The objective was to compare the pattern of exposure to second-hand smoke (SHS) among non-smokers in the general population and in hospitality workers.
We used the adult (16-64 years) non-smokers of two independent studies (general population and hospitality workers) in Spain. We assessed the exposure to SHS by means of questionnaire and salivary cotinine concentration.
The salivary cotinine concentration by sex, age, educational level, day of week of saliva collection, and exposure to SHS were always higher in hospitality workers than in the general population.
Our results indicated that non-smoker hospitality workers have higher levels of exposure to SHS than general population.
本研究旨在比较一般人群和酒店工作人员中不吸烟者接触二手烟(SHS)的模式。
我们使用了西班牙两项独立研究(一般人群和酒店工作人员)中的成年(16-64 岁)不吸烟者。我们通过问卷调查和唾液可替宁浓度来评估 SHS 的暴露情况。
按性别、年龄、教育程度、唾液采集日、SHS 暴露情况划分,酒店工作人员的唾液可替宁浓度均高于一般人群。
我们的研究结果表明,与一般人群相比,非吸烟酒店工作人员接触 SHS 的水平更高。
