[目的]探讨被动吸烟对儿童呼吸道健康状况的影响。[方法]对泰安市6个县市区采用简单随机抽样的方式进行调查,对象为3～6岁儿童,通过家长填写问卷的方式,调查内容包括不同年龄儿童的被动吸烟量及吸烟年限;近一年呼吸道健康状况。[结果]被动吸烟儿童感冒、肺炎、支气管炎、哮喘发病率均高于无被动吸烟的儿童。经2χ检验,差异有统计学意义(P﹤0.05或﹤0.01);家庭成员的吸烟量和吸烟年限与儿童呼吸系统病症发生率呈正相关,即随被动吸烟量的增大,家庭成员吸烟年限越长,患呼吸系统疾病的儿童所占比例逐渐升高,经统计学检验,P值均﹤0.05或﹤0.01。[结论]被动吸烟对儿童呼吸健康造成危害,应引起全社会关注。
