Resumen
Objetivo: Determinar la relación existente entre el uso del transporte activo y la capacidad cardiorrespiratoria en los estudiantes de 10 a 17 años en una institución pública de Paluato, corregimiento de Galapa, y en una privada de la ciudad de Barranquilla.
Materiales y Métodos: Estudio de corte transversal con enfoque cuantitativo en 770 estudiantes de la ciudad de Barranquilla, del corregimiento de Paluato (Galapa) y del municipio de Sahagún (Córdoba). Se aplicó una encuesta que midió las características sociodemográficas y académicas. Se midió el peso corporal, la talla y se calculó el IMC. El transporte activo se evaluó a través de una encuesta ad hoc que indagó sobre el tipo de transporte hacia y desde el colegio, la distancia y el tiempo gastado. Se midió el comportamiento sedentario. Se utilizó el cuestionario de ActivityGram. Se midió la capacidad cardiorrespiratoria a través del test Course-Navette.
Resultados: El 50,6% de la población de estudio eran niñas; y el 75% en el rango de edad de 14-17 años. 40,1% de los estudiantes se transporta hacia y desde la escuela de manera activa; 39,4% lo hace caminando. 34,8% realizan actividad física 60 minutos diarios durante los 7 días a la semana. El comportamiento sedentario fue mayor en las horas de clases (5,5±0,5 horas) y por el uso del celular (4,7±3,2 horas). Se encontró una correlación positiva entre la capacidad cardiorrespiratoria y el transporte activo en los niños y niñas de 13 años (r=0,45; p= 0,04); de 16 años (r=0,30; p=0,05); de 17 años (r=0,38; p=0,04).
Conclusiones: El transporte activo a la escuela se relaciona con la capacidad cardiorrespiratoria de los escolares de 13, 16 y 17 años estudiados.
Objective: To determine the relationship between the use of active transportation and cardiorespiratory capacity in students from 10 to 17 years of age in a public institution in Paluato, Galapa district, and in a private institution in the city of Barranquilla. Materials and methods: Cross-sectional study with a quantitative approach in 770 students from the city of Barranquilla, from the village of Paluato (Galapa) and from the municipality of Sahagún (Córdoba). A survey was applied that measured the sociodemographic and academic characteristics. Body weight and height were measured, and the BMI was calculated. Active transportation was assessed through an ad hoc survey that inquired about the type of transportation to and from school, the distance, and the time spent. Sedentary behavior was measured. The ActivityGram questionnaire was used. Cardiorespiratory capacity was measured through the Course-Navette test. Results: 50.6% of the study population were girls; and 75% in the age range of 14-17 years. 40.1% of students are actively transported to and from school; 39.4% do it walking. 34.8% do perform physical activity 60 minutes a day, 7 days a week. Sedentary behavior was higher during class hours (5.5±0.5 hours) and due to cell phone use (4.7±3.2 hours). A positive correlation was found between cardiorespiratory fitness and active transport in 13-year-old boys and girls (r=0.45; p= 0.04); 16 years old (r=0.30; p=0.05); 17 years old (r=0.38; p=0.04). Conclusions: Active transportation to school is related to the cardiorespiratory capacity of the 13, 16, and 17-year-old schoolchildren studied.
