Abstract

This study explores the relationship between oxygen level and body mass index in middle-aged sedentary females.200 volunteer housewives residing in the center of Gaziantep were participated in the study. The participants’ BMI values were determined through calculating the ratio of body weight to square meters in height (weight/height2). Besides, the values of oxygen saturation weremeasured via a pulse oximeter. In the comparison of the oxygen saturation of the subjects in the study to the body mass index, the oxygen saturartion value of the subjects with a body mass index of 35 and above was significantly lower than the saturation value of the subjects with a body mass index of 30-34.9, 25-29.9, and 24 and less (P<0,05). Additionally, oxygen saturation values of subjects with a body mass index of 24 or less were significantly higher than those with a body mass index of 30-34.9 and body mass index of 35 or above (P <0.05). In conclusion, it has been determined that oxygen saturation levels in sedentary females are closely related to inflammation in metabolism caused by weight problems deriving from inactivity and irregular nutrition. It is fairly obvious that there will be significant improvements in the desaturations of oxygen saturation as a result of the positive effects of weight loss thanks to the exercises on the metabolism.
