Abstract

Introduction: smoking constitutes a worldwide epidemic and a serious burden for the individual, the family and society.

Objective: to determine the behavior of smoking in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.

Methods: an observational, descriptive and cross-sectional study was carried out at “Luis Augusto Turcios Lima” University Polyclinic between January and February 2021. The questionnaire of the CARMEN project was applied as an instrument. Descriptive statistics was used.

Results: the group over 70 years old predominated (65 %) and 57,41 % of the smokers belonged to male sex. Both smokers and the general group were predominantly retired (59,26 % and 65 % respectively), with less than 12th grade of schooling (75,93 % and 76,25 % respectively), having urban origin (51,85 % and 57,5 % respectively). Smokers over 40 years old (51,8 %) and those smoking up to one pack a day (68,5 %) predominated. Hypertension was the most prevalent comorbidity (65 %), and 64,81 % of hypertensive patients were smokers.

Conclusions: among patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease there was a high rate of smokers, mainly in elderly people, with educational levels below twelfth grade and urban origin. There was observed a large number of patients with higher daily consumption of cigarettes, who smoke for more than 40 years.  The presence of neoplasms and cardiovascular diseases was common in smokers with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
