Introdução: Segundo a OMS, a obesidade Ă© um dos mais sĂ©rios desafios da saĂșde PĂșblica
no sĂ©culo XXI e a sua prevalĂȘncia continua a aumentar. Crianças e adolescentes obesos ou
com excesso de peso tĂȘm tendĂȘncia a ser adultos obesos e maior probabilidade de
desenvolver doenças crónicas mais precocemente. Estudar fatores como a tipologia de
parto, o aumento de peso na gravidez, a idade gestacional e o peso ao nascer,
intercorrĂȘncias durante a gravidez, como diabetes gestacional, eclĂąmpsia ou prĂ©eclĂąmpsia, o tempo de aleitamento materno e o tempo de aleitamento materno exclusiva
podem ter influĂȘncia no desenvolvimento ponderal.
Assim, o estudo destes fatores e a sua influĂȘncia no desenvolvimento ponderal dos
adolescentes poderå permitir uma intervenção mais adequada na prevenção da obesidade
pediĂĄtrica, evitando a progressĂŁo expectĂĄvel para a obesidade na vida adulta,
desenvolvimento de doenças crónicas e morte prematura. O objetivo deste estudo foi
avaliar a prevalĂȘncia de obesidade e excesso de peso em adolescentes e a associação com
fatores perineonatais.
Metodologia: Estudo transversal, de cariz descritivo e com componente analĂtica dos
dados. Baseou-se na anĂĄlise dos processos clĂnicos de 131adolescentes e aplicação de
questionĂĄrios Ă s mĂŁes dos mesmos. Os resultados foram analisados no software estatĂstico
SPSS Âź - versĂŁo 27 para o Windows Âź e consideraram-se significativos para um p<0,05.
Resultados: Foi encontrada uma relação estatisticamente significativa (p<0,05) entre a
média de Z-score de IMC dos adolescentes frutos de gravidezes em que houve
intercorrĂȘncias, como a Diabetes Gestacional e estados hipertensivos. TambĂ©m foi
observado, que os adolescentes sem irmãos, tinham em médio, um Z-score de IMC
superior aqueles com irmĂŁos.
ConclusĂŁo: Este estudo mostra uma tendĂȘncia para que alguns fatores prĂ©, peri e pĂłsnatais influenciem o desenvolvimento ponderal das crianças e adolescentes. Ă imperativo
desenvolver esforços para a implementação de esquemas de prevenção e controlo do
excesso de peso e obesidade de forma cada vez mais precoce.
Introduction: Obesity is one of the most serious Public Health Challenges on the XXI century, and its prevalence keeps rising. Overweight or obese children and adolescents have a tendency to become overweight and obese adults. Variables like type of delivery, gestational weight gain, complications during the pregnancy and breastfeeding practices might have some influence on development of children and adolescents. Because of this, the study of these factors is highly important and will allow CHUCB to act at an early time and prevent the development of obesity in childhood and adolescence, avoiding the progression into obese adults, the development of non-communicable diseases and earlier death. Methodology: It is presented as a cross-sectional research, drafted in a descriptive and analytical component of data. Based on the analysis of the clinical files of 131 adolescents and the application of questionnaires to mothers in the study. The results were treated by SPSS software, version 27 for Windows Âź and were considered significant at p<0.05. Results: A statistically significant relation, (p<0,05), was found between the medium IMC Z-Score in adolescents and the pregnancies where Gestational Diabetes or Hypertension occurred. It was also observed that adolescents without siblings had, in average, a higher BMI Z-Score than those that had siblings. Conclusion: This study shows that some pre, peri and post-natal factors influence the weight development of children and adolescents. Itâs important to implement prevention measures and treatments at an earlier stage.
