青少年吸电子烟对加拿大儿童和青少年的健康和安全构成重大风险。本声明提供了有关电子烟、电子烟产品和相关设备的背景信息，讨论了已知与其使用相关的短期和长期危害，并为吸电子烟或有开始吸电子烟风险的青少年提供预防和戒烟策略。青少年吸电子烟与烟草和其他药物使用、心理健康问题、肺部和心血管疾病以及意外伤害的风险增加有关。由于缺乏有效性和危害证据，电子烟不应该被用作青少年的戒烟工具。许多用于戒烟的预防和治疗策略，包括行为和药物选择，都可以用来帮助青少年戒烟。其中包括针对社区利益相关者和政策制定者的建议。
Youth vaping presents significant risks for the health and safety of Canadian children and adolescents. This statement provides background information about vaping, vaping products, and related devices, discusses the short- and long-term harms known to be associated with their use, and offers prevention and cessation strategies for youth who vape or are at risk for starting. Youth vaping is associated with increased risk for tobacco and other substance use, mental health problems, pulmonary and cardiovascular disease, and unintentional injuries. Vaping should not be used as a smoking cessation tool for youth, due to lack of effectiveness and evidence of harm. Many preventive and treatment strategies used for tobacco cessation, including behavioural and pharmacological options, can be adapted to help youth quit vaping. Recommendations for community stakeholders and policy makers are included.
