Tabagismo no domicílio e doença respiratória em crianças menores de cinco anos

Abstract: A fumaça do tabaco no ambiente doméstico é o principal irritante do trato respiratório de crianças. Avaliaram-se os fatores associados aos sintomas e às enfermidades respiratórias, assim como a principal fonte de exposição ao tabagismo no domicílio de 2.037 crianças menores de cinco anos atendidas para vacinação em 10 dos 38 postos de saúde de Cuiabá, Mato Grosso, Brasil (aproximadamente duzentas crianças por posto). Exposição ao tabagismo, a morbidade respiratória e as características sócio-demográficas foram… Show more

“…Articles demonstrated the impact of secondhand smoking on children's health since the intrauterine stage, affecting negatively anthropometric measurements (weight, length, and head circumference) of newborns [37,44]. Parental smoking was also responsible for wheezing babies [35], ear infections and eye irritation [36] and history of respiratory diseases [42,45,47]. In the case control studies, children exposed to smoking show higher risk to develop the abovementioned diseases than those who are not exposed [35,36,39,40].…”

“…In the case control studies, children exposed to smoking show higher risk to develop the abovementioned diseases than those who are not exposed [35,36,39,40]. In addition, children living in crowded environments and poor housing conditions play a fundamental role in the causal chain of respiratory diseases [38,42,46]. As well, the use of a wood stove for cooking was responsible for a higher occurrence of recurrent wheezing [41].…”
