  • The Rating of Perceived Exertion—Pediatric (RPE-P) Scale

    Open AccessBrynn M LiaBraaten, Stacy Stolzman et al.ARTICLEChildren2023

    Physical activity is critical to functional rehabilitation for youth with chronic pain, which may be especially true for those with co-occurring obesity. To facilitate the development of physical activity interventions for youth with chronic pain, the newly developed "Rating of Perceived Exertion-Pediatric" scale was modeled after the widely used pain numeric rating scale-11. This study is an initial evaluation of the scale in a sample of adolesc…

  • Quantitative Sensory Testing in Adolescents with Co-Occurring Chronic Pain and Obesity

    Open AccessKeri R Hainsworth, Pippa M Simpson et al.ARTICLEChildren2020

    Factors such as gender, ethnicity, and age affect pain processing in children and adolescents with chronic pain. Although obesity has been shown to affect pain processing in adults, almost nothing is known about pediatric populations. The aim of this pilot study was to explore whether obesity alters sensory processing in adolescents with chronic pain. Participants were recruited from a chronic pain clinic (Chronic Pain (CP), n = 12 normal weight;…

  • A Pilot Study of Iyengar Yoga for Pediatric Obesity

    Open AccessKeri R Hainsworth, Xue Cheng Liu et al.ARTICLEChildren2018

    Obesity negatively impacts the kinematics and kinetics of the lower extremities in children and adolescents. Although yoga has the potential to provide several distinct benefits for children with obesity, this is the first study to examine the benefits of yoga for gait (primary outcome) in youths with obesity. Secondary outcomes included health-related quality of life (HRQoL), physical activity, and pain. Feasibility and acceptability were also a…

  • What Does Weight Have to Do with It?” Parent Perceptions of Weight and Pain in a Pediatric Chronic Pain Population

    Open AccessKeri R Hainsworth, Kristen Jastrowski Mano et al.ARTICLEChildren2016

    Tailored pain management strategies are urgently needed for youth with co-occurring chronic pain and obesity; however, prior to developing such strategies, we need to understand parent perspectives on weight in the context of pediatric chronic pain. Participants in this study included 233 parents of patients presenting to a multidisciplinary pediatric chronic pain clinic. Parents completed a brief survey prior to their child's initial appointment…
