Book Synopsis Secondhand Smoke Exposure and Cardiovascular Effects by : Institute of Medicine
Download or read book Secondhand Smoke Exposure and Cardiovascular Effects written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2010-02-21 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Data suggest that exposure to secondhand smoke can result in heart disease in nonsmoking adults. Recently, progress has been made in reducing involuntary exposure to secondhand smoke through legislation banning smoking in workplaces, restaurants, and other public places. The effect of legislation to ban smoking and its effects on the cardiovascular health of nonsmoking adults, however, remains a question. Secondhand Smoke Exposure and Cardiovascular Effects reviews available scientific literature to assess the relationship between secondhand smoke exposure and acute coronary events. The authors, experts in secondhand smoke exposure and toxicology, clinical cardiology, epidemiology, and statistics, find that there is about a 25 to 30 percent increase in the risk of coronary heart disease from exposure to secondhand smoke. Their findings agree with the 2006 Surgeon General's Report conclusion that there are increased risks of coronary heart disease morbidity and mortality among men and women exposed to secondhand smoke. However, the authors note that the evidence for determining the magnitude of the relationship between chronic secondhand smoke exposure and coronary heart disease is not very strong. Public health professionals will rely upon Secondhand Smoke Exposure and Cardiovascular Effects for its survey of critical epidemiological studies on the effects of smoking bans and evidence of links between secondhand smoke exposure and cardiovascular events, as well as its findings and recommendations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Surgeon General's report returns to the topic of the health effects of involuntary exposure to tobacco smoke. The last comprehensive review of this evidence by the Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) was in the 1986 Surgeon General's report, The Health Consequences of Involuntary Smoking, published 20 years ago this year. This new report updates the evidence of the harmful effects of involuntary exposure to tobacco smoke. This large body of research findings is captured in an accompanying dynamic database that profiles key epidemiologic findings, and allows the evidence on health effects of exposure to tobacco smoke to be synthesized and updated (following the format of the 2004 report, The Health Consequences of Smoking). The database enables users to explore the data and studies supporting the conclusions in the report. The database is available on the Web site of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) at http://www.cdc.gov/tobacco.
Download or read book Clearing the Air written by Gregory Wood and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2016-10-06 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Clearing the Air, Gregory Wood examines smoking’s importance to the social and cultural history of working people in the twentieth-century United States. Now that most workplaces in the United States are smoke-free, it may be difficult to imagine the influence that nicotine addiction once had on the politics of worker resistance, workplace management, occupational health, vice, moral reform, grassroots activism, and the labor movement. The experiences, social relations, demands, and disputes that accompanied smoking in the workplace in turn shaped the histories of antismoking politics and tobacco control. The steady expansion of cigarette smoking among men, women, and children during the first half of the twentieth century brought working people into sustained conflict with managers’ demands for diligent attention to labor processes and work rules. Addiction to nicotine led smokers to resist and challenge policies that coldly stood between them and the cigarettes they craved. Wood argues that workers’ varying abilities to smoke on the job stemmed from the success or failure of sustained opposition to employer policies that restricted or banned smoking. During World War II, workers in defense industries, for example, struck against workplace smoking bans. By the 1970s, opponents of smoking in workplaces began to organize, and changing medical knowledge and dwindling union power contributed further to the downfall of workplace smoking. The demise of the ability to smoke on the job over the past four decades serves as an important indicator of how the power of workers’ influence in labor-management relations has dwindled over the same period.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides an overview of the smoking controversy. The full costs of smoking to employers are discussed and documented. Also considered are the changing attitudes of society as a whole and the specific positions of numerous public and private sector agencies. To provide balance, the authors present the Tobacco Institute's position on smoking and health. And for managers who would like to control or eliminate workplace smoking, successful programs, such as the one implemented by U.S. West Communications, are analyzed in depth. Management Review Smoking is the most important preventable health problem in the world today. In a book that is as provocative as it is balanced and authoritative, the authors explore the background of the current smoking controversy that has led to heightened awareness of the dangers of smoking to both smokers and nonsmokers alike. They emphasize the many difficult and delicate issues that this controversy presents to human resources professionals and provide the information necessary to deal with it effectively. The book begins with an overview of the smoking controversy, paying attention to both contemporary issues and emerging trends. The full costs of smoking to employers are discussed and documented with current research findings. Also considered are the changing attitudes of society as a whole toward smoking and the specific positions of numerous public and private sector agencies. To provide balance, the authors present the Tobacco Institute's position on smoking and health. For managers who would like to control or eliminate workplace smoking entirely, successful programs, such as the one implemented by U.S. West Communications, are analyzed in-depth. The foreword to the book was written by Senator Orrin G. Hatch, a supporter of the Smoking Prevention Health and Education Act of 1983 and the Comprehensive Smokeless Tobacco and Health Education Act. Smoking and the Workplace will help to see a smokefree workplace from the benefits perspective of healthy employees, a productive workforce, a congenial workplace, and an opportunity to involve everyone in a worthwhile outcome.
