Randomised controlled trial on the effect of exercise game on quality of life

GRANGERET Julie and AKPATI Kodjo

By 2022, 160 million children will be obese (WHO, 2024)

Childhood obesity is a growing problem worldwide

In France, 4% of children and adolescents aged 6-17 are obese (HAS, 2024).

An increase in BMI leads to a reduction in quality of life, which is reduced by weight, health problems and discrimination (Swallen and al., 2005).

Obesity has a negative impact on their quality of life

Physical activity is recognised as a way of improving quality of life.

Reduction in BMI and increase in quality of life, (José Aguilar-Cordero and al, 2021)

What is obesity?

Abdillahi, 2020

Cause :

WHO, 2024

• Diet (energy balance imbalance )

• Lack of exercise

• Family factors

• Psychological factors

Kumar Ahirwar and Singh, 2023

Recommendation: 60 minutes of moderate to intense daily physical activity, (HAS,2011)

Can a physical activity programme improve the quality of life of obese children by improving their physical health and well-being?

n = 150 excluded because they did not meet the inclusion criteria

n = 50 teenagers are eligible

n = 30 withdraw before the start of the study

overall population n = 20 randomized

sedentary + diet group n = 10

exercise game + diet group n = 10

n= 10 completed 90 days of follow-up

n= 10 completed 90 days of follow-up

PROTOCOL

n = 10

Duration: 90 days

Frequency: 5 x / week

Diet to watch

Time: 1 hour / day

No programme for physical activity

Dietetic workshop with parents once a month

ASSESSMENT

Quality of life

BMI

6MWT

VQ11 questionnaire adapted to obesity 11 questions which assess: - functional, - psychological - relational

Assessment of functional capacity

Transfer BMI to the reference body shape curve

BMI And Weight

RESULTS

Pre t0: No significant difference (p= 1.000 therefore p> 0.05) Post t90: Significant difference (p=0.037 therefore p<0.05)

p<0.05 p<0.01

Conclusion

BMI decreased in both groups, but more significantly in the gaming group

QOL increased significantly in both groups, but tended to be higher in the game group.

Only the game group significantly improved the distance covered during the test.
