“…20,21 Studies carried out in Turkey indicate that the age began smoking varies between 13 and 20. 3,17,[22][23][24][25] In our study, the age began smoking was significantly younger in the relapsed group compared with the non-relapsed group.…”

BACKGROUND:The most important and difficult task when it comes to reducing tobacco-related morbidity and mortality is to convince smokers to quit and to maintain their abstinence. This study aimed to determine the smoking relapse rate and factors related to relapse in subjects who participated in a smoking cessation program and completed a 1-y follow-up in our center. METHODS: The study included 550 subjects who applied to a smoking cessation clinic from June 1, 2011 to December 31, 2011 and completed the 1-y follow-up. RESULTS: After 1 y, 282 (51.4%) subjects had relapsed, 132 (24%) had quit smoking, and 135 (24.6%) could not be contacted. The mean age ؎ SD was 41.5 ؎ 10.8 y, and 52.5% were male. There was no difference between non-relapsed and relapsed subjects with regard to age, sex, average smoking duration and daily number of cigarettes, reason to quit, education level, presence of symptoms and concomitant diseases, Fagerström nicotine dependence score, Beck depression score, and frequency of pharmacotherapy administration. In the relapsed group, the age began smoking was younger (P ‫؍‬ .05), and the longest prior duration of abstinence was shorter (P ‫؍‬ .04). The average number of support contacts was found to be significantly higher in the non-relapsed subjects (P < .001). Logistic regression analysis revealed alcohol intake to be a factor influencing relapse (odds ratio: 2.11, 95% CI: 1.13-3.93, P ‫؍‬ .02), as was the number of support contacts (odds ratio: 2.06, 95% CI: 1.59 -2.65, P < .001). The presence of drug adverse effects was close to being significant (odds ratio: 1.96, 95% CI: 0.93-4.10, P ‫؍‬ .07). CONCLUSION: The relapse rate in a 1-y period was 51.4%. Similar to previous studies, alcohol intake presented a relapse risk. In subjects receiving drug treatment, planning support meetings more frequently and paying attention to adverse effects may increase the success of smoking cessation.

Smoking Prevention and Cessation

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Smoking is the most important cause of disability, death and preventable illness in Turkey and all over the world. Cigarette smoking affects a large part of society with increasing frequency and is propagated among young people. Therefore, the tobacco industry targets youth, adolescents and women. Decreasing the age of smoking cigarettes causes exposure of the cigarettes effects to the smokers for a longer period. Adolescents start smoking due primarily to a desire to imitate adults, peer pressure, affectation and easy access to cigarettes. A great impact on the behaviour of human beings is the adolescent peer group. This effect is valid for both risky and safe behaviours. Peer education aims to use positive peer influence on their behaviour since peers are positive models for each other. In recent years, the increase in tobacco consumption has led to increased need for per education. The purpose of this article is to explain how to use peer education in changing the behaviour of adolescent smoking.

ÖZETMüdahale Çarkı fikri ilk olarak, 1998'de Keller, Strohschein, Lia-Hoaberg ve Schaffer tarafından ortaya atılmıştır. Müdahale Çarkı, toplum/nüfus tabanlı, uygulamaya dayalı ve kanıt temelli bir uygulama modelidir. Müdahale Çarkı tüm toplumlar üzerine odaklanır, toplum değerlendirmesi temellidir, sağlık belirleyicilerini dikkate alır, önlemeyi vurgular ve çoklu seviyelerde müdahale eder. Model uygulamanın üç seviyesini kapsar ve 17 halk sağlığı müdahalesini belirler. Müdahaleler sağlık durumlarının geliştirilmesi veya korunması için toplumlar, sistemler, bireyler ve aileler adına atılan adımlardır. Bireysel/aile odağı; bireylerin ve hane halkının bilgi, tutum, inanç, uygulamalar ve davranışlarını; Topluluk odağı; normlar, tutumlar, farkındalık, uygulamalar ve davranışlarını; Sistemler odağı ise; politikaları, yasaları ve güç yapılarını değiştirir. 17 halk sağlığı müdahalesi ise; Sürveyans; Hastalık ve Diğer Sağlık Olaylarının İncelenmesi; Politikanın Uygulanmasıdır. Müdahale Çarkı nüfusun sağlığını iyileştirme ve halk sağlığı hemşireliği uygulamalarına yön vermek için basit ve kapsamlı bir modeldir. Türkiye'de 2004 yılından bu yana yürütülen sağlık sistemindeki yapısal dönüşüm nedeniyle, verilerin değerlendirilmesi ve yeni-ölçülebilir, ortak stratejilerin geliştirilebilmesi için müdahale çarkının halk sağlığı eğitimi ve uygulama alanlarında kullanılması yararlı olacaktır. ABSTRACTThe idea of Intervention Wheel is originally proposed by Keller, Strohschein, Lia-Hoaberg, and Schaffer in 1998. The Intervention Wheel is a population-based practice model which is evidence-supported. It focuses on entire populations, is grounded in community assessment, considers determinants of health, emphasizes prevention, and intervenes at multiple levels. The model includes three levels of practice and identifies 17 public health interventions. Interventions are the steps taken on behalf of the communities, systems, individuals or families for improvement or protection of health conditions. Individual/family focus modified the knowledge, attitudes, beliefs, practices and behaviors of the individuals and family
