dc.description.abstractINTRODUCTION: SURVEILLANCE AND MONITORING THROUGH ANTHROPOMETRIC MEASUREMENTS IN A SPECIFIC POPULATION IS ESSENTIAL TO ANALYZE TRENDS AND PREVALENCE'S OF NUTRITIONAL STATUS. OBJECTIVE: TO DETERMINE IF THE WEIGHT INDEX (PI) IS A BETTER INDICATOR TO EVALUATE THE NUTRITIONAL STATUS WITH RESPECT TO THE BODY MASS INDEX (BMI) IN ADOLESCENTS LIVING AT MODERATE ALTITUDE IN PERU. METHODS: A COMPARATIVE DESCRIPTIVE STUDY WAS CARRIED OUT IN ADOLESCENTS LIVING AT MODERATE ALTITUDE. 415 ADOLESCENTS IN AN AGE RANGE BETWEEN 10 TO 15.9 YEARS WERE SELECTED IN A NON-PROBABILISTIC WAY. WEIGHT, STANDING HEIGHT, SITTING HEIGHT AND WAIST CIRCUMFERENCE (WC) WERE EVALUATED. THE BMI, PI, WAIST-HEIGHT INDEX (ICE) AND THE STATE OF MATURITY WERE CALCULATED BY APHV (YEARS OF PEAK HEIGHT VELOCITY). BMI AND PI (LOW, NORMAL, OVERWEIGHT AND OBESITY) DETERMINED THE NUTRITIONAL CATEGORIES. RESULTS: THERE WERE SIGNIFICANT DIFFERENCES IN BOTH SEXES BETWEEN THE MEAN VALUES OF CC AND ICE IN THE FOUR NUTRITIONAL CATEGORIES WHEN THEY WERE CLASSIFIED BY PI (P
