ABSTRACT

Tobacco smoking during perinatal stage has been one of the risk factors less studied in Mexican gyneco-obstetrics. The purpose of this study is to stimulate the knowledge generation regarding the effects of tobacco smoking to the Mexican mothers and babies. This is the result of the review of original relevant publications from other countries on the subject, with the previous support of bibliographic search made from the National Library of Medicine, USA National Institutes of Health (MEDLINE), the Pan American Health Organization/World Health Organization and the USA Centers for Diseases Control. Considering the pharmacology of the addictive drug nicotine, we discuss the effects of tobacco smoking in: a) the gravid women, b) the low birth weight of the newborn babies, c) the Sudden Infants Death Syndrome. The smoking women relative risk and their consequences are also mentioned. Lastly, conclusions and suggestions are offered to develop effective public health programs based in proper identification of the problem and the evidence for the interventions efficacy.
