The smoking habits and knowledge and demographic characteristics of 380 pregnant patients in Belfast were investigated. Over half of the women smoked but only 11.5% stopped smoking after becoming pregnant in spite of the fact that almost 65% of them knew that smoking could have an effect on the baby. The study showed that some smokers changed their attitude to smoking before and after delivery and that little effort is being made by general practitioners to dissuade their antenatal patients from smoking. More emphasis on health education for school children is required and also more individual effort on the part of health professionals to dissuade women from smoking, especially when they are pregnant.
对贝尔法斯特380名孕妇的吸烟习惯、知识水平及人口统计学特征进行了调查。超过半数的女性吸烟，但尽管近65%的人知道吸烟可能会对胎儿产生影响，仍只有11.5%的女性在怀孕后戒烟。研究表明，一些吸烟者在分娩前后对吸烟的态度有所改变，而且全科医生在劝阻产前患者吸烟方面做得很少。需要更加重视对在校儿童的健康教育，健康专业人员也需要付出更多个人努力来劝阻女性吸烟，尤其是在她们怀孕的时候。
