本研究调查了在校护士长和护士长的吸烟率、吸烟态度，以及护士长的控烟干预活动。共有来自日本新泻市2所学院和1所大学的743名护生和490名大学医院的护工参与了本研究，填写了以吸烟习惯、吸烟态度和促进烟草干预活动为重点的自我匿名问卷。实习护士的吸烟率为6%，且随学习年限的增加而增加；在职护士的吸烟率为16%，且随工作年限的增加而增加。几乎一半的护士吸烟学生在进入高等教育机构之前就开始吸烟，超过一半的工作人员吸烟者也是在高中或大学时期开始吸烟的。尼古丁依赖的定义是每天11支以上，起床后30分钟内吸第一支烟。在进入学院或大学之前开始吸烟的吸烟者中，尼古丁依赖程度很高，而在进入学院或大学之后开始吸烟的吸烟者中则没有。36%的实习护士和25%的在职护士同意“护士不应该吸烟”的说法。只有12%的工作人员护士经常参与反烟草干预，部分原因是缺乏广泛的知识和必要的技能。作为一个高度优先事项，需要作出更大的努力，系统和全面地教育学生和护士，使他们了解日本现有的一系列烟草干预措施。(c) 2005年东北大学医学出版社。
The present study investigated smoking prevalence and attitudes toward smoking in student and staff nurses, and activities to promote tobacco intervention by staff nurses. A total of 743 student nurses in 2 colleges and one university and 490 staff nurses in the university hospital in Niigata, Japan participated in the study and filled in self-administered anonymous questionnaires focused on smoking habits, attitudes toward smoking, and activities to promote tobacco intervention. The smoking prevalence among student nurses was 6% and increased with the year of study, whereas that of among staff nurses was 16% and increased by employment up to 3-5 years. Almost half of the student nurse smokers started the habit before admission to higher education facilities, and more than half of staff smokers also started smoking in their school years, in high school or college. Nicotine dependence, as defined by over 11 cigarettes per day and the first cigarette within 30 min after getting up, was high in smokers who started smoking before admission to college or university, but not in those who took up the habit thereafter. Thirty-six percent of student nurses and 25% of staff nurses agreed with the statement that "nurses should not smoke." Only 12% of staff nurses were involved in anti-tobacco interventions routinely, partly due to lack of broad knowledge and the necessary skills. Greater efforts are needed as a high priority to educate student and staff nurses systematically and comprehensively about the range of tobacco interventions available in Japan.
