August 10, 2022 updated by: Jamey Schmidt, California Pacific Medical Center Research Institute
The study is designed to determine if instituting a Healthy Beverage Initiative (HBI) at hospitals influences health and wellness of employees over a 12 month period.

Study Overview

Status

Active, not recruiting

Conditions

Intervention / Treatment

Detailed Description

To examine whether HBI is associated with decreased adiposity over a 12-month time period, in comparison to individuals identically assessed but not exposed to a HBI. Specifically, do those exposed to the HBI decrease in measures of adiposity, BMI, and sugar sweetened beverage (SSB) intake? Do they decrease more in those measures as compared to those not exposed to the HBI?

About one year.
Abdominal adiposity
Time Frame: About one year.
Study participants at HBI campuses will show improvements (specifically, decreases) in indices of abdominal adiposity measured using sagittal abdominal diameter in centimeters.
About one year.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
