Obesity, Childhood
Conditions
Brief summary
In obese adolescents, the severity of obesity should not influence the outcome of resting PFT. The amplitudes of the rest PFT should make it possible to predict the performance achieved while exercising on a cycloergometer. We wish to highlight the presence of a significant correlation, probably low, between some respiratory parameters at rest, and cardio-vascular parameters at the exercise.

Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
* Children aged \>12 y.o and \<18 y.o * BMI \> 30 * with a previous pulmonary function test (PFT) available in the medical record
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Correlation between resting respiratory parameters and cardio-respiratory parameters at exercise | Day 1 | Correlation between resting respiratory parameters: total lung capacity (TLC), forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1), forced vital capacity (FVC) and cardio-respiratory parameters at exercise: maximal oxygen uptake (VO2 max), power achieved during incremental testing (Pmax), blood gas, at the time of the pulmonary function test. |
