Introduction:
Exposure to environmental tobacco smoke has several adverse effects on
child health. We aimed to determine awareness, attitudes and behaviors of
parents about the effects of tobacco smoke exposure among children. Method: A
total of 286 parents, whose children admitted to the Social Pediatrics
Department, received a survey including questions about adverse effects of
smoking on children, attitudes and behaviors of parents for protecting their
child from smoking. Results: Tobacco using ratio were 16.3% and 46.3% in
mothers and in fathers; respectively. Although 96.9% of the parents stated that
they prefer to sit in the non-smoking section of public open spaces such as
cafes / restaurants, 51% stated that they allow their guests to smoke at home.
Smoking incidence was significantly higher in families whose monthly income was
below the poverty line (p<0.001). In the non-smoking group; providing
education (p=0.025) and avoid smoking people around (p<0.001) were found
significantly higher to prevent the child from smoking cigarettes in the
future. Conclusion: Raising the awareness of parents and to develop
attitudes and behaviors against tobacco use carry quiet importance to protect
children from smoking.

Sigaranın Çocuğa Etkileri Konusunda Ailelerin Farkındalıkları, Tutum ve Davranışları

Öz

Sigara dumanına pasif maruziyetin çocuk sağlığı üzerine birçok olumsuz etkisi bulunmaktadır. Amacımız ebeveynlerin sigaranın çocuklara etkileri konusunda bilgi ve farkındalıklarını değerlendirmek, çocuklarını sigaradan korumak adına aldıkları önlemleri ve gelecek stratejilerini belirlemektir. Yöntem: Sosyal Pediatri Polikliniğine çocuklarını sağlıklı çocuk izlemine getiren 286 ebeveyn için sigaranın çocuğa etkileri ve ailelerin önlem amaçlı tutumları konusunda sorular içeren anket formu yüz yüze doldurulmuştur. Bulgular: Araştırmamızda annelerin %16,3’ü, babaların %46,3’ü halen sigara kullandıklarını belirtmiştir. Ebeveynlerin %96,9’u kafe/restoran gibi kamuya açık alanlarda sigara kullanılmayan bölümde oturmayı tercih ettiklerini belirtmelerine rağmen %51’i eve gelen misafirlerin evde
sigara içmelerine izin verdiklerini ifade etmiştir. Yoksulluk sınırının altında aylık geliri olan ailelerde sigara içme sıklığı anlamlı olarak yüksek bulunmuştur (p<0,001). Çocuğunun ileride sigaraya başlamasını önlemede, sigara içmeyen grupta eğitim vererek (p=0,025) ve etrafında sigara içilmesine engel olarak sigara içilmesini önleme stratejileri sigara içen gruba göre daha etkili bulunmuştur (p<0,001). Sonuç: Ebeveynlerin çevresel sigara dumanı maruziyeti konusunda bilgileri, günlük yaşantılarına yön vermede öncelikleri ve önlem yöntemleri konusunda yaklaşımları çocukları korumakta etkili faktörlerdir. Çocukları sigara dumanından korumak için anne-babaların bilinçlendirilmesi ve buna yönelik tutum ve davranışlar geliştirmeleri önemlidir.
