Abstract

Introduction: It is among the modifiable risk factors for cardiovascular diseases and stroke. In the follow-ups after quitting this habit, it has been shown that there is a decrease in the mortality rate related to the cardiovascular system and an increase in the quality of life of the patients. In this study, it was aimed to investigate the awareness of the drugs used in smoking cessation on patients and healthy individuals.
Methods: Our study was planned as cross-sectional. Patients who applied with any complaints and 198 volunteers from healthcare professionals working in the hospital were included. With the questions in the questionnaire, it was aimed to learn the awareness levels about the drugs used in smoking cessation.
Results: In our study, it was determined that women and other professionals did not have statistically significant information in the question in which the effects of these drugs on pulse and blood pressure levels were evaluated. The statement that individuals in other occupational groups did not know about the effect of bupropion treatment on this system was found to be statistically significantly higher (p<0.01).
Conclusion: Drug treatments have an important place in getting rid of smoking addiction, which is a very important public health problem, and it is known that these treatments are safe even in those with a history of cardiovascular disease. Knowing these treatments and being able to prescribe these drugs safely if their patients are stable will have a very important place in the fight against smoking.

Sigara bırakma tedavisinde kullanılan ilaçların bilgi ve farkındalık düzeylerinin değerlendirilmesi

Year 2022, Volume: 15 Issue: 3, 571 - 582, 01.07.2022

Abstract

Giriş: Sigara Dünya genelinde yaklaşık 1 milyar insan tarafından kullanılan ve her yıl 6 milyondan fazla bireyin ölümüne sebep olan bir alışkanlık olarak karşımıza çıkmaktadır. Kardiyovasküler hastalıklar ve inmede değiştirilebilir risk faktörleri içinde yer almaktadır. Bu alışkanlığın bırakılmasının ardından yapılan takiplerde kardiyovasküler sistem ile ilgili mortalite oranında düşme olduğu ve hastaların yaşam kalitelerinde artış olduğu gösterilmiştir. Bu çalışmada sigara bıraktırmada kullanılan ilaçların hastalar ve sağlıklı bireyler üzerinde farkındalığının araştırılması amaçlanmıştır.
Yöntem: Çalışmamız kesitsel olarak planlanmıştır. Herhangi bir şikayetle başvuran hastalar ve hastanede çalışan sağlık profesyonellerinden 198 gönüllü çalışmaya dahil edildi. Ankette yer alan sorular ile sigara bırakmada kullanılan ilaçlarla ilgili farkındalık düzeylerinin öğrenilmesi amaçlanmıştır.
Bulgular: Çalışmamızda, bu ilaçların nabız ve tansiyon düzeylerine etkilerinin değerlendirildiği soruda, kadın ve diğer profesyonellerin istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bilgilere sahip olmadığı belirlendi. Diğer meslek gruplarındaki bireylerin bupropion tedavisinin bu sistem üzerindeki etkisini bilmedikleri ifadesi istatistiksel olarak anlamlı derecede yüksek bulundu (p<0.01).
Sonuç: Çok önemli bir halk sağlığı sorunu olan sigara bağımlılığından kurtulmada ilaç tedavileri önemli bir yer tutmakta ve bu tedavilerin kardiyovasküler hastalık hikayesi olanlarda dahi güvenli olduğu bilinmektedir. Hekimlerin de bu tedavileri bilmesi hastaları stabil ise güvenle bu ilaçları reçete edebilmesi sigara kullanımı ile mücadelede çok önemli bir yer tutacaktır.
