I decided to blog about this because my MIL has invited her brother to stay over at our house for the weekend. Bad idea... Because her brother is a smoker..
I've restricted all of Ryan's toys and access to our bedroom only. I'm patiently waiting for monday when he decides to go back to his home...

什么是二手烟?
二手烟是一个混合的烟雾给小康由燃烧完的香烟,烟斗,或雪茄,烟雾是由吸烟者呼出。二手烟也称为环境烟草烟雾(对外电讯服务供应商)和暴露于二手烟环境有时也被称为非自愿或吸二手烟。二手烟中包含更多的4000物质,其中有几个是众所周知的致癌物质在人或动物。
- 美国环保局的结论是,暴露于二手烟可以导致肺癌,在成年人谁不吸烟。环保局估计,暴露于二手烟环境的原因大约有3000肺癌死亡人数每年在不吸烟者。
- 暴露于二手烟环境亦已表明,在多项研究,以增加患心脏病的危险。
严重的健康风险,儿童
儿童特别容易受到影响的二手烟,因为他们仍处于发展阶段身体,有较高的呼吸率高于成人,并没有多大的控制权,他们的室内环境。儿童暴露于高剂量的二手烟,如那些母亲吸烟,运行的最大的相对危险性在经历了损害健康的影响。

- 暴露于二手烟可能导致儿童哮喘的谁以前没有展出的症状。
- 暴露于二手烟环境的风险增大,为婴儿猝死症 。
- 婴儿和儿童的年龄小于6谁是经常暴露在二手烟环境正处于上升的风险较低的呼吸道感染,如肺炎和支气管炎 。
- 儿童谁定期呼吸二手烟正处于风险增加, 中耳感染 。
健康风险儿童哮喘
- 哮喘是最常见的慢性疾病影响的童年在一学校13岁的儿童平均水平。

Health Effects of Exposure to Secondhand Smoke
Did You Know?
11% of children aged 6 years and under are exposed to ETS in their homes on a regular basis (4 or more days per week).
The National Survey on Environmental Management of Asthma and Children's Exposure to Environmental Tobacco Smoke.
Contents
What is Secondhand Smoke?
Secondhand smoke is a mixture of the smoke given off by the burning end of a cigarette, pipe, or cigar, and the smoke exhaled by smokers. Secondhand smoke is also called environmental tobacco smoke (ETS) and exposure to secondhand smoke is sometimes called involuntary or passive smoking. Secondhand smoke contains more that 4,000 substances, several of which are known to cause cancer in humans or animals.
- EPA has concluded that exposure to secondhand smoke can cause lung cancer in adults who do not smoke. EPA estimates that exposure to secondhand smoke causes approximately 3,000 lung cancer deaths per year in nonsmokers.
- Exposure to secondhand smoke has also been shown in a number of studies to increase the risk of heart disease.
Serious Health Risks to Children
Children are particularly vulnerable to the effects of secondhand smoke because they are still developing physically, have higher breathing rates than adults, and have little control over their indoor environments. Children exposed to high doses of secondhand smoke, such as those whose mothers smoke, run the greatest relative risk of experiencing damaging health effects.

- Exposure to secondhand smoke can cause asthma in children who have not previously exhibited symptoms.
- Exposure to secondhand smoke increases the risk for Sudden Infant Death Syndrome.
- Infants and children younger than 6 who are regularly exposed to secondhand smoke are at increased risk of lower respiratory track infections, such as pneumonia and bronchitis.
- Children who regularly breathe secondhand smoke are at increased risk for middle ear infections.
Health Risks to Children with Asthma
- Asthma is the most common chronic childhood disease affecting 1 in 13 school aged children on average.
- Exposure to secondhand smoke can cause new cases of asthma in children who have not previously shown symptoms.
- Exposure to secondhand smoke can trigger asthma attacks and make asthma symptoms more severe.
The Science Behind the Risks
- Surgeon General Warning: Secondhand Smoke Puts Children At Risk
On June 27th, 2006, the Surgeon General released a major new report on involuntary exposure to secondhand smoke, concluding that secondhand smoke causes disease and death in children and nonsmoking adults. The report finds a causal relationship between secondhand smoke exposure and Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS), and declares that the home is becoming the predominant location for exposure of children and adults to secondhand smoke.
- The National Survey on Environmental Management of Asthma and Children’s Exposure to Environmental Tobacco Smoke (NSEMA/CEE) (U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, 2004)

Key findings:
- 11% of children aged 6 years and under are exposed to ETS in their homes on a regular basis (4 or more days per week) compared to 20% in the 1998 National Health Interview Survey (NHIS).
- Parents are responsible for 90% of children’s exposure to ETS.
- Exposure to ETS is higher and asthma prevalence is more likely in households with low income and low education levels.
- Children with asthma have as much exposure to ETS as children without asthma.

- Respiratory Health Effects of Passive Smoking (Also Known as Exposure to Secondhand Smoke or Environmental Tobacco Smoke - ETS) (U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, 1992)
Key findings:
In adults:
- ETS is a human lung carcinogen, responsible for approximately 3,000 lung cancer deaths annually in U.S. nonsmokers. ETS has been classified as a Group A carcinogen under EPA's carcinogen assessment guidelines. This classification is reserved for those compounds or mixtures which have been shown to cause cancer in humans, based on studies in human populations.
In children:
- ETS exposure increases the risk of lower respiratory tract infections such as bronchitis and pneumonia. EPA estimates that between 150,000 and 300,000 of these cases annually in infants and young children up to 18 months of age are attributable to exposure to ETS. Of these, between 7,500 and 15,000 will result in hospitalization.
- ETS exposure increases the prevalence of fluid in the middle ear, a sign of chronic middle ear disease.
- ETS exposure in children irritates the upper respiratory tract and is associated with a small but significant reduction in lung function.
- ETS exposure increases the frequency of episodes and severity of symptoms in asthmatic children. The report estimates that 200,000 to 1,000,000 asthmatic children have their condition worsened by exposure to environmental tobacco smoke.
- ETS exposure is a risk factor for new cases of asthma in children who have not previously displayed symptoms.
