Pediatric Obesity Weight Evaluation Registry (POWER) Study

All patients 18 years of age or younger who have completed an initial medical assessment
between March 1, 2014 through April 30, 2020 will be approached for this study.

Data from individual follow up visits or group intervention sessions, depending on the
program design of each institution, will be collected through October 31, 2020. The data
included in this study will be collected during routine medical care. Information that could
identify a participant will be removed from the data. Data will be entered into a secure
database called Medidata Rave® CDMS. This database will be managed by the Data Coordinating
Center (DCC) at Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center (CCHMC).

The DCC will combine all the data from each site. Additional data cleaning and data quality
monitoring will be performed. Combined datasets for analysis will be provided by the DCC in a
format agreed upon by the POWER Governance Board. Data will be stored in a secure and
protected format and will not include any written or electronic protected health information
(PHI/EPHI). The DCC will store the data on a secure server.
