Our objectives were to determine whether there were differences in smoking and TSE patterns based on parental race and child age and whether these patterns differed based on child age within black and white parental smokers. Secondary objectives were to assess the relationship between parental perceptions about the effects of smoking and the benefits of quitting on their child based on child age, race, and reported TSE patterns and to examine biochemically verified TSE levels by child age, race, and parent-reported TSE patterns %K tobacco smoke %K children %K emergency department %K parents %U https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6585244/
