Sigara Bağımlılığında Aile Terapisi: 7 Olgu Sunumu

Abstract

Her yıl 8 milyondan fazla insanın ölümüne yol açan tütün kullanımı, düşük ve orta gelirli ülkeler başta olmak üzere tüm dünyada önemli bir sağlık sorunudur. Tütün bağımlılığı ile mücadelede bağımlılığın derecesi, aile, sosyal çevre, hastanın sahip olduğu ek hastalıklar da dahil olmak üzere çok yönlü bir şekilde değerlendirilerek kişiye özel tedavi yöntemi belirlenmelidir. Tütün bağımlılığında davranış eğitimi-motivasyonel destek (DE) tedavisi tek başına ya da farmakolojik tedavi ile birlikte kullanılabilir. Bu olgu serimiz aynı ailenin 7 üyesinin aynı anda sigara bırakma kararı vererek polikliniğimize müracaat etmesiyle verilen medikal ve motivasyonel destekle, aile içindeki sosyal desteğin önemini vurgulamak istedik.
