Obezita je charakterizována jako závažné chronické onemocnění podílející se na vzestupu komorbidit, je samostatným rizikovým faktorem vzniku neinfekčních nemocí hromadného výskytu. Základním podkladem pro úspěšnou terapii je vhodně zvolený diagnostický algoritmus se zaměřením na hodnocení vybraných anamnestických, antropometrických, biochemických a laboratorních vyšetření. Pro klasifikaci tělesné hmotnosti a stanovení velikosti relativního rizika poškození zdraví se používá body mass index (BMI) a stanovení množství tělesného tuku s hodnocením jeho rozložení.

Obesity - disease, risk factor

Obesity is characterized as a serious chronic disease participating in increase of other diseases, it is independent risk factor for development of non-infectious diseases with mass incidence. The base for successful therapy is appopriate chosen diagnostic algorithm focusing on assessment of selected anthropometric, biochemical, anamnestic and laboratory examinations. For body weight classification and determination of relative risk to health we use body mass index (BMI) and determination of body fat quantity with assessment of its distribution.
