Resumen
Resumen: El sobrepeso y obesidad son alteraciones nutricionales caracterizadas por el desequilibrio entre la ingesta calórica y el consumo de los mismos, además del depósito de grasa peri-visceral dando como resultado enfermedades tanto a corto como a largo plazo. El objetivo es determinar la presencia de factores de riesgo cardiovascular en niños y adolescentes con sobrepeso y obesidad, por género y grupos de edad.
Método: Es un estudio observacional, descriptivo, de corte transversal en donde se estudió 100 pacientes entre 5 y 15 años, de ambos sexos con exceso de peso. Se realizó valoración antropométrica, presión arterial y determinación analítica de parámetros bioquímicos como glicemia y lipidograma.
Resultados: La relación entre los factores de riesgo cardiovascular y el IMCz, es que estos se presentan con mayor predominio en aquellos pacientes que tienen un IMCz >+3, es decir en pacientes obesos.
Conclusión: Los menores atendidos en el Hospital El Empalme presentan factores de riesgo cardiovasculares asociados a la obesidad, siendo ésta una plataforma metabólica para enfermedades crónicas no transmisibles.
Background: Overweight and obesity are nutritional disorders characterized by an imbalance between caloric intake and consumption of the same, plus tank peri-visceral fat resulting in disease in both the short and long term. The objective is to determine the presence of cardiovascular risk factors in children and adolescents with overweight and obesity, gender and age groups. Method: IT is a retrospective, cross-sectional study of direct and indirect observation where 100 patients between 5 and 15 years, of both sexes are overweight study. Anthropometric assessment, blood pressure and analytical determination of biochemical parameters such as glucose and lipid profile was performed. Results: The relationship between cardiovascular risk factors and BMI z is that these occur most predominantly in patients who have a BMI z> +3, in obese patients. Conclusion: All children treated at the ¨El Empalme¨ Hospital have cardiovascular risk factors associated with obesity, which is one metabolic platform for non-communicable chronic diseases.
