Abstract: Objective To establish the normal values and curves of the vital capacity of children and adolescents in Shanghai,and to provide basis for monitoring the changes of Cardiopulmonary function of children and adolescents in the area.Methods Data for this study were obtained from cross-sectional surveys of 15 308 schoolchildren form 6 districts in 2014,using LMS method to establish the percentile values and curves.Results Sex,age-specific percentiles of P3,P5,P10,P15,P25,P50,P75,Ps5,Pg0,P95,P97 and curve of endurance running was calculated.The endurance running ability of 7-12 year old male and female students showed an upward trend in 2014,shanghai.The endurance running ability of 13-18 year old male and female students showed first rise and then decrease trend.The P85,Pg5 of all age groups were higher than that of the same period in China.The vital capacity level of students showed an gender and age characteristics.,7-12 year old boys and girls percentile curve basically the same,13-18 year old boys showed a sustained rise,13-15 years of age rose girls,after 15 years of decline,17 to 18 years old slightly increased.Conclusion The figure of the percentile of vital capacity of children and adolescents provides an intuitive evaluation method for the functional measurement of children and adolescents in this region.
