Resumo
Introdução: O ambiente universitário parece facilitar o acesso dos jovens às drogas lícitas e ilícitas. Um fator que contribui para tais hábitos é o alto nível de estresse e exigência aos quais o aluno de medicina é submetido ao longo de toda a sua formação acadêmica. Objetivo: Identificar a prevalência e os fatores associados ao tabagismo entre estudantes de Medicina de uma Universidade Privada do Sul de Santa Catarina. Método: Trata-se de um estudo observacional do tipo descritivo, transversal e analítico. Foi desenvolvido entre 772 acadêmicos de Medicina de uma Universidade do Sul de Santa Catarina, no mês de outubro de 2021, que responderam a um questionário eletrônico que incluiu perguntas de ordem sociodemográficas e de hábitos de vida. Resultados: A pesquisa foi respondida majoritariamente por mulheres (63,27%), predominando a faixa etária dos adultos entre 20 a 59 anos (87,43%), 90,41% não tinham companheiro(a). A prevalência do uso de cigarro comum foi de 10,10%, já a de cigarro eletrônico, vape ou narguilé foi de 24,61%, enquanto o consumo de bebidas alcoólica, maconha e ecstasy configuram as drogas mais prevalentes em associação com o hábito de fumar. Conclusão: Observa-se o ciclo clínico com uma maior frequência de utilização em relação ao uso de cigarro comum, eletrônico, vape e narguilé, sendo o uso de bebidas alcoólicas um de seus preditores independentes. São necessários mais estudos para elucidar mais fatores relacionados à prevalência do uso de cigarro eletrônico entre os estudantes, ressaltando a necessidade de aprimoramento de educação preventiva em universidades médicas.
Introduction: The university environment seems to facilitate young people's access to licit and illicit drugs. A factor that contributes to such habits is the high level of stress and demands to which medical students are subjected throughout their academic training. Objective: Identify the prevalence and factors associated with smoking among medical students at a private university in the south of Santa Catarina. Method: This is an observational, descriptive, cross-sectional and analytical study. It was developed among 772 medical students from a University in the south of Santa Catarina, in October 2021, who answered an electronic questionnaire that included sociodemographic and lifestyle questions. Results: The survey was mostly answered by women (63.27%), predominantly the age group of adults between 20 and 59 years old (87.43%), 90.41% had no partner. The prevalence of common cigarette use was 10.10%, while electronic cigarette, vape or hookah was 24.61%, while the consumption of alcoholic beverages, marijuana and ecstasy configure the most prevalent drugs in association with the habit of smoking. Conclusion: The clinical cycle is observed with a higher frequency of use in relation to the use of common cigarettes, electronics, vape and hookah, with the use of alcoholic beverages being one of its independent predictors. More studies are needed to elucidate more factors related to the prevalence of electronic cigarette use among students, highlighting the need to improve preventive education in medical universities.
