Objective This purpose of this study was two-fold: (1) to examine the prevalence of tobacco use among dental students, and (2) to examine factors associated with use as well as which products were being used by this population. Material and method This was a cross-sectional descriptive study in which the data was collected through an online questionnaire in 2012. Descriptive statistics were used to characterize the sample, chi-square to examine association among variables of interest, and multivariate logistic regression to examine factors associated with tobacco use. Result The prevalence of tobacco use was 24.92%. Waterpipe was the most frequent tobacco product used by participants who endorsed using tobacco products (66.23%) followed by industrialized cigarettes (54.55%). Factors associated with tobacco use included: living alone (p=0.012; OR=2.13; CI=1.17-3.85), socializing with other smokers (p=0.000; OR=3.22; CI=1.75-5.91), and being close to these smokers when they were smoking (p=0.000; OR=6.96; IC=2.37-20.45). Conclusion This study provides relevant information to the development of awareness and capacity building programs tailored to health care professional in higher education with regard to tobacco use.(AU) Descriptors Links http://www.scielo.br/scielo.php?script=sci_arttext&pid=S1807-25772016000100007 Book Title Database LILACS; http://www.globalhealthlibrary.net/ Publisher Data Source Authors BECKERT,Naiara, MOYSÃ‰S, Simone, CRUZ,Regina, GUTOSKI,LaÃsa, SCARINCI,Isabel Original/Translated Title URL Date of Electronic PMCID Editors

The goal of this study was to measure the impact of SHS on the respiratory symptoms and exhaled carbon monoxide. MATERIAL AND METHODS: The study population consisted of 50 young workers in restaurants serving waterpipes, 48 university students who sit frequently in the university cafeteria where cigarette smoking is allowed and 49 university students spending time in places where smoking is not allowed. Subjects completed questionnaires on socio-demographic characteristics, respiratory symptoms and exposure to SHS. Exhaled carbon monoxide levels were measured. ANOVA and Chi-square tests were used when applicable as well as linear and logistic regression analysis. RESULTS: Exposure to cigarette smoke in university (adjusted odds ratio (ORa) = 6.06) and occupational exposure to waterpipe smoke (ORa = 7.08) were predictors of chronic cough. Being married (ORa = 6.40), living near a heavy traffic road (ORa = 9.49) or near a local power generator (ORa = 7.54) appeared responsible for chronic sputum production. Moreover, predictors of chronic allergies were: being male (ORa = 7.81), living near a local power generator (ORa = 5.52) and having a family history of chronic respiratory diseases (ORa = 17.01). Carbon monoxide levels were augmented by the number of weekly hours of occupational exposure to waterpipe smoke (beta = 1.46) and the number of daily hours of exposure to cigarette smoke (beta = 1.14). CONCLUSIONS: In summary, young non-smoker subjects demonstrated more chronic cough and elevated carbon monoxide levels when exposed to SHS while the effect of waterpipe was even more evident.

Pub Date Free Form / Volume 43 Issue 9 Start Page 179 Other Pages 182 Notes Place of Publication ISSN/ISBN 0030-9982 Accession Number Language SubFile DOI Output Language Unknown(0) PMID Abstract We studied the carbon monoxide (CO) fractions in hookah and cigarette smoke, using a carbon monoxide micro smokerlyzer (model EC50, BEDFONT, U.K.). Mean carbon monoxide fractions (% by volume) of hookah smoke, using domestic charcoal were 0.38 +/- 0.07 (large hookah; unfiltered); 1.40 +/- 0.43 (small hookah; unfiltered); 0.34 +/- 0.06 (large hookah; filtered); 1.36 +/- 0.35 (small hookah; filtered) and 0.41 +/- 0.08 (cigarette smoke). The highest fractions were obtained with small size hookah and increase in size of hookah (i.e., volume of air in water base, fire bowl volume, pipe length, etc.) reduced the CO fraction significantly (P < 0.001). The fractions of cigarette lie between large and small hookah. The fractions vary slightly with different varieties of tobacco, e.g., CO fractions with Dera wala tobacco are significantly low (P < 0.05). Use of commercial charcoal gives significant rise in CO fractions (P < 0.001). Comparison of filtered and unfiltered smoke shows no significant difference in values. We conclude that the CO hazard is as high with hookah smoking as with cigarette smoking.

Assessing hookah use in one of the venues of its use (hookah bars) will aid the understanding of the toxins and exposure for the user. In Florida, smoking is prohibited in public places under the Florida Clean Indoor Act but permitted in establishments that have less than 10% gross revenue from food. PURPOSE: To assess the CO level of hookah cafe patrons, using traditional bar patrons as a comparison. METHODS: After IRB approval, a nighttime field study of patrons (aged >18 years) exiting hookah cafes and traditional bars in 2009 was conducted, using sidewalk locations immediately outside these establishments in a campus community. As hookah cafes and bars are typically entered and exited in groups, every other group of people exiting the establishment was approached. For comparison purposes, the sample collected was similar in number, 173 hookah cafe and 198 traditional bar participants. RESULTS: Results from analysis conducted in 2010 indicate that patrons of hookah cafes had significantly higher CO levels (mean=30.8 parts per million [ppm]) compared to patrons of traditional bars (mean=8.9 ppm). Respondents who indicate no cigarette use in the past month but had visited a hookah cafe still demonstrated significantly higher CO values (mean=28.5 ppm) compared to those exiting traditional bars (mean=8.0 ppm). Current cigarette smokers also produced significantly more CO if exiting a hookah cafe (mean=34.7 ppm) compared to a traditional bar (mean=13.3 ppm). CONCLUSIONS: CO levels are higher for patrons of hookah cafes, for both current and non-cigarette smokers. Although users report that they perceive hookah to be less harmful than cigarettes, the greater CO exposure for hookah users that was observed in this study is not consistent with that perception.

CASE DESCRIPTION: Three women presented to the emergency department after having smoked from a water pipe. The first patient had experienced a syncopal episode and still had symptoms of dizziness and a headache afterwards. The second patient only had a headache and the third had no symptoms. The physical examinations and standard vital sign measurements of all three patients were normal. Analyses of the arterial blood gases, however, showed carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning: the patients had HbCO concentrations of 22, 19.5 and 5.7%, respectively. We administered high concentrations of oxygen to each, but the first 2 patients continued to experience symptoms for several weeks. The CO poisoning was probably caused by the incomplete combustion of the charcoal in the water pipe which resulted in CO being released. CONCLUSION: The regular or even one-time use of a water pipe containing tobacco or an aromatised substance can cause CO poisoning. Patients can continue to experience symptoms for weeks after an episode of acute CO poisoning.

This might often be overlooked, because patients will not always identify the smoke exposure as the cause of their presenting complaints and may well withhold this information. CASE REPORT: A series of three patients who were 15 to 28 years of age presented to the emergency department with nonspecific symptoms and were found to have carbon monoxide poisoning from water pipe smoking. WHY SHOULD AN EMERGENCY PHYSICIAN BE AWARE OF THIS?: This case series might improve recognition of this phenomenon. Carbon monoxide poisoning can cause serious problems, yet it could be easily diagnosed and treated. Identifying this condition can expedite treatment and prevent unnecessary diagnostic tests in an attempt to explain its symptoms.

Similar trends can be seen in other European countries. Water-pipe smokers are exposed to the same health-endangering substances as cigarette smokers, and the inhaled amount of carbon monoxide (CO) can be as much as ten times as high. In CO intoxication, carboxyhemoglobin is formed and causes direct injury at the cellular level, leading to hypoxia and nonspecific neuro logical manifestations. There have only been ten reported cases around the world of CO intoxication due to the use of a water pipe, and none of these were fatal. It should be recalled, however, that accidental CO intoxication is common and is associated with high morbidity and mortality. CASE PRESENTATION AND COURSE: We present a series of four young adults, aged 16 to 21, three of whom were hospitalized because of transient unconsciousness. The carboxyhemoglobin (CO-Hb) content of the blood in the symptomatic patients ranged from 20.1% to 29.6%, while the asymptomatic patient had a CO-Hb content of 16.7%. Water-pipe smoking was the cause of CO intoxication in all four cases. The CO-Hb values were successfully brought down by the administration of highly concentrated oxygen and all patients were discharged in asymptomatic condition. CONCLUSION: This case series reveals that CO intoxication due to water-pipe smoking is probably more common than is generally realized. Emergency room staff should be aware of this problem and inquire specifically about water-pipe smoking in patients with nonspecific neurological manifestations.
