Active Health Management for Children

Explore a New Paradigm of Active Health Management for Children Based on Health Index

The purpose of this study was to develop a children's active health index based on the three main factors-the environment, lifestyle, and the physiological and behavioral traits of children of various ages. To acquire dynamic data, a prospective cohort research was carried out. Construct a dynamic digital health portrait to detect and warn children's health problems early, intervene in a timely manner, and explore a new paradigm of children's active health management.

Study Overview

• Status: Not yet recruiting
• Conditions: Child Development

Detailed Description

Under the guidance of the World Health Organization's (WHO) Global Strategy for Women's, Children's, and Adolescents' Health (2016-2030) and China's Child Development Programme (2021-2030), as well as the comprehension that the primary focus of medical care in the future will gradually shift from disease diagnosis and treatment to disease prevention and health management, this study will develop a children's active health index based on the three main factors-the environment, lifestyle, and the physiological and behavioral traits of children of various ages-and conduct a prospective child cohort study. Gather multi-dimensional children cohort data from many sources (medical facilities, schools, families, and communities) that covers physiological indicators, behavioral habits, dietary record, and so on. The meta-model of children's active health is built using ordinary differential equations in conjunction with digital intelligence technology, which enables real-time and all-around data collection, establishes dynamic digital health portraits for children, and dynamically monitors the health status of children as it varies over time and in response to environmental changes. The ultimate goal of this approach is to identify and warn children's health problems early on, implement timely intervention, and ultimately investigate a new paradigm of children's active health management.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure	Measure Description	Time Frame
Child Health Index	Child Health Index serves as a comprehensive metric to evaluate and measure how children actively maintain, promote, and enhance their own health status through positive lifestyles and healthy behaviors, with the goal of preventing the onset of diseases and delaying their progression. This index encompasses multiple aspects, such as children's dietary habits, exercise routines, sleep quality, and mental health status.	0-6 years

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure	Measure Description	Time Frame
Subitem Child Health Index	Child Health Index is a comprehensive index comprised of multiple subitem child health index, designed to thoroughly capture children's performance across diverse health dimensions.	0-6 years
