Quit Smoking NOW

The risks of ETS (Environmental Tobacco Smoke) are not simply restricted to the newborn infant. There are many childhood illnesses that are dramatically worsened by exposure to smoke. A 1994 study by Joan Cunningham and colleagues showed that there was an increased risk of colds, wheezing, shortness-of-breath, and emergency room visits by children living in households where there is a smoker. There is also a significant increase is the risk of ear infections in children who live in households where there are smokers.

Children born to mothers who smoke have a higher risk of developing asthma. Along with an increased risk of asthma, children of mothers who smoked during pregnancy will be at a greater risk of have problems with environmental allergies (e.g., hay fever). These effects can be seen in newborn infants as well as school-aged children.

There is definite evidence on health effects of environmental tobacco smoke (ETS) in the elderly and to discuss questions for future research. Health effects are divided into aetiological and prognostic studies. There is convincing evidence that ETS causes lung cancer and coronary heart disease, both of which are diseases of the elderly. Several cross-sectional studies show increased occurrence of chronic respiratory symptoms and deficits in ventilatory lung function in relation to ETS exposure at home and/or at work.

A limited number of studies have found significant relations between ETS exposure and asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), pneumococcal infections and stroke in the elderly. Longitudinal studies are needed before any definite conclusions can be made concerning ETS and noncarcinogenic respiratory diseases in the elderly.

The potential role of environmental tobacco smoke exposure as a prognostic factor determining development of a pre-existing respiratory or heart disease is an important new area for research.
