Abstract

V originále

The aim of this study was to evaluate chest condition and intersexual differences in children from Bratislava region. The monitored group consisted of 334 measured children (160 boys and 174 girls) between six and 10 years. We performed anthropometric measurements, which included chest circumferences, transversal and anteroposterior chest diameter. Then we calculated thoracic index and chest area. The obtained results showed that boys in age of six to nine years achieve higher mean values in all investigated dimensions. Exception was in group of ten years old, where girls showed higher means in measured parameters. Regarding the thoracic index, majority of the children have flat or arched thorax, in some cases we found high values of thoracic index, which indicated that children have circular chest.
