2 Anthropometric Assessments
Comparison of Anthropometric measures to normative data. Measures intended to reflect growth and/or body composition. Reliable measurement of standardized techniques essential. Appropriate norms?

3 C.F.S. - Canada Fitness Survey 1981 Canadian Fitness and Lifestyle Research Institute
The 1981 Canada Fitness Survey was the first nationally representative study of the physical recreation habits, physical fitness, and health status of an entire population. More than 23,000 Canadians aged 7 and older participated in this historic survey, providing baseline data representing all Canadians except the 3% not living in households. The anthropometric and performance data was then used as the normative data for the Canadian Standardized Test of Fitness

4 C.S.T.F. Canadian Standardized Test of Fitness Performance Tests
Step test, grip strength, push ups, sit ups, sit and reach. Anthropometric Assessment consisted of: % body Fat determined by the Durnin & Womersley equations based upon the sum of 4 skinfolds (Triceps, Subscapular, Biceps, and Iliac Crest)

5 Durnin & Womersley (1974) Density = a (log10Sum 4 SF) + c Sum of Triceps, Subscapular, Biceps, and Iliac Crest Skinfolds a & c dependent upon age and gender specific equations British sample measured on the left side of the body % Fat = (4.95/Density)-4.5) x 100 Problems encountered by C.S.T.F. Overpredicts by 3 - 5% Fat Upper body sites

6 C.S.T.F. Canadian Standardized Test of Fitness
Revised Anthropometric Assessment included: Body Mass Index Sum 5 Skinfolds Sum Trunk Skinfolds Waist to hip girth ratio

7 C.P.A.F.L.A. The Canadian Physical Activity, Fitness & Lifestyle Approach
Modification of the C.S.T.F. Change in style – Rather than using Health Risk Zones, Health Benefit Zones were identified Anthropometric Assessment includes: Body Mass Index (BMI) Sum of Five Skinfolds (mm) (SO5S) Waist Girth (cm) (WG) Sum of Two Trunk Skinfolds (mm) (SO2S) C.P.A.F.L.A. was taught in BPK 343 now it is C.S.E.P. PATH

8 CSEP-PATH 2013 Physical Activity Training for Health
Skinfolds removed Subject embarrassment Measurer training Waist Girth definition changed Girth at the level of the top of the iliac crests Justified as more reliably located and better related to health consequences Requires landmarks

9 Advanced O-SCALE System
for individual physique assessment

10 Developed to fill a need
% body fat predictions have unacceptably high S.E.E.’s Individual assessments vs group validation Designed with the expectation of becoming obsolete very soon

11 Components Anthropometric measures Geometric scaling
Height, Weight, Skinfolds, Girths, Humerus and Femur width Geometric scaling Maintain shape and composition General appraisal of physique A and W ratings Detailed appraisal Size and Proportionality Profiles

12 STANINE chosen for O-SCALE system based upon number of categories and equal width of categories
Stanine Category 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 Percentage of Normal Distribution within Category 4% 7% 12% 17% 20% Boundary Z-Scores -1.75 -1.25 -0.75 -0.25 +0.25 +0.75 +1.25 +1.75 Boundary Percentiles 11 23 40 60 77 89 96

13 General description of physique
Adiposity rating based on skinfolds Proportional weight rating Stanine scores equal width of categories nine categories seemed appropriate

14 Adiposity Rating Proportional Sum of six skinfolds
Sum 6 SF * (170.18/Ht) Comparison to age and sex specific norms via stanine scale

15 Females 23 year old female Prop. Sum of 6 skinfolds = 79.4 Adiposity (A) rating = 3

16 Proportional Weight Rating
WT * (170.18/HT)3 Comparison to age and sex specific norms via stanine scale

17 Females

18 A & W Ratings A = 7, W = 7, - Balanced physique
A = 7, W = 5, - Adiposity dominant A = 5, W = 7, - Weight dominant

42 Anthropometric Assessment of Special Populations
bpk 303 Anthropometric Assessment of Special Populations

43 What is a Special Population?
One that can not be assessed by orthodox methodology Body Composition % Fat estimates tend to be very sample specific Anthropometric Assessment Are standardized techniques still valid in special groups

44 Which Measures are OK? Validity & Feasibility
Can the standardized measurement position be achieved Recumbent or seated subjects Can other conditions of standardization be achieved Deformities or Contractures

45 Seniors who can not stand
Estimated required caloric intake based upon age, height & weight Predicting Height from Knee Height Men (0.04 x age) + (2.02 x Knee Height) Women (0.24 x age) + (1.83 x Knee Height) Predicting Weight from Girths & Skinfolds Men (arm girth) (calf girth) (subscapular skinfold) Women (arm girth) (calf girth) (subscapular skinfold)

46 Cerebral Palsy vs Down’s Syndrome
Norms Available? Cerebral Palsy vs Down’s Syndrome Which groups warrant their own norms

47 Treatment and Rehabilitation of Children with cerebral palsy, brain injuries and other neuromotor problems

49 Pediatric Anthropometry
Assessment of Nutritional Status of Children Children with developmental disabilities are at increased nutritional risk because of: feeding problems, abnormal levels of physical activity and altered weight and growth patterns.

50 Cerebral Palsy Two main problems:
Presence of muscular contractures, spasms and scoliosis often lead to inaccuracy for measurements of height or recumbent length Body part splints, braces or wheelchair accessories do not permit easy access for anthropometric measures.
