- W2570464557 abstract "Tobacco use is a leading preventable cause of disease, disability and death worldwide. To expand the fight against the tobacco epidemic, WHO has introduced the MPOWER package of six proven policies: 1.- Monitor tobacco use and prevention policies, 2.- Protect people from tobacco smoke, 3.- Offer help to quit tobacco use 4.- Warn about the dangers of tobacco 5.-Enforce bans on tobacco advertising, promotion and sponsorship, and 5.- Raise taxes on tobacco. The aim of this study was to evaluate the student's perception about the effectiveness of each intervention. Students from public and private universities in Panama City were surveyed. Students were asked to evaluate each policy in a binary answer (less effective or very effective). Chi squared test was used to compare answers between smokers and never smokers. 302 students answered the questionnaire: 157 females (52%) and 145 males (48%). Median age was 21 years. There were 73 smokers (24.2%) and 229 never smokers (75.8%). Median age of start smoking was 16 years (10-25), median of cigarettes per week was 6 (1-48). There were not discrepancies in effectiveness between the two groups in monitoring tobacco use policies (p=0.31). 56% of never smokers and 28% of smokers considered that protect people from tobacco smoke is very effective (p<0.001). Offer help to quite tobacco is considered very effective in 31% of smokers versus 52% of never smokers (p=0.003). To require effective package warning labels is very effective in 24.6% of smokers and 48% of never smokers (p<0.0001). Implement counter-tobacco advertising is equally effective for half of both groups (p=0.06). To obtain free media coverage of anti-tobacco activities is very effective in 53% of never smokers and 32% of smokers (p= 0.002). To enforce bans on tobacco advertising promotion and sponsorship is very effective in 46% of never smokers and 52% of smokers (p=0.34). Increase tax rates for tobacco products and ensure that they are adjusted periodically to keep pace with inflation and rise faster than consumer purchasing power is very effective for 46% of smokers and 57% of never smokers (p=0.09). Strengthen tax administration to reduce the illicit trade in tobacco products did not show difference in effectiveness of both groups (p=0.15). MPOWER policies are useful to prevent smoking. The perception of the effectiveness of each intervention varies according tobacco use." @default.
