Overweight in adolescents has nearly tripled in the past two decades and has serious physical and psychosocial consequences, both during adolescence and into adulthood. School nurses have tremendous potential to identify, prevent, and treat overweight in this population, as over 95% of children and adolescents have contact with the school health system each year and school nurses have the credibility and skills to provide guidance regarding weight, diet and physical activity. However, to our knowledge there have been no randomized controlled school-based trials that have utilized the school nurse to deliver weight-related intervention to adolescents. In a RCT conducted by the investigators, we found a school nurse-delivered smoking cessation intervention was successful in assisting adolescent smokers to quit, being both feasible to deliver in the school health setting and very well received by adolescents.
