Resumen
Hasta un 92% de la población del planeta respira aire contaminado en niveles peligrosos para su salud, y 570 000 niños menores de 5 años, mueren al año a causa de enfermedades respiratorias relacionadas con la contaminación del aire. La finalidad de este trabajo ha sido analizar, a partir de un estudio de revisión bibliográfica, el efecto sobre la salud que produce la contaminación ambiental en el aire en diferentes poblaciones infantiles, así como conocer las estrategias actuales de control de la calidad del aire, como estrategia de salud. Tras el análisis, la conclusión ha sido que una contaminación ambiental por encima de los valores estándares perjudica la salud de las poblaciones mundiales y de manera más acusada afecta a la población infantil constatado a través de la aparición de alteraciones en su sistema respiratorio agravado en el caso de padecer o haber padecido patologías previas relacionadas.

The purpose of this work has been to analyze, from a bibliographic review study, the health effect of environmental pollution in the air in different children's populations, as well as to know current strategies for air quality control, such as health strategy. Following the analysis, the conclusion has been that environmental pollution above the standard values harms the health of world populations and more sharply affects the child population found through the occurrence of alterations in their aggravated respiratory system in the event of suffering or having suffered related prior pathologies.
