Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı, pandemi döneminde sigara içme alışkanlıklarının özelliklerinde meydana gelen değişiklikleri incelemektir.
Materyal ve Metod:
Bu çalışma Düzce Üniversitesi Tıp Fakültesi Sigara Bırakma Polikliniğine Haziran 2020-Ocak 2021 tarihleri arasında sigara bırakmak için başvuran hastalar ile benzer yaş, cinsiyet ve eğitim özelliklerine sahip kontrol grubu hastalar üzerinde yapılmıştır.
Bulgular: Pandemi döneminde sigarayı bırakan 165 hastadan oluşan çalışma grubu ve 163 hastadan oluşan kontrol grubu çalışmaya dahil edildi. Pandemi döneminde sigarayı bırakan hastaların sigarayı bırakmaya devam edenlere göre anlamlı düzeyde daha az denediği saptandı (p<0.04). Pandemi döneminde sigarayı bırakan hastaların fagerström sigara bağımlılığı ölçeği puanları, sigara içmeye devam eden hastalara göre anlamlı derecede düşük bulundu (p<0,001). Pandemi döneminde sigarayı bırakan ve içmeye devam eden hastalar arasında psikolojik dayanıklılık ölçeği toplam puanı ve tüm alt gruplar açısından anlamlı fark bulundu (p<0,001).
Sonuç: Çalışmamızın sonuçları, sigara içenlerin COVID-19 ile sigara arasındaki olumsuz ilişkiden ve daha fazla bırakma davranışından etkilenmesi nedeniyle pandemi döneminde sigarayı bırakma çabalarının arttığını göstermektedir. Sağlık kuruluşlarına başvuran her hastanın sigara içme davranışı açısından sorgulanmasını ve hastaların psikolojik dayanıklılıklarının değerlendirilmesini öneriyoruz.

Objective The aim of this study is to examine the changes in characteristics of smoking habits during the pandemic period.
Methods This study was conducted on the patients who admitted to Düzce University Medical Faculty Smoking Cessation Outpatient Clinic between June 2020 and January 2021 and a control group with similar age, gender, and educational background characteristics. Results The study group with 165 patients who quit smoking during the pandemic period and the control group with 163 patients were included in the study. It was detected that patients who quit smoking during the pandemic period had attempted to quit smoking significantly less compared to those who continue smoking (p <0.04). The fagerström cigarette addiction scale scores of the patients who quit smoking during the pandemic period were found to be significantly lower than the patients who continued to smoke (p <0.001). A significant difference was found between patients who quit smoking during the pandemic period and patients who continued to smoke, in terms of psychological resilience scale total score and all subgroups (p <0.001).
Conclusion The results of our study show that the rate of efforts to quit smoking increased during the pandemic period, because smokers were affected by the negative relationship between COVID-19 and smoking, and more cessation behavior. We suggest that every patient who admitted to health institutions should be questioned in terms of smoking behavior and the psychological resilience of the patients should be evaluated.
