MethodExtraction and analysis of the literals of the questions on SHS in the health surveys in Spain identified on the website of the Ministry of Health, the National Plan on Drugs and Health Departments of the autonomous communities. ResultsThree nationwide surveys assessed SHS exposure, with variability in questions, responses, and recall periods.
