Abbiamo valutato la prevalenza di esposizione a fumo passivo in 516 bambini affetti da OSAS e 1030 bambini della popolazione generale residenti in Provincia di Varese. Abbiamo studiato inoltre chi sono i fumatori in famiglia, in quali luoghi si fuma e la frequenza del fumo in gravidanza. La percentuale dei bambini esposti a fumo passivo è risultata maggiore fra gli affetti da OSAS rispetto alla popolazione generale. (p< 0.001). Tra i soggetti con OSAS gli esposti al fumo passivo presentavano OSAS più gravi rispetto ai non esposti (p=0.06). L'esposizione a fumo passivo aumenta significativamente nei soggetti con OSAS rispetto alla popolazione generale, e correla con la gravità dell'OSAS. Sarebbe utile attuare campagne informative sui danni determinati dal fumo
