PEREZ CASTILLO, Raydel et al. Tobacco and health: knowledge in pregnant women in the maternal home "Clodomira Acosta", Las Tunas. JONNPR [online]. 2020, vol.5, n.12, pp.1470-1480.  Epub 18-Dez-2023. ISSN 2529-850X.  https://dx.doi.org/10.19230/jonnpr.3422.

Objective.

To determine the level of knowledge about the effects of tobacco use on women's health.

Methods.

A prospective longitudinal descriptive study was conducted. Were included pregnant women admitted to the "Clodomira Acosta" Maternal Home in Las Tunas, from May to August 2019. The study variables were: age, gestational age, educational level, knowledge about the effects of conventional and electronic tobacco, tobacco status, severity of smoking and level of knowledge.

Results.

We included 96 pregnant women between 18 and 44 years old (25,8 ± 6.2) and gestational time of 32.1±6.5 weeks. The predominant educational level was pre-university (n=68; 70.8%). Have had active or passive contact him tobacco 55.2% of pacients. Those who reported to be smokers, ex-smokers or in abstinence referred to receive tobacco cessation counseling. Shortcomings include: the impact of smoking on reproductive health and the harmfulness of electronic smoking (n=93; 96.9%). The level of knowledge about the effects of tobacco use on women's health was evaluated as good (79±8pts).

Conclusion.

Pregnant women have good knowledge about tobacco-dependent diseases; however, there is a lack of knowledge about the impact on reproductive health and the use of vapeo as an erroneous technique to replace smoking.
