Introduction
Environmental conditions cause about 20% deaths of children below 5 years globally.
It also affects infants development.
It can also lead to brain damage.
This presentation will focus on exposure of second hand smoking for infants and children.
Overall child mortality declined significantly in the 1990s, but environmental hazards still
kill at least 3 million children under age 5 every year. Such young children make up
roughly 10 percent of the world’s population, but comprise more than 40 percent of the
population suffering from health problems related to the environment. Children
worldwide require special protection from longstanding risks such as smoke from
traditional fuels and from emerging risks such as exposure to an increasing number of
hazardous chemicals. Perinatal conditions, which can be influenced by environmental
conditions, cause 20 percent of deaths worldwide in children under age 5. Furthermore,
fetal exposure to chemicals such as lead increases a child’s chances of having brain
damage or developmental problems. Children at all ages, not just the very young, are at
greater risk than adults. Children under age 5 breathe more air, drink more water, and
eat more food per unit of body weight than adults do, so they may experience higher
rates of exposure to pathogens and pollutants.

Dangers of Secondhand Smoke
Secondhand smoke has more than 7,000 chemicals.
Most of these chemicals are deadly and very harmful.
More than 70% of these chemicals can cause cancer.
About 1,000 deaths are caused when mothers smoke while pregnant.
Secondhand smoke is the combination of smoke from the burning end of a cigarette and
the smoke breathed out by smokers. Secondhand smoke contains more than 7,000
chemicals. Hundreds are toxic and about 70 can cause cancer. Smoking during pregnancy
results in more than 1,000 infant deaths annually.Breathing secondhand smoke interferes

with the normal functioning of the heart, blood, and vascular systems in ways that
increase the risk of having a heart attack. Chemicals in secondhand smoke appear to
affect the brain in ways that interfere with its regulation of infants’ breathing.

Health Effects of Secondhand Smoke
Ear infections
Frequent cough and asthma.
Infections of the respiratory system
Sudden infant death syndrome
Cancer
There is no risk-free level of exposure to secondhand smoke. Secondhand smoke causes
numerous health problems in infants and children, including more frequent and severe
asthma attacks, respiratory infections, ear infections, and sudden infant death syndrome
(SIDS). There is no risk-free level of exposure to secondhand smoke (American Cancer
Society, 2015). Secondhand smoke causes numerous health problems in infants and
children, including more frequent and severe asthma attacks, respiratory infections, ear
infections, and sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS).

Health Promotion Plan
Provide education on how to avoid secondhand smoke.
Smoking cessation
Infant health routine visits
Educating adult smokers the risks of smoking around their child
Secondhand smoke education informs smokers and non-smokers of the dangers of
secondhand smoke. These efforts encourage smokers to smoke less in their homes and
both smokers and non-smokers to implement home smoking bans, and can incorporate
cessation interventions. Education can be delivered through counseling, health care
programs, home visiting, informational materials, or media messages.Raising the price of
tobacco products can help prevent people from starting to use tobacco.

Cigarette Smoking Related Accidents and Injuries
Burns caused by cigarettes
House fires
Child abuse
Death
Cigarettes are the leading cause of death from fire and the second leading cause of fire-
related injury. Studies estimate that compared with nonsmokers, smokers appear 1.5
times more likely to have a motor vehicle crash, 1.4-2.5 times more likely to be injured at
work, and 2.0 times more likely to suffer other unintentional injuries. Children and infants
physical abuse is linked to heavy cigarette use among caregivers and parents who
smoke.

Recommendation on Safety Promotion
Do not allow smoking near or in your home.
Do not allow smoking in your car
Avoid public smoking places
Shower and change clothing to eliminate SHS chemicals
Do not allow caretakers to smoke.
Children respect and learn from elders’ actions and words. As caregivers, we teach our
children by the choices we make. Ask people not to smoke around your children.
Additionally, support family and friends who also want to stop smoking. Decide to have a
smoke-free home and car. Moreover, ask friends to respect your decision. Get rid of all
ashtrays in your home (Caldwell, 2018) . Furthermore, teach your children to stay away
from secondhand smoke. In addition, encourage your teens not to smoke.

Electronic cigarette use.
Reducing the rate of smoking before cessation.
Smokers should be provided with counseling when attempting to quit. Pharmacologic
smoking cessation aids are recommended for all smokers who are trying to quit, unless
contraindicated. Evidence-based guidelines recommend nicotine replacement therapy,
bupropion SR, and varenicline as effective alternatives for smoking cessation therapy,
especially when combined with behavioral interventions. Combination pharmacotherapy
is indicated for highly nicotine-dependent smokers, patients who have failed with
monotherapy, and patients with breakthrough cravings. An additional form of nicotine
replacement therapy or an addition of a non-nicotine replacement therapy oral
medication (bupropion or varenicline) may be helpful.

National resource
American Lung Association: 800-315-8700
It was started 115 years ago.
It promotes lung health
It prevents lung illnesses.
The American Lung Association is the leading organization working to save lives by
improving lung health and preventing lung disease through education, advocacy and
research. We it was founded over 115 years ago by a group of volunteers dedicated to
ending the lung health threat of our time: tuberculosis. With TB largely controlled in the
United States, we have extended that mission to other respiratory diseases.

Web-Based Resource
Smokefree.gov
It offers text message program.
It has free apps that helps to track cravings and smoking patterns.
Quitting smoking can be hard. Having a plan makes things a bit easier. Making a
personalized quit plan can keep you on track and help you through the times that
challenge you the most. You can take control of your health by quitting and staying
smokefree. Over time, you’ll greatly lower your risk of death from lung cancer and other
diseases such as heart disease, stroke, chronic bronchitis, emphysema, and at least 13
other kinds of cancer.
