Abstract (2. Language): 
In this descriptive and cross-sectional study, the frequency of and factors affecting smoking among 919 nurses were examined. Nurses working at the Medicine Faculty of Meram Maternity Hospital, Social Security Hospital, Province Health Administration of Konya and State Hospital were included in this study. Data were obtained via a standardized questionnaire form. Of all the nurses, (13.3% male and 86.7% female) 52.4% were ever-smokers, 38.5% never-smokers, 9.1% ex-smokers and the quit ratio was 14.7%. The lowest age of starting smoking was 7, the highest age was 38 and the median value was 20. Of the participants, 51% started to smoke at the age of 26 and over. Social factors (environment, friends, etc.) were the first reasons to start smoking (43.8%). Approximately, 70.2% of ever-smokers had tried to stop smoking. In the families of non-smokers, the ratio of never-smoking was significantly high (p<0.001). The ratio of smoking among the close friends who were eversmokers was significantly higher than the ratio among the non-smokers (p<0.001). Our study indicates that nearly half of the nurses are smokers. Therefore, to prevent and reduce smoking among nurses, further researches and more effective smoking cessation programs should be carried out

Tanýmlayýcý ve kesitsel tipteki bu çalýþmada 919 hemþirede sigara içme sýklýðý ve sigara içmeyi etkileyen faktörler araþtýrýldý. Bu çalýþmaya Meram Týp Fakültesi Doðumevi, Sosyal Sigortalar Kurumu Hastanesi, Konya Ýl Saðlýk Müdürlüðü ve Devlet Hastanesinde çalýþan hemþireler katýldýlar. Veriler standart bir anket ile elde edildi. Tüm hemþirelerin (%86.7'si kadýn, %13.3'ü erkek) %52.4'ü halen sigara içiyor, %9.1'i sigara içmeyi býrakmýþ, %38.5'i hiç içmemiþ ve sigara býrakma oraný ("quit ratio") %14.7 idi. Sigaraya baþlamada en küçük yaþ 7, en büyük yaþ 38, ortanca deðer 20 idi. Katýlanlarýn, %51'i sigara içmeye 26 yaþ ve üzerinde baþlamýþlardý. Sigaraya baþlamada birinci sebep %43.8 ile sosyal faktörler (çevre, arkadaþlar, v.d.) idi. Halen içenlerin yaklaþýk %70.2'si sigara býrakmayý denemiþlerdi. Sigara içmeyenlerin ailelerinde sigara içmeme oraný önemli ölçüde yüksek idi (p<0.001). Sigara içenlerin yakýn arkadaþ grubunda sigara içme oraný, sigara içmeyenlere oranla istatistiksel olarak oldukça yüksek idi (p<0.001). Bu çalýþmada, yaklaþýk olarak hemþirelerin yarýsýnýn sigara içtiði görülmektedir. Bu yüzden, hemþireler arasýnda sigara içmeyi önlemek ve azaltmak için daha ileri araþtýrmalar ve daha etkili sigara býrakma programlarý yapýlmalýdýr.
