Abstract

Childhood obesity has become a global health concern, with significant implications for the well-being of children and the healthcare system. The World Health Organization (WHO) defines childhood obesity as the excessive accumulation of body fat in children and adolescents, resulting in adverse health effects. It is a multifactorial issue influenced by genetics, environment, and lifestyle factors. Pediatric nurses play a crucial role in addressing childhood obesity by providing comprehensive care, education, and support to children and their families. This article explores the vital role of pediatric nurses in preventing, assessing, and managing childhood obesity, as well as promoting healthy lifestyles and long-term well-being.
