The aim of the present study was to assess the level of perception, knowledge, and awareness towards electronic cigarettes amongst medical students. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted in a sample of students of the School of Medicine of University of Barcelona, Spain, between September and December 2017. Results: A total of 159 medical students returned the survey, being the majority female (82.4%) and first year students (79.9%). The 84.7% of interviewees never smoked, the 5.7% were former smoker, and the remaining 9.6% were current smokers. Responses to the questions about knowledge and awareness towards electronic cigarettes highlighted sub-optimal levels throughout the sample. The vast majority (87.4%) answered that ECs can generate addiction. Regarding EC use as smoking cessation method, only the 35.2% indicated ECs to be an effective. None of the collected characteristics was found as significantly associated with students’ level of knowledge and perceptions. Conclusions: As students are nowadays asked to build a complete passport of their medical skills, reviewing existing training programmes is necessary to address correct knowledge about this topic, also by implementing most effective educational paradigms applicable in school of medicine. *Correspondence to: Josep Maria Ramon-Torrell, Bellvitge Biomedical Research Institute (IDIBELL), Preventive Medicine Department, University Hospital of Bellvitge, Feixa Llarga s/n, L’Hospitalet de Llobregat, 08907, Catalonia, Spain, E-mail: jmramon@ub.edu","PeriodicalId":93179,"journal":{"name":"Health education and care","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67468985","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The multifactorial, persistent, invisible, subjective and unpredictable nature of this problem challenge patients’ beliefs in their ability to influence and manage the physical and mental symptoms of fatigue. The objective of this study was to evaluate a new, cognitive behavioural approach, addressing key factors in maintaining and exacerbating symptoms of fatigue. Methods: The study is an observational longitudinal pilot study with observations at three time-points including patients with rheumatic inflammatory disease who had persistent fatigue, recruited from a rheumatology outpatient clinic. A cognitive behavioural approach was developed and applied. Levels of fatigue, pain, and depressive symptoms were measured at baseline, immediately after the intervention, and three months post intervention. ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT03216616. July 13, 2017. Results: The study population included 40 participants with rheumatic inflammatory disease and persistent fatigue. Mean disease duration was 14 (11) years (SD), and mean age was 45 (10) years (SD). Repeated measure Analysis of variance showed statistically significant improvement in self-reported fatigue and depressive symptoms immediately after the intervention and at 3 months follow-up. There was no change in pain (Visual Analogue Scale) during follow-up. Conclusions: The results indicate a promising beneficial effect of this pragmatic cognitive behavioural intervention targeting fatigue and depressive symptoms, sustained 3 months post treatment. The efficacy should be confirmed in a randomized controlled clinical","PeriodicalId":93179,"journal":{"name":"Health education and care","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67468927","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
