A obesidade é uma doença crônica complexa definida por adiposidade excessiva que pode prejudicar a saúde. Na maioria dos casos, é uma doença multifatorial devido a ambientes obesogênicos, fatores psicossociais e variantes genéticas. Em um subgrupo de pacientes, fatores etiológicos únicos podem ser identificados (medicamentos, doenças, imobilização, procedimentos iatrogênicos, doença monogênica / síndrome genética)._x000D_ O índice de massa corporal (IMC) é um marcador substituto da adiposidade calculado como peso (kg)/altura² (m²). As categorias de IMC para definir obesidade variam por idade e sexo em bebês, crianças e adolescentes. Para adultos, a obesidade é definida por um IMC maior ou igual a 30,0 kg/m². Existem três níveis de gravidade em reconhecimento das diferentes opções de gerenciamento. | |||
