Resumo: | Objectives: Considering the increased prevalence of electronic cigarette use and its consequences on the health of users, this study was designed to evaluate the use and knowledge of EC among medical students at a university center in Northeastern Brazil. Methods: This is a cross-sectional observational study, in which sociodemographic data were collected through questionnaires applied to medical students from the first to the twelfth semester. Results: The survey included the participation of 248 students. It was observed that 25 undergraduates (10.1%) claimed to have high understanding about EC, 116 (46.8%) reported to have medium understanding, and 94 (37.9%) low level of knowledge. Furthermore, more than half of the students (53.2%) have already made use of the device. Of these, 38.7% reported vaporizing eventually and 14.5% vaporized daily. Conclusion: Therefore, we highlight the importance of an earlier and more complete approach about the harms of EC to undergraduate medical students to make them partners in the dissemination of information to lay people, including students from other courses and patients. |

Métodos: Se trata de un estudio observacional transversal, en el que se recolectaron datos sociodemográficos a través de cuestionarios aplicados a estudiantes de medicina del primero al duodécimo semestre. Resultados: La encuesta contó con la participación de 248 estudiantes. Se observó que 25 estudiantes (10,1%) afirmaron tener un nivel alto de conocimiento sobre AE, 116 (46,8%) reportaron un nivel medio de conocimiento y 94 (37,9%) un nivel bajo de conocimiento. Además, más de la mitad de los estudiantes (53,2%) ya han hecho uso del dispositivo. De ellos, el 38,7% informó vaporizar eventualmente y el 14,5% vaporizar diariamente. Conclusión: Por lo tanto, destacamos la importancia de un abordaje más temprano y más completo sobre los daños de la AE a los estudiantes de medicina para convertirlos en socios en la difusión de información a los legos, incluidos estudiantes de otros cursos y pacientes.Objetivos: Considerando o aumento da prevalência do uso de cigarro eletrônico e suas consequências na saúde dos usuários, este estudo foi desenhado para avaliar o uso e o conhecimento sobre CE entre estudantes de medicina de um centro universitário do Nordeste do Brasil.
