Chinese Abstract

Introduction: Tobacco use continues to be Taiwan's leading preventable cause of death and disease, as it caused 18,800 tobacco-related death annually, which was on aver age one death every half an hour. In Taiwan, cigarette smoking rate of adults approximates 19.1%, and male smokers are predominant (33.5%).Hence the reduction of adult's smoking rate is mandatory for promotion of public health.Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted from Jan. 2012 to Dec. 2012 in a southern hospital of Taiwan. A total of 150 smokers were enroll- ed. All participants should complete their demographic informations and scores of Fagerstrom Test for Nicotine dependence (FTND). Stastitical analyses were performed using the SAS version 9.2 software. Categorical variables were analysed using the Chi- Square test or t-test.Results: There were 132 male smokers and 18 female smokers ,the male smokers were predominant and statistically significant(88.0% vs 12.0%, p<0.05). Most participants belonged to moderate- high nicotine dependence, while the female smokers had higher FTND scores than the male smokers (7.6±2.2 vs 6.6±1.9, p<0.05). As for the duration of cigarette smoking, the male smokers had longer duration than the female smokers(24.0±10.7 vs 17.4±0.9, p<0.05). As for daily quantity of smoking, there were 108 participants (72.0%) smoking more than 10 cigarettes per day. After telephone call follow-up, the overall smoking cessation rate was 30.7%(46/150), including 40 male smokers and 6 female smokers.Conclusion: Tobacco use is a curable and preventable addiction disease.Current smokers with longer duration, higher FTND scores, and more daily cigarettes smoking have more difficulty in quitting smoking due to severe nicotine withdrwal syndrome.
