  1. How to implement a smoking Ban : In 10 easy steps Cathryn V. Truitt PHD Student Walden University Instructor: Dr. Shanna Morrell PUBH 8165- Environmental Health Spring Semester

  2. Objectives: Short Term • As the results of this presentation youwill be able to: • Explain the effects of smoking lungs, heart and vascular system • Explain what happens immediately after a person stops smoking, 1 hour after, 1 day after, etc. • Demonstrate how lung works and smoking acts on lungs • Synthesize what happens to the lungs of a smoker and a healthy lung.

  3. Objectives: Long Term • As a result of their learning you will be able to: • Create literature in the forms of brochures that will be handed out to people in the community. • Create posters that will be placed around the community regarding the smoking ban and effects of cigarette smoking • Write their local, state and federal politicians to voice their concerns about smoking and health issues.

  4. What happens to your body when you first light up? • Smoke hits you eyes, nose and throat: • Mucus starts to be secreted • Your eyes water and they get red • Your throat gets sore • Your tonsils get inflamed • Your tongue gets coated • Your taste buds begin to die Dietz, Delva, Woolley, & Russello (2008) The reach of a youth oriented anti-t0bacco media campaign on adult smokers. Drug and Alcohol Dependence 1-2 (11), 180-184.

  5. As the smokes goes into the throat and lungs what happens • The smokes goes into your throat and it gets sore • As it enters your lungs, the lungs get inflamed. • The air sacs get filled up with fluid or expand with air. • The mucous can build up and coughing begins • The air sacs get more involved. Leads to rapid breathing and heart rate. Dietz, Delva, Woolley, & Russello (2008) The reach of a youth oriented anti-t0bacco media campaign on adult smokers. Drug and Alcohol Dependence 1-2 (11), 180-184.

  6. If the smoking is prolonged the person can develop • Fibrosis in the lungs (the protein becomes stiff and the lungs can not move properly) • The air sacs can become permanently deflated • This can lead to chronic lung diseases such as COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease) or emphysema. • You may have seen people with this disease. They may be walking around with oxygen tanks and nasal prongs in their nose. Dietz, Delva, Woolley, & Russello (2008) The reach of a youth oriented anti-t0bacco media campaign on adult smokers. Drug and Alcohol Dependence 1-2 (11), 180-184.

  7. What happens when you quit smoking? • 20 minutes, normal BP • 8 hours carbon monoxide gone, oxygen returns to normal. • 48 hours, chance of heart attack is decreased • 48 hours , nicotine is gone from body • 48 hours , smell and taste will return to normal • 72 hours, lungs can expand to normal. • 2 weeks circulation can improve. Williams, G., et. al. (2006). Testing self determination theory intervention for motivating tobacco cessation: Supporting autonomy and cooperation in a clinical trial. Health Psychology 25 (1), 91-101.

  8. What happens if you stop smoking? • In three months wheezing will stop and lung capacity will increase to 2/3 its normal capacity • In nine months the lungs should reach their full capacity or to the best of their full capacity outside of their damage. • 1 year your chance of heart attack has decreased by ½ • 5 years your chance of stroke is that of a non smoker • 10 years your chance of developing lung cancer is that of a non smoker Williams, G., et. al. (2006). Testing self determination theory intervention for motivating tobacco cessation: Supporting autonomy and cooperation in a clinical trial. Health Psychology 25 (1), 91-101.

  9. How do I know about smoking effects? • Lets do an activity: • The lung capacity activity and smoking activity. • If you are a smoker you will not have the lung capacity to inhale and exhale to fill up this artificial lung. • The lung can be set to mimic a smoker. • The next two slides coming up will show two pictures of lungs. • The first picture comes from the lung of a smoker • The next picture comes from the lung a health person.

  10. This is the lung of a smoker with lung cancer • This is smokers lung Smeltzer, S.C., Bare, B. C., Hinkle, J. L., & Cheever, K. H. (2008). Brunner and suddarth’s textbook of medical surgical nursing, 11th edition. Philadelphia, PA: Lippincott Williams and Wilkins.
