We identified the prevalence of smoking and perceived effectiveness of physicians counselling patients about smoking among 340 1st and 4th year medical students in Amman, Jordan. Smoking prevalence was 26% for males and 7% for females, similar to that of their peers in the general population. Smokers and male students were less likely to believe it is wrong for physicians to smoke in front of patients or that smoking policy or physician interaction with patients can influence smoking practices. Students believed that physicians can more effectively prevent smoking than influence patients to stop smoking. Student training on how to effectively counsel patients about smoking prevention and cessation is warranted.
我们在安曼的 340 名 1 年级和 4 年级医学生中发现了吸烟的流行率和医生对患者进行吸烟咨询的效果。男性吸烟率为 26%,女性为 7%,与普通人群中的同龄人相似。吸烟者和男学生不太可能认为医生在患者面前吸烟是错误的,也不太可能认为吸烟政策或医生与患者的互动会影响吸烟行为。学生们认为医生可以更有效地预防吸烟,而不是影响患者戒烟。需要对学生进行关于如何有效劝导患者预防和戒烟的培训。
