Summary
Environmental tobacco smoke (ETS0, also known as secondhand smoke, is the combination of smoke given off by the burning end of a tobacco product and the smoke exhaled by the smoker. Children exposed to ETS are at an increased risk of sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS), ear infections, colds, pneumonia, bronchitis and more severe asthma. ETS can also slow the growth of children's lungs and can cause them to cough, wheeze and fell breathless. The purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness of a motivational interviewing-based program in reducing ETS exposure and improving lung health among children who are enrolled in a Head Start program and whose households include a smoker.
