A 45-minute virtual education was held that covered weight terminology, AAP guidelines, weight bias, stigma, etc. Pre-education surveys and 4-month post-education surveys were collected. The aim of this project was not met, post-surveys showed improvements in both confidence and practice. Beliefs did not illustrate improvement but illustrate how providers own perceived beliefs may affect treatment and management.}, url = {http://digitalcollections.ohsu.edu/record/42888}, }
