Abstract

PURPOSE
This study was to investigate the factors affecting smoking behavior in patients with pulmonary tuberculosis.
METHODS
The participants were 130 pulmonary tuberculosis patients at a national tuberculosis hospital. Using a descriptive survey design, data were collected from January to March in 2016 and were analyzed using binominal logistic regression.
RESULTS
As a result of a correlation analysis of the data, depression had a significant positive correlation with smoking (r=.19, p=.030), stress (r=.54, p < .001), respectively. And depression had a significant negative correlation with smoking-related self-efficacy (r=−.20, p=.023). Smokingrelated self-efficacy, smoking (r=−.79, p < .001), and stress (r=−.23, p=.008) had a significant negative correlation with each other, respectively. The factors affecting the smoking behavior were smoking-related self-efficacy (OR=1.46, p < .001), sex (OR=67.36, p=.001), occupation (OR=17.51, p=.014), and depression (OR=1.16, p=.024). Those factors explained 84.7% (Negelkerke's R2=.847) of pulmonary tuberculosis patients' smoking behavior.
CONCLUSION
Developing and applying a prevention eduction for reducing depression and enhancing smoking-related self-efficacy may become a venue toward good prognosis of the patients with pulmonary tuberculosis.
