Resumo: The increased incidence of childhood obesity is one of the most worrying topics today, as this is a condition that favors the onset of chronic diseases in adulthood, such as diabetes and hypertension. In the recent scenario of the pandemic of the new coronavirus, social isolation in conjunction with the closure of schools contributed significantly to the increase in the prevalence of overweight children, as there was a reduction in the routine practice of physical exercises and favored the consumption of hypercaloric foods with low nutritional quality. The study aimed to determine the rate of childhood overweight and obesity of patients seen from July to December 2020 in three Basic Health Units (BHU) in Cascavel/PR through a descriptive comparative method, using references from consultations before and after the pandemic. Body mass index (BMI) data from medical records of 213 children were evaluated. Of the total number of patients, 114 (53.5%) experienced weight gain during the pandemic. A significant portion of patients had an unbalanced diet and anxiety disorder was the associated comorbidity most reported by family members in the medical records. Several aspects of the research are in line with what was expected about the consequences of the pandemic, and the weight gain could be verified. It was concluded that there was an increase in the prevalence of overweight and/or obesity as a consequence of the changes imposed by the pandemic, more studies should be carried out to analyze the degree of future impairment of these children, also highlighting the assessment of mental health in this population.

En el escenario reciente de la pandemia del nuevo Coronavirus, el aislamiento social en conjunto con el cierre de las escuelas contribuyó significativamente al aumento de la prevalencia de niños con sobrepeso, pues hubo una reducción en la práctica rutinaria de ejercicios físicos y favoreció el consumo de alimentos hipercalóricos con baja calidad nutricional. El estudio tuvo como objetivo determinar la tasa de sobrepeso y obesidad infantil de los pacientes atendidos de julio a diciembre de 2020 en tres unidades básicas de salud (UBS) en Cascavel/PR a través de un método descriptivo comparativo, utilizando referencias de consultas anteriores y posteriores a la pandemia. Se evaluaron los datos del índice de masa corporal (IMC) de los registros médicos de 213 niños. Del total de pacientes, 114 (53,5%) experimentaron aumento de peso durante la pandemia. Una parte importante de los pacientes presentaba una dieta desequilibrada y el trastorno de ansiedad era la comorbilidad asociada más referida por los familiares en las historias clínicas. Varios aspectos de la investigación están en línea con lo esperado sobre las consecuencias de la pandemia y se pudo comprobar el aumento de peso. Se concluyó que hubo un aumento en la prevalencia de sobrepeso y/o obesidad como consecuencia de los cambios impuestos por la pandemia, se deben realizar más estudios para analizar el grado de afectación futura de estos niños, destacando también la valoración de salud mental en esta población.O aumento da incidência da obesidade infantil é uma das pautas mais preocupantes na atualidade, visto que esta é uma condição que favorece o aparecimento de doenças crônicas na fase adulta, como diabetes e hipertensão. No cenário recente da pandemia do novo Coronavírus, o isolamento social em união ao fechamento das escolas contribuiu significativamente para o aumento da prevalência de sobrepeso infantil, pois ocorreu redução na prática rotineira de exercícios físicos e favoreceu o consumo de alimentos hipercalóricos com baixa qualidade nutritiva. O estudo objetivou determinar o índice de sobrepeso e obesidade infantil de pacientes atendidos no período de julho a dezembro de 2020 em três Unidades Básicas de Saúde (UBS) de Cascavel/PR por meio de um método comparativo descritivo, utilizando referências de consultas anteriores e posteriores à pandemia. Foram avaliados dados do índice de massa corporal (IMC) de prontuários médicos referentes a 213 crianças. Do número total de pacientes, 114 (53,5%) apresentaram ganho de peso durante a pandemia. Uma parcela significativa de pacientes apresentava uma dieta desbalanceada e o transtorno de ansiedade foi a comorbidade associada mais relatada pelos familiares nos prontuários. Diversos aspectos da pesquisa estão de acordo com o esperado acerca das consequências da pandemia e o aumento de peso pôde ser comprovado. Concluiu-se que houve um aumento na prevalência de sobrepeso e/ou obesidade como consequência das mudanças impostas pela pandemia, mais estudos devem ser realizados para analisar o grau de comprometimento futuro dessas crianças, com destaque também para a avaliação da saúde mental nesta população.Research, Society and Development2022-10-07info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/3543310.33448/rsd-v11i13.35433Research, Society and Development; Vol. 11 No. 13; e268111335433Research, Society and Development; Vol. 11 Núm. 13; e268111335433Research, Society and Development; v. 11 n. 13; e2681113354332525-3409reponame:Research, Society and Developmentinstname:Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)instacron:UNIFEIporhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/35433/29700Copyright (c) 2022 Eduarda Xavier; Marise Vilas Boas Pescador https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessXavier, Eduarda Pescador , Marise Vilas Boas2022-10-17T13:43:46Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/35433Revistahttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/indexPUBhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/oairsd.articles@gmail.com2525-34092525-3409opendoar:2024-01-17T09:50:21.409632Research, Society and Development - Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)false
