Identificarea motivatiei abandonarii fumatului creste rata de succes in sevrajul tabagic, prin individualizarea principiilor de terapie comportamentala

Abstract

Knowing the smoker’s motivation in their decision to quit this habit increases the success rate by combining drug therapy in smoking cessation syndrome with psycho-behavioural techniques. The retrospective descriptive study followed the most important reasons for smoking cessation for 918 smokers who have been admitted at smoking cessation program. Results: the most frequent reason for smoking cessation was related to the health state (53.38%), but also by constantly increasing burden of cigarettes’ prices (61.44%). Also, the motivation “it’s enough” was frequently specified (65.25%), along with the partner’s pressure (39.32%) and the desire not to be addicted (47.82%). Recognition of smoking cessation motivations led to the identification of principles of behavioural therapy for each individual by psychiatrist.
