大學生身體組成調查－以某科技大學護理系與呼吸照護系學生為例

本研究目的為探討某科技大學護理系及呼吸照護系學生身體組成現況。以南部某科技大學護理系(n=100)與呼吸照護系學生(n=67)為研究對象。以生物電阻法進行身體組成測量，測量項目包含三部分：一、身體組成評估（體重、身體質量指數、體脂肪重量、體脂肪百分比、肌肉重量）；二、腹部肥胖分析（內臟脂肪程度、內臟脂肪面積、腹部肥胖率（腰圍比）、內臟脂肪重量、皮下脂肪重量）；三、營養評估，以t 檢定及卡方檢定進行資料分析。結果：呼吸照護學系學生體脂肪百分比、腹部肥胖率、內臟脂肪程度與內藏脂肪面積，顯著高於護理系學生。護理系學生礦物質攝取量顯著低於呼吸照護學系學生。結論：呼吸照護學系學生體脂肪百分比與腹部肥胖顯著高於護理系學生。建議可進一步探討造成兩科系身體組成差異的原因，並提供後續相關健康促進活動，鼓勵學生參與將有助於改善身體組成現況。

This study aimed to investigate the body composition among nursing and respiratory care students at a Technology University of Southern Taiwan. A sample of Nursing (n=100) and respiratory care students (n=67) was conducted. Bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) was used to measurement the body composition, including three parts: body composition (weight, body mass index, body fat mass, body fat percentage, muscle mass), abdominal obesity (visceral fat level, visceral fat area, abdominal obesity (waist circumference ratio), the weight of visceral fat, subcutaneous fat by weight) and nutrition. T-test and chi-square test were used to analyze the collected data. Results: Respiratory care students had significantly higher body fat percentage, abdominal obesity rate, visceral fat level, and subcutaneous fat area than the nursing students. However, nursing students had a significantly lower intake of the mineral than the respiratory care students. Conclusion: Respiratory care students were significantly higher than nursing students in body fat percentage and abdominal obesity. Further study is warranted to explore the reasons that induce the difference of body composition between different department students. Moreover, provide and encourage students to participate in health promotion activities. It will be helpful to improve the body composition among students.
