To examine factors associated with smoke exposure among pregnant women in rural India.
We conducted a survey of exposure to second-hand smoke (SHS) and solid fuel smoke (SFS) among 736 pregnant women. Odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) were computed using logistic regression models to assess the relationship between demographic variables and exposure to SHS and to SFS.
While few respondents smoked cigarettes, 19.9% of women and 27.8% of children were frequently or always exposed to SHS, and 43.5% were at high and 46.7% at medium risk for SFE. Low educational levels and illiteracy were associated with exposure.
Smoke exposure is a serious health risk for many poor women and children in India.
研究印度农村地区孕妇接触烟雾的相关因素。
我们对736名孕妇进行了二手烟(SHS)和固体燃料烟雾(SFS)接触情况的调查。使用逻辑回归模型计算比值比(OR)和95%置信区间(CI),以评估人口统计学变量与SHS和SFS接触之间的关系。
虽然很少有受访者吸烟,但19.9%的女性和27.8%的儿童经常或总是接触二手烟,43.5%的人面临SFE的高风险,46.7%的人面临中等风险。低教育水平和文盲与接触有关。
烟雾接触对印度许多贫困妇女和儿童构成严重的健康风险。
