ABSTRACT

Introduction:

The frequency of obesity is increasing in our country and all over the world. Obesity can also increase mortality and morbidity by affecting vital vital systems such as the cardiovascular system and the respiratory system. In this sense, early recognition of obesity and prevention of complications are of vital importance. In our study, we aimed to evaluate the effects of adolescent obesity on patients with obesity and normal by compairing electrocardiography (ECG) and pulmonary function tests (PFT) findings.

Materials and Methods:

Adolescent cases between 10 and 18 years of age were included in our study. Cases were divided into three groups according to body mass index. ECG and PFT measurements of the patients were obtained and study data were obtained. The data were evaluated with SPSS package.

Results:

One hundred fifty six patients were included in our study. In our study, no significant difference was found between ECG parameters in terms of heart rate (p=0,107). When Qt and QTc groups were compared, a statistically significant difference was found (p<0.001). There was no significant difference in QT dispersion and QTc dispersion (p=0.314, p=0.624, respectively). There was a significant difference between the groups in terms of Tp-e (p<0.05). There was no significant difference between the groups in terms of Tp-e/QT ratio and Tp-e/QTc ratio (p=0.054 and p=0.058). When the values of FEV1, FEV1/FVC, PEF, FEF25-75 were compared, a statistically significant difference was found between all groups (p<0.001).

Conclusion:

In our study, we concluded that the effects of obesity on respiratory and cardiovascular system in adolescents can be determined by ECG and PFT and possible complications can be prevented.
