Abstract

Introduction: smoking is defined as the physical and psychological dependence of tobacco, passive smoke consists of inhaling the smoke and tobacco derivatives by non-smokers. Children are especially vulnerable to exposure to tobacco smoke. Objective: identify the association between passive smoking at home and respiratory tract morbidity in pre-school children from the age of 6 to 10 years old, utilizing data gathering in Primary Healthcare units from Araguaína – TO. Methods: cross-sectional descriptive research with quantitative character conducted within three Basic Healthcare Units. A sample comprised of 72 interviewed subjects was determined, selected in random fashion at the healthcare units. Results: The Odds Ratio test obtained the result of OR 3.06, with 95%CI 1.16–8.11 and p<0.05, thus evidencing the existence of a correlation between the development of respiratory diseases and the secondhand smoke in children aged 6 to 10 years. The prevalence of passive smoking at home was 44,4%, exposing, this way, the children to cigarette smoke, leading to the manifestation of symptoms such as dry cough, wheezing, fast breathing, pain, and auricular secretions. Conclusions: the association between passive smoking at home and respiratory tract morbidity in children from the age of 6 to 10 years old was proved. No connection between passive smoking and the increase of respiratory tract-related hospitalizations was obtained.
