To provide up-to-date evidence-based guidelines for the management of smoking cessation during pregnancy.
Systematic review of the international literature. We identified papers published between January 2003 and April 2019 in Cochrane PubMed, and Embase databases with predefined keywords. All reports published in French and English relevant to the areas of focus were included and classified according the level of evidence ranging from 1 (highest) to 4 (lowest). The strength of the recommendations was classified according to the Haute Autorité de santé, France (ranging from A, highest to C, lowest).
\"Counseling\", involving globally all kind of non-pharmacological interventions, has a modest benefit on smoking cessation, birth weight and prematurity. Moderate physical activity did not show a significant effect on smoking cessation. The systematic use of feedback by measuring the expired air carbon monoxide concentration do not influence smoking abstinence but it may be used in establishing a therapeutic alliance. The use of self-help interventions and health education are recommended in helping pregnant smokers quit. The prescription of nicotine replacement therapies (NRT) may be offered to any pregnant woman who has failed stopping smoking without medication This prescription can be initiated by the health care professional taking care of the pregnant woman in early pregnancy. There is no scientific evidence to propose the electronic cigarette for smoking cessation to pregnant smokers; it is recommended to provide the same advice and to use methods that have already been evaluated. The use of waterpipe (shisha/narghile) during pregnancy is associated with decreased fetal growth. It is recommended not to use waterpipe during pregnancy. Breastfeeding is possible in smokers, but less often initiated by them. Although its benefit for the child\'s development is not demonstrated to date, breastfeeding allows the mother to reduce or stop smoking. The risk of postpartum relapse is high (up to 82% at 1 year). The main factors associated with postpartum abstinence are breastfeeding, not having a smoker at home, and having no symptoms of postpartum depression.
Smoking during pregnancy concerns more than hundred thousand women and their children per year in France. It is a major public health burden. Health care professionals should be mobilized for reducing or even eradicating it.

The objective of this chapter is to evaluate the risks of second-hand-smoke during pregnancy and to assess the benefits of antenatal care.
Bibliographical research in French and English using the Medline and Cochrane databases and the recommendations of international societies.
Exposure to second-hand smoke appears to be higher at home and in the car, with potential consequences for pregnancy, especially prematurity (NP3). Complete avoidance of smoking at home significantly reduces exposure to passive smoking compared to incomplete avoidance (NP4). The more numerous the sources, the higher the intoxication is (NP4). The major risk factor associated with passive smoking is the presence of a spouse who smokes. Other associated factors are the presence of a smoker at home or in the car, young population (<25 years), low level of education, old smoking (NP4). Passive smoking is associated with an increased risk of fetal death in utero, fetal malformations, prematurity and birth weight under 2500g (NP2). No specific management is recommended for all pregnant women. Nevertheless, in a specific population of pregnant women with vulnerabilities, a behavioral approach aimed at teaching them to negotiate with their entourage may be beneficial in order to reduce the effects of passive smoking on pregnancy (NP2).
It is recommended to advise women and their family (especially spouses) to create a smoke-free environment, especially at home and in the car (professional consensus). It is recommended to provide a minimum amount of smoking cessation advice to pregnant women\'s entourage (professional consensus).

Scientists are human. As such, they are prone to bias based on political and economic interests. While conflicts of interest are usually associated with private funding, research funded by public sources is also subject to special interests and therefore prone to bias. Such bias may lead to consensus not based on evidence. While appealing to scientific consensus is a legitimate tool in public debate and regulatory decisions, such an appeal is illegitimate in scientific discussion itself. We provide examples of decades-long scientific consensus on erroneous hypotheses. For policy advice purposes, a scientific statement or model should be considered as the subject of proper scientific consensus only if shared by those who would directly benefit from proving it wrong. Otherwise, specialists from adjacent fields of science and technology should be consulted.
