Resumo: | For nutritional and growth assessment, anthropometry plays an important role. Specific care for children and adolescents, described within this work, is needed in order to allow a correct evaluation of the situation. Due to the stage of growth and development of the child and adolescent population, an adequate choice of anthropometric variables, accuracy in measurement, and comparison with appropriate references that reflect the population or individuals to be evaluated are required. Anthropometry thus plays an important role in the daily clinical practice of the various professionals who evaluate the growth and nutritional status of children and adolescents, but it needs to be correctly used and interpreted. |

Em crianças e adolescentes são necessários cuidados específicos, que são descritos neste trabalho, de forma a permitir um correto diagnóstico da situação. A população infanto-juvenil, devido à fase de crescimento e desenvolvimento em que se encontra, requer, de acordo com o fim a que se destina, de uma escolha adequada das variáveis antropométricas, do rigor na medição, e da comparação com referências adequadas, que reflitam a população ou indivíduos a avaliar. A antropometria exerce assim uma função importante na prática clínica diária dos diversos profissionais que avaliam o crescimento e o estado nutricional das crianças e adolescentes, mas necessita de ser corretamente utilizada e interpretada.Biomedical and Biopharmaceutical ResearchRepositório ComumSousa, Bruno2021-09-23T14:54:39Z2017-022017-02-01T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10400.26/37554engBiomed Biopharm Res. , 2017; (14) 2: , 125-1422182-2360 (print)10.19277/bbr.14.2.155info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2023-11-10T02:18:28Zoai:comum.rcaap.pt:10400.26/37554Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T22:34:34.736689Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse |
