Introduction:The aim of the study was to analyse the deviations of the body posture and to assess the occurrence of spine deformities. Additionally, Body Mass Index in school children was related to the trend in postural deformities for different age groups (5-8 years old, n=112; 9-11 years old, n=205; 12-14 years old, n=212) as part of the project "Spine Lab", granted from the European Commission IPA founds, investigating the importance of public health issues. Methods:Body posture was measured using Contemplas 3D software analyser, based on video image trajectory and BIA weight scale (Tanita BC 420). Overall, 17 variables were assessed, and differences were confirmed using MANOVA analysis. Results:The results showed that there is a significant difference between age groups for the measured variables (F=9.27; p<0.01; η2=0.26), suggesting a moderate difference across the age span. Conclusion:The study results showed that there is a negative trend of increasing Body Mass Index within the first and youngest age group. The fact is that the trend of increasing deformity of the shoulder belt has been noted, often inclining towards the formation of milder forms of kyphotic posture. Other forms of deformity that are accentuated in the survey results are the negative trend of increasing pelvic rotation and pelvis rotation which inclines towards the formation of lordotic posture for all three age groups.Uvod: Namen študije je analiza odstopanj telesne drže in ovrednotenje pojava deformacij hrbtenice. Poleg tega je indeks telesne teže pri šoloobveznih otrocih povezan s trendom posturalnih deformacij pri različnih starostnih skupinah (5-8 let, n=112; 9-11 let, n=205; 12-14 let, n=212) Rezultati: Rezultati prikazujejo, da obstaja občutna razlika med starostnimi skupinami za izmerjene spremenljivke (F=9,27; p<0,01; η2=0,26)

Introduction:The spine related diseases have been increasing sharply and causing serious problems for public health. Having a postural assessment with one of the important factors in the prevention and/or treatment of these problems. Objectives: To determine which methods of spinal postural assessment has been used in studies and national journals published recently. Methods: This study is a systematic review, which followed the recommendations (PRISMA) "Transparent report of Systematic Reviews and Meta-analysis." The search data Began with the choice of key terms and synonyms following the Health Sciences Descriptors DeSC and MeSH (Medical Subject Headings). Due to achieve the main objective of the research, we selected only studies of national authors and journals published between the year 2013 to Feb/2014, yet fitting, made any kind of spinal postural assessment. Conducted a descriptive statistical checking the frequency percentages by software (IBM ® SPSS ® Statistic, vs 21, New York/USA 2012. Results: 25 studies were included, and the methods of evaluation were: photogrammetry (36.7%, n =11); Posturógrafo (16.7%, n=5); X-Ray (10%, n=3); Postural Visual Evalution (23.3%, n=7) Goniometry (3.3%, n=1). Conclusions: it is concluded between national studies photogrammetry is the postural assessment methods most used today. Keywords: Posture; Spinal Diseases; Measurement Equipment. ResumoIntrodução: As doenças relacionadas à coluna vertebral vêm crescendo abruptamente e gerando sérios problemas para saúde pública. Tendo a avaliação postural com um dos fatores importante na prevenção e/ou tratamento desses problemas. Objetivos: verificar quais métodos de avaliação postural da coluna vertebral vem sendo usados nos estudos e periódicos nacionais publicados recentemente. Métodos: Este é estudo de revisão sistemática, que seguiu as recomendações (PRISMA) "Transparent report of Systematic Reviews and Meta-análise". A busca de dados inciou-se com a escolha dos termos chaves e sinônimos seguindo os Descritores em Ciências da Saúde (DESC), e MeSH (Medical Subject Headings). Em virtude de atingir o objetivo principal da pesquisa, selecionaram-se apenas estudos de autores e periódicos nacionais publicados entre o ano de 2013 a Fev/2014, cabendo ainda, realizado qualquer tipo de avaliação postural da coluna vertebral. Realizou uma estatística descritiva verificando a frequência em porcentagens através do software (IBM® SPSS® Statistic, vs 21, Nova York/EUA, 2012. Resultados: Foram contemplados 25 estudos, e os métodos de avaliação encontrados foram: fotogrametria (36,7%, n=11); Avaliação Postural Visual (23,3%, n=7); Posturógrafo (16,7%, n=5); Raio-X (10%, n=3); Goniometria (3,3%, n=1). Conclusão: Conclui-se entre os estudos nacionais a fotogrametria é o métodos de avaliação postural mais utilizado atualmente. Palavras-Chave: Postura; Doenças da Coluna Vertebral; Equipamentos de Medição.

“…We chose the same method as most of the other studies because Fortin et al suggested that photograph acquisition is easy, cheap, and fast. Furthermore, you can obtain objective data, such as angle or distance (28).…”
