Material and method. A description of the study sample was made analyzing the Foot Posture Index and Body Mass Index to 31 subjects of 8 years. The sports activity and the frequency with which it is performed have also been analyzed in addition to assessing whether they had orthopedic treatment.
Results. 50% of the sample have pronated feet. The Body Mass Index is higher in the male sex, 30% of the sample are overweight and 12% is obese.
Conclusion. It can’t be concluded that patients with a high Body Mass Index predispose to having one type of foot or another. The sports activity and the frequency with which it is performed decrease the BMI of the subjects, being this an effective prevention strategy against childhood obesity.
