Criteria for childhood obesity

Criteria for childhood obesity

Obesity is gradually Student Health and medium-sized cities to become one of the issues, for a long time for my children and adolescents to determine obesity is no uniform standard indicators and existing indicators have Chien-fan, each with advantages and disadvantages, experts and scholars in all its Have seen.
The height (H) weight (W) index is the most commonly used one of its measurement, the advantages of simple calculation. Common measurement methods are as follows:
The first step: calculating the child's height and body mass index (referred to as "the weight-for-index"):
High body mass index = weight (kg) / height (cm) / weight-constant
Constant weight-table is as follows:
Age (years old) weight-constant (high constant weight)
Men women
3-year-old 0.150 0.142
4-year-old 0.154 0.149
5-year-old 0.161 0.155
6-year-old 0.169 0.165
7-year-old 0.177 0.171
8-year-old 0.188 0.183
9-year-old 0.200 0.192
10-year-old 0.212 0.210
11-year-old 0.225 0.232
12-year-old 0.248 0.250
13-year-old 0.270 0.277
14-year-old 0.294 0.286
15-year-old 0.309 0.297
16-year-old 0.325 0.302
17-year-old 0.333 0.299
18-year-old 0.342 0.308
19-year-old 0.351 0.314
The second step: the results and "re-high index" were:
Index heavy body weight status
<0.80 thin
0.80-0.89 too light
Normal 0.90-1.09
1.10-1.19 overweight
> 1.2 obesity
For example,
8-year-old boy, standing 110cm, weight 35kg, be regarded as a too fat?
A: The weight-for-weight = weight / height / weight-constant
35/110/0.225 =
= 1.4
> 1.2
Heavy weight!


儿童肥胖判定标准

肥胖正在逐步成为大中城市学生健康的问题之一,长期以来针对我国儿童青少年肥胖的判定尚无统一指标和标准,现有指标有简有繁,各有优缺点,专家学者们对其各持所见。
其中,身高(H)体重(W)指数是最为常用的一种,它具有测量、计算简便的优点。常见的测量方法如下:
第一步:计算孩子的身高体重指数(简称“重高指数”):
重高指数=体重(kg)/身高(cm)/重高常数
重高常数表如下:
年龄(岁)     重高常数(重高常数)
男     女
3岁        0.150    0.142
4岁        0.154    0.149
5岁        0.161    0.155
6岁        0.169    0.165
7岁        0.177    0.171
8岁        0.188    0.183
9岁        0.200    0.192
10岁        0.212    0.210
11岁        0.225    0.232
12岁        0.248    0.250
13岁        0.270    0.277
14岁        0.294    0.286
15岁        0.309    0.297
16岁        0.325    0.302
17岁        0.333    0.299
18岁        0.342    0.308
19岁        0.351    0.314
第二步:将计算结果与“重高指数表”对照:
重身指数    体重状况
<0.80      瘦弱
0.80-0.89     过轻
0.90-1.09     正常
1.10-1.19     过重
>1.2       过胖
举例
八岁男童,身高110cm、体重35kg,算不算太胖了?
答:重高体重=体重/身高/重高常数
=35/110/0.225
=1.4
>1.2
体重太重了!
