AB  - Objectives: Study evaluates the results of smoking cessation(SC) patients, who were hospital treated and whether have been certain diseases a motive strong enough to SC.Methods: Patients were at first valued with profile of tobacco use,Tobacco dependence test and Motivational interview.Patients were, according to their diagnoses,divided into 6 groups (Tb,Ca,Asthma,COPD,Ac. resp. dis., Cardiovascular dis.).Methods we used for quit smoke were 1.methods of short intervention and 2.program of change behavior for smoking cessation including pharmacological therapy too.One year after, we evaluated the results.Results: The treatment was done on the 451 patient-smoker: Tb-62, Ca-90, Asthma-22, COPD-102, Ac. resp. dis.-146, Cardiovascular dis.-16. Short intervention accepted 382 (85%) of them, 26.4% stopped smoking, 42.2% reduced smoking. Patients 69 were involved with SC method 2: 42.2% stopped smoking and 37.5% reduced smoking. Evaluated by diagnoses, after a year of monitoring patients, 23 with Tb (25,0%), 16 with Ca (17,39%), 2 with Asthma (2,17%), 30 COPD (32,6%) and 21 patient with Ac. pulm. dis. (22,82%) quitted smoking. Patients 4 were on pharmacological therapy (NRT). Five patients died (4,7) during the research (Ca).Conclusions: It was expected that a bigger number of patients with Cancer would quit smoking, but from our results it is seen that smoking was associated with the illness mostly by the patients suffering from Tb (37%) and significantly less by the patients suffering from Asthma, COPD and Ac. resp. dis.Patients with Cardiovascular dis. weren't interested in quit smoking, probably because they spent less days in hospital.
