Abstract

Des mesures de monoxyde de carbone ont été prises sans prévenir les étudiants à l'université de Vienna. Les mesures de CO dans l'expiration aident à expliquer le comportement de fumeur. Le cut off point était à 11 ppM. Les mesures de 173 étudiants de médecine ont montré qu'il y avait environ seulement 9% des étudiants qui sont des fumeurs actifs. Le comportement des fumeurs a encore été recherché par des questionnaires. Selon les renseignements tous les étudiants sauf un avec des valeurs au-dessus de 10 ppM se specifient comme fumeurs actifs. La mesure du CO remplacera dans le futur la question concernant le nombre de cigarettes fumées. Les étudiants ont également eût l'occasion d'apprendre une nouvelle „technique de diagnose”.
