Abstract

Definicija pretilosti nije jednostavna, prvenstveno zbog različitih struktura tijela i koštano-mišićne građe pojedinaca, no mnogi autori složili su se da pretilost označava prekomjernu količinu masnog tkiva u organizmu. Danas se pretilost naziva bolešću i liječi se raznim terapijama i uz pomoć stručnih osoba. Ta bolest ne nastaje samo zbog nepažnje pri jelu već i zbog mnogih drugih faktora koji utječu na čovjeka. Kao najvjerodostojnija tehnika mjerenja masnog tkiva u tijelu nametnuo se indeks tjelesne mase odnosno ITM. On se dobiva dijeljenjem tjelesne mase izražene u kilogramima i kvadrata tjelesne visine izražene u metrima. Uzroci su pretilosti višestruki. Najčešći je uzrok pretilosti nerazmjeran prekomjerni kalorijski unos i slaba tjelesna aktivnost. Komplikacije pretilosti su brojne. Praktički nema organa i organskog sustava gdje se ne mogu javiti komplikacije. Debljina je povezana s nastankom najčešćih kroničnih nezaraznih bolesti današnjeg svijeta koje su odgovorne za oko 60% smrtnih slučajeva. Cilj je rada anketnim upitnikom istražiti stavove roditelja o utjecaju pretilosti na zdravlje i kvalitetu života djece predškolske dobi.

Abstract (english)

The definition of obesity is not simple, primarily due to the different body structures and musculoskeletal structure of individuals but many authors have agreed that obesity refers to an excessive amount of adipose tissue in the body. Today, obesity is called a disease and it is treated with various therapies and with the help of professionals. This disease occurs not only due to carelessness when eating but, also due to many other factors that affect a person. The body mass index or BMI was imposed as the most reliable technique for measuring body fat. It is obtained by dividing body weight expressed in kilograms and squares of body height expressed in meters.
The causes of obesity are multiple. The most common cause of obesity is disproportionate excessive caloric intake and poor physical activity. The complications of obesity are numerous. There are practically no organs and organ systems where complications cannot occur. Obesity is associated with the onset of the most common chronic non-communicable diseases of today’s world, which are responsible for about 60% of deaths. The aim of this paper is to use a questionnaire to investigate parents' attitudes about the impact of obesity on the health and quality of life of children.
