The purpose of this study has been to evaluate the prevalence of smoking habit, knowledge on the adverse health effects and attitudes towards it among nurses students in their three years of study (University School of Girona). A self-administrated questionnaire was used. A total of 135 questionnaires were answered (88%) from an estimated available population of 154 students (94% females with 21 years old of mean age). The prevalence of current smoking was 34.3%; ex smokers 23.3% and non smokers 42.5%. The mean of tobacco consumption was 367.6 cigarettes/month. 92% no smokers, 91% ex smokers and 76% smokers thought that smoking has adverse health effects (p less than 0.001). They consider the health protection like the first reason to give up smoking. 38% will advise their healthy smokers patients about the risk of their habit. We conclude: 1.-Low prevalence of smoking habit; 2.-Nurses should know methods aimed at lowering smoking rates, assuming that they have determined influence on the population behavior.
本研究旨在评估吉罗纳大学医学院护理专业学生在三年学习期间的吸烟习惯患病率、对吸烟有害健康的认知以及对吸烟的态度。采用自行填写的问卷进行调查。在估计的154名学生群体中，共回收135份问卷（88%），其中94%为女性，平均年龄21岁。当前吸烟者的患病率为34.3%；既往吸烟者为23.3%，不吸烟者为42.5%。烟草消费平均为每月367.6支香烟。92%的不吸烟者、91%的既往吸烟者和76%的吸烟者认为吸烟对健康有不良影响（p<0.001）。他们认为健康保护是戒烟的首要原因。38%的人会向吸烟的健康患者告知其吸烟习惯的风险。我们得出以下结论：1.吸烟习惯患病率较低；2.护士应了解旨在降低吸烟率的方法，因为他们对人群行为有决定性影响。
