Objective

To assess the enviromental tobacco smoke (ETS) exposure and the opinion of the Delicias neighbourhood (Zaragoza) in relation to the current legislation legislation on cigarette smoking (2005), and the probability of its widening.

Material and methods

A cross-sectional descriptive study was carried out by personal survey (January鈥揓une 2009) in a representative sample of the neighbourhood (186 men and 202 women). The prevalence of the ETS exposure was calculated in general and in particular environments (place of residence and work, and leisure time), during working days and weekends. Smokers and non-smokers opinion and concerns about the current healthh legislation regarding cigarette smoke was taken into account.

Results

The prevalence of ETS exposure in the general population was 61.9%(56.94鈥?6.59%, P<0.05), reaching 64%on non-working days. The prevalence of ETS exposure in working areas is 35.6%. The large majority (93.5%) considered breathing ETS harmful in general, 91%particualrly for children, and 97%for pregnant women. A total of 88.1%thought it causes lung cancer, and 75.5%coronary diseases. A majority (61.5%) of the people interviewed agreed with the prohibition of smoking in public places (including bars and restaurants).

Conclusions

More than 50%of the population of Delicias is exposed to tobacco smoke. Two out of three of the people surveyed agree with the smoking ban, and 48%would attend indoor leisure places more often with a total smoking ban legislation.
