简介:戒烟计划对于帮助吸烟者戒烟很有用,但吸烟是一种非常难以戒除的成瘾,毫无疑问,需要新颖有效的戒烟干预方法。电子烟是一种电池供电的电子尼古丁输送装置,可以帮助吸烟者在戒烟过程中保持禁欲。我们报告的第一次客观措施戒烟的吸烟者谁尝试了电子烟。案例介绍:三个高加索吸烟者(两名男性年龄分别为47岁和65岁,一名女性年龄为38岁),有记录的复发史,能够戒烟,并在服用电子烟后保持禁欲至少六个月。结论:这是第一次报告使用电子烟后成功戒烟的吸烟者的戒烟客观措施。这是在使用常规尼古丁依赖治疗和戒烟咨询的专业戒烟帮助下,在先前尝试多次失败的吸烟者中实现的。
INTRODUCTION: Smoking cessation programs are useful in helping smokers to quit, but smoking is a very difficult addiction to break and the need for novel and effective approaches to smoking cessation interventions is unquestionable. The E-cigarette is a battery-powered electronic nicotine delivery device that may help smokers to remain abstinent during their quit attempt. We report for the first time objective measures of smoking cessation in smokers who experimented with the E-cigarette.CASE PRESENTATION: Three Caucasian smokers (two men aged 47 and 65 years and one woman aged 38 years) with a documented history of recurring relapses were able to quit and to remain abstinent for at least six months after taking up an E-cigarette.CONCLUSIONS: This is the first time that objective measures of smoking cessation are reported for smokers who quit successfully after using an E-cigarette. This was accomplished in smokers who repeatedly failed in previous attempts with professional smoking cessation assistance using the usual nicotine dependence treatments and smoking cessation counselling.
