[Passive Smoking and Pregnancy - CNGOF-SFT Expert Report and Guidelines for Smoking Management during Pregnancy].

The objective of this chapter is to evaluate the risks of second-hand-smoke during pregnancy and to assess the benefits of antenatal care. Bibliographical research in French and English using the Medline and Cochrane databases and the recommendations of international societies. Exposure to second-hand smoke appears to be higher at home and in the car, with potential consequences for pregnancy, especially prematurity (NP3). Complete avoidance of smoking at home significantly reduces exposure to passive smoking compared to incomplete avoidance (NP4). The more numerous the sources, the higher the intoxication is (NP4). The major risk factor associated with passive smoking is the presence of a spouse who smokes. Other associated factors are the presence of a smoker at home or in the car, young population (<25 years), low level of education, old smoking (NP4). Passive smoking is associated with an increased risk of fetal death in utero, fetal malformations, prematurity and birth weight under 2500g (NP2). No specific management is recommended for all pregnant women. Nevertheless, in a specific population of pregnant women with vulnerabilities, a behavioral approach aimed at teaching them to negotiate with their entourage may be beneficial in order to reduce the effects of passive smoking on pregnancy (NP2). It is recommended to advise women and their family (especially spouses) to create a smoke-free environment, especially at home and in the car (professional consensus). It is recommended to provide a minimum amount of smoking cessation advice to pregnant women's entourage (professional consensus).
