[Tobacco use and pregnancy].
This paper is made with the selection of all pregnant women from Centro health area of Ciego de Avila municipality. Subjects are divided into smokers and non-smokers and a survey is made. It is found that despite the campaign of health education displayed, it is still not enough, because 42.9% of pregnant women are smokers in different degrees. It is seen that pregnancy and delivery complications, the number of abortions and mortality are higher in smokers. Likewise, failures of health education are found both at the doctor's office and in the field as far as smoking is concerned and also in the negative example set by smokers in the health personnel.
