摘要
A tobacco cessation programme was recently introduced into medical practice in Tunisia. The medical staff in the pulmonary disease ward at Charles Nicolle Hospital, Tunis, has been the first to implement such a programme for people motivated to quit smoking. This programme has been run for 3 years in the respiratory disease out-patient department. It acts essentially against psychological and pharmacological dependence on tobacco. The results obtained were very encouraging: 298 smokers have participated in this programme. The global success rate at 12 months of tobacco withdrawal was about 25% for people who were followed up, and 17% for the whole sample. Medical help for smoking cessation should be more widely promoted in Tunisia to increase the number of smokers who consult and improve the quality of medical intervention.
