The aim of the study was to assess children's exposure to tobacco smoke at home, at school and in public places, to study its risks and to educate parents about the dangers of passive smoking.
This is a survey conducted in October 2007 among children enrolled in pre-school and primary school in the city of Agadir, Morocco. The data was gathered by a written questionnaire completed by parents at home.
The survey covered 776 children. The response rate to the questionnaires was 88%. The father was a smoker in 28.9% of cases, against 0.7% for the mother. The prevalence of childhood exposure to tobacco was 34.1% at home, 36.4% in public places and 30.1% in schools. Concerning pregnant women, passive smoking and/or active was associated with a significantly increased risk of respiratory distress in newborn babies and hospitalisations in the neonatology department. In infant and child, involuntary inhalation of tobacco smoke involved an increased risk of sudden infant death syndrome and recurrent respiratory symptoms. However, its noxious effects were not found in the case of child asthma and tumour.
Passive smoking is a real public health problem and smoking is a dangerous but also a preventable source of pollution.
本研究的目的是评估儿童在家中、学校和公共场所接触烟草烟雾的情况,研究其风险,并向家长宣传被动吸烟的危害。
这是一项于2007年10月对摩洛哥阿加迪尔市学前和小学儿童进行的调查。数据通过家长在家中填写的书面问卷收集。
该调查涵盖了776名儿童。问卷的回复率为88%。父亲吸烟的情况占28.9%,母亲吸烟的情况占0.7%。儿童在家中接触烟草的患病率为34.1%,在公共场所为36.4%,在学校为30.1%。对于孕妇,被动吸烟和/或主动吸烟与新生儿呼吸窘迫风险显著增加以及新生儿科住院率显著增加有关。在婴幼儿中,非自愿吸入烟草烟雾会增加婴儿猝死综合征和反复出现呼吸道症状的风险。然而,在儿童哮喘和肿瘤方面未发现其有害影响。
被动吸烟是一个切实存在的公共卫生问题,吸烟是一种危险但也可预防的污染源。
