This case report describes a smoker with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) who had given up on trying to stop smoking because of many failed attempts. The patient, a 55-year-old woman, was, however, interested in reducing smoking and harm. During a long reduction phase, aided by nicotine replacement, the patient gained self-confidence, despite a depressive episode, and was finally able to quit smoking completely. Spirometry revealed several major improvements after reduction and abstinence.
本病例报告描述了一名患有慢性阻塞性肺疾病（COPD）的吸烟者，由于多次戒烟尝试失败，她已放弃努力戒烟。然而，这位55岁的女性患者有兴趣减少吸烟量并降低危害。在漫长的减量阶段，在尼古丁替代疗法的帮助下，尽管出现了一次抑郁发作，患者还是获得了自信，最终能够完全戒烟。肺功能测定显示，在减少吸烟量和戒烟后，患者的肺功能有了几项重大改善。
