Resumo: AIMS: To determine the prevalence of overweight and obesity in children and adolescents in a healthcare unit in Canoas, Rio Grande do Sul, and to compare the nutritional diagnosis between the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) 2000 and World Health Organization (WHO) 2006 growth charts. METHODS: A descriptive cross-sectional study included patients from 5 to 18 years old, selected through review of the medical records, in which the last appointment with the consulting physician in the healthcare unit was between June 2007 and July 2008. Body mass index was assessed and analyzed by age and sex, and nutritional status was classified according to standard curves. RESULTS: Of the 272 patients included, 53.8% were teenagers and 56.9% were female. Prevalence of overweight was 14.4% by CDC charts and 18.4% by WHO charts. Prevalence of obesity was 15.6% according to both criteria, accounting for a total prevalence of excess weight of 30% or 33.8%. When genders were compared, prevalence of weight excess had no statistically significant difference. CONCLUSIONS: Prevalence of weight excess in this study was superior to those found in other similar studies. Unlike data from previous studies, boys did not have higher incidence of obesity when compared to girls in this study. When compared to the WHO 2006 chart, the CDC 2000 chart underestimated overweight and overestimated low weight.

MÉTODOS: um estudo transversal descritivo incluiu pacientes com idade entre 5 e 18 anos, selecionados através de revisão de prontuários, com última consulta médica no período entre junho de 2007 e junho de 2008. Foi avaliado o índice de massa corporal por idade e gênero e classificado o estado nutricional segundo curvas padrões. RESULTADOS: dos 272 pacientes analisados, 53,8% eram adolescentes e 56,9% eram do sexo feminino. A prevalência de sobrepeso foi de 14,4% pelo CDC e de 18,4% pela OMS; a de obesidade, 15,6% pelos dois critérios, totalizando uma prevalência de excesso de peso de 30% ou 33,8%, conforme o gráfico utilizado. Comparando-se o excesso de peso entre os gêneros, não houve diferença estatisticamente significativa. CONCLUSÕES: a prevalência de excesso de peso neste estudo foi superior à encontrada em outros estudos semelhantes. Não foi encontrada maior frequência de obesidade em meninos do que em meninas, ao contrário de dados da literatura. Quando comparada à curva da OMS 2006, a do CDC 2000 subestimou o diagnóstico de sobrepeso e superestimou o de baixo peso.Editora da PUCRS - ediPUCRS2010-10-19info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttps://revistaseletronicas.pucrs.br/scientiamedica/article/view/6462Scientia Medica; Vol. 20 No. 3 (2010); 228-231Scientia Medica; v. 20 n. 3 (2010); 228-2311980-61081806-5562reponame:Scientia Medica (Porto Alegre.
