Main Article Content
Introduction: the inadequate postural attitude of students has increased due to deficiencies in the anatomical structures that affect their psychomotor development.
Objective: to characterize the variables that cause risk factors in relation to the postural attitude of fifth and tenth grade students at Colegio Siervas de San José and influence their health condition.
Materials and methods: Cross-sectional descriptive study, where the variables postural attitude, number of hours in a sitting position, number of hours of physical activity and weight of the suitcase were analyzed; In addition, anthropometric characteristics were taken into account. 75 students between the ages of 10 and 19 in fifth and tenth grade were included. Results: it was found that the population under study maintained an inadequate postural attitude, predominating the anterior sitting posture, trunk inclination, neck, spine and knee flexion at more than 90 degrees; 64% of the students do not exceed the weight of the suitcase in relation to their body weight, in addition the students do not perform physical activity during breaks, on the contrary, they prefer to continue in a seated position or in a supine position.
Conclusions: the characterization of the variables allowed us to identify the inappropriate habits adopted, consequent to the origin of risk factors, in relation to the school environment and health condition. On the other hand, it is suggested to continue with studies that more closely identify the behavior of these variables.
