PATINO PALMA, Brayan Esneider; TABARES GUTIERREZ, Miryam; VELEZ ALVAREZ, Consuelo e VIDARTE CLAROS, José Armando. DETERMINANTES SOCIALES DE LA SALUD, PREDICTORES DE LA CONDICIÓN FÍSICA EN ADOLESCENTES ESCOLARES. Investig. andina [online]. 2019, vol.21, n.39, pp.117-131. Epub 30-Jan-2021. ISSN 0124-8146.
Introduction:
Physical activity (AF in Spanish) is a factor that subdues health. In adults, the lack of AF is a determinant in cardiovascular risk; in children, the evidence of its effects is less, although there is a relationship between the development of obesity with factors of cardiovascular risk.
Objective:
To establish social determinants of health as predictors of a physical condition in school teenagers.
Method:
Descriptive and cross-sectional study with a sample of 339 previously selected students. We applied the Alpha Fitness guide to determine physical condition and a questionnaire about determinants.
Results:
84.4% of the school teenagers had an unhealthy physical condition. The determinants associated with the physical condition were the educational level of the father and smoking.
Conclusions:
An unhealthy physical condition was prevalent in the school teenagers. The educational level of the father and smoking were the predictive variables.
