Asthma can be prevented if its pathogenesis is well understood. Poorly controlled asthma may cause relapse and poor quality of life. Asthma relapse can be prevented by avoiding trigger factors, one of which is exposure to tobacco smoke. This study aimed to determine the difference in
asthma attack frequency between patients with and without tobacco smoke environment.This study was analytical observational using cross sectional approach. A sample of 60 asthmatic patients were selected by purposive sampling from May to June 2011 at the Pulmonary Disease Center,RSUD Dr. Moewardi, Surakarta. The independent variable was tobacco smoking environment. The dependent variable were frequency of asthma attack by symptoms including wheezing, cough, and tightness. The dependent variables were measured by a questionnaire administered to the patients
with controlled asthma at the moment. Difference in asthma attack frequency was presented in mean and SD. Statistical difference in this frequency was tested by Mann-Whitney on SPSS 16.0 for Windows. On average the patients living in tobacco smoking environment had more asthma attack
frequency per week than those without such an environment, including wheezing (4.70 vs. 3.40; p=0.020), coughing (4.37 vs. 2.90; p= 0.005), andtightness (4.70 vs. 3.40; p=0.020).Patients with tobacco smoke environment have more asthma attacks than those without tobacco smoke environment.
