranted and guide implementation in pediatric obesity settings.

Graded across the dimensions that decide whether you should act, each from what the source actually supports. There is no single score, and where a dimension was not assessed it says so.
What is missing. This record has no key findings. That is a gap in the analysis, not a judgement about the study.
Registry record from ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT04847271). This is a study registration, not published results. Lead sponsor: Vastra Gotaland Region. Recruitment status: COMPLETED. Phase: NA. Study type: INTERVENTIONAL. Enrollment: 42 participants (ACTUAL). Conditions: Obesity, Childhood. Interventions: BEHAVIORAL: Physical activity on prescription (PAP). Primary outcome measures: Change in physical activity level , 4, 8, 12 months after baseline. Brief summary: Background: physical inactivity is a main cause of childhood obesity. Physical activity on prescription (PAP) is an evidence-based intervention for adults, but has not been evaluated in children with obesity. Aim: to evaluate the feasibility of a PAP intervention for children with obesity by assessing both clinical patient outcomes and implementation outcomes. Method: a single-arm clinical trial in which children with obesity participate in a 4-month PAP intervention. Measurement points are baseline and 4 months, with long-term follow-ups at 8 and 12 months. Population: children with obesity. Intervention: physical activity on prescription (PAP). Patient outcomes: physical activity level/pattern (including sedentary time), BMI, waist circumference, metabolic risk markers, health-related quality of life, self-efficacy for physical activity, motivation for physical activity. Implementation outcomes: coherence, cognitive participation, collective action, and reflexive monitoring in relation to PAP (the four core constructs of the Normalization Process Theory); appropriateness, acceptability and feasibility of PAP; barriers and facilitators for implementing PAP; recruitment and attrition rates, and intervention fidelity and adherence.
