Based on the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) guidelines, this book provides pediatricians with recommendations and advice for adequate treatment and management of obese and overweight young patients. The included BMI-percentile-for-age calculator supplies the right treatment strategy in accordance with AAP guidelines.
