目的：描述患有慢性健康问题的儿童的体重状况和体力活动水平以及与高体重指数相关的因素。方法：对患有和不患有慢性健康问题的三年级学生样本的数据进行描述性统计和回归分析。结果：患有哮喘、感觉和身体残疾的儿童比同龄人面临更大的超重风险。患有慢性疾病的儿童比同龄人看更多的电视，他们的父母报告说他们的身心健康状况较差。较高的体重指数与缺乏身体活动、西班牙裔和居住在城市地区、更多的非父母照顾安排、兄弟姐妹较少、社会经济地位较低、电视观看次数增加、哮喘以及父母身心健康状况不佳有关。结论：结果支持对所有患有慢性疾病的儿童进行以家庭为中心的护理，并采取干预措施来增加患有哮喘、感官和身体残疾的儿童的身体活动。
PURPOSE: To describe weight status and physical activity levels of children with chronic health conditions and factors associated with high body mass index.METHODS: Descriptive statistics and regression analysis were performed on data from a sample of third graders with and without chronic health conditions.RESULTS: Children with asthma, sensory and physical disabilities were at greater risk than peers for overweight status. Children with chronic health conditions watched more television than peers, and their parents reported poorer physical and mental health. Higher body mass index was associated with physical inactivity, Hispanic ethnicity and living in urban areas, more nonparental care arrangements, fewer siblings, low socioeconomic status, increased television viewing, asthma, and poor parental mental and physical health.CONCLUSIONS: Results support family-centered care for all children with chronic health conditions, and interventions to increase physical activity in children with asthma, sensory, and physical disabilities.
